You all play with expansion cards. If I need more hard drive space I am just going to grab me an external hard drive like I did with my PS4 and Xbox One. Problem solved.

@Tasuki That's another option, you can store Series games on the external HDD and copy them to the internal SSD when you want to play them as confirmed by Microsoft.
@Tasuki Microsoft has already announced that the expansion cards are the only way to expand memory for Series X games. Other memory options are limited to just for backwards compatible games.
@Grumblevolcano You can store Series games on an external HDD, confirmed by Microsoft. You only need to copy them to the internal SSD when you want to play them.
You can always take your Xbox One games and play them directly off your external hard drive when connected to Xbox Series X. Now for Xbox Series X games, you can certainly store them on your external hard drive, but when you're ready to play them, you're going to want to move them to the internal SSD or the Seagate expansion drive.
@Tasuki from what I can gather an external drive won't read fast enough to load next gen games. Store them on the external and move them to the internal when you want to play them. Seems pretty simple much like using a computer with a regular HDD and an SSD, I'm sure the process is streamlined and straightforward
Perhaps eventually the process could be streamlined, where games in the hard drive are moved to the internal memory when you try to play them, and then automatically archived after some inactivity time or to make space.
Kinda like what the Wii did with the games on the sd card, but keeping the game for a bit longer after playing since these are obviously gonna be considerably heavier. (The Wii would uninstall them immediately).
That makes sense, you launch the game and you are asked if you want to move it to the SDD and launch the game. If you don't have enough space, you are asked to move a game to the external HDD.
Xbox All Access price, including a console and 24 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and EA Play:
Xbox Series S will be available starting from $24.99 a month for 24 months and Xbox Series X will be available starting from $34.99 a month for 24 months.
How much do you think that PS5 and PS 5AD will cost? Do you think that Sony undercut Series X with PS 5AD? It would be a pity if the do that at the last minute.
PS5 digital = £349/€399/$399, PS5 physical = £449/€499/$499
or
PS5 digital = £299/€349/$349, PS5 physical = £399/€449/$449
If Microsoft waited longer (which I think would've happened if the leak didn't occur), I definitely think the 1st option would've happened but I could see the 2nd option happen simply because the Xbox prices are officially announced.
I think that $€500/£450 for PS5 and $€400/£350 for PS5 All-Digital so PS5 All-Digital would be cheaper than Series X. Lower than that like you @Grumblevolcano suggest? It would be a problem for Series X to be undercut like that at the last minute.
If I'm right with my pricing prediction, Series S will sell like hot cakes. It's also better than I expected, I knew it was going to be like Series X but rendering at 1080/1440p with a cheaper GPU and less RAM but I didn't expect it to upscale to 4K so even for people with 4K TVs, Series S is good value.
