I’m thinking about getting my first non-Nintendo console and I’m torn between the PS5 and the Xbox Series X. I mainly play Fortnite, FIFA/EFC, and driving games like Forza Horizon, which I know is available on PS5 now. I already have two Xbox controllers for my Mac, but most of my family has PS5s. Any recommendations?

Xbox is a better deal overall with Game Pass offering tons of games. If there aren’t any PlayStation exclusives that you’re itching to play, I’d go for the Xbox. Plus, you already have controllers that work with it!
Option 3: Save up and build a gaming PC instead! Just think of the possibilities!
I get the appeal, but I’m a console guy at heart. My Mac does what I need for now.
I’d go with the PS5, mainly because I have doubts about Xbox’s long-term future. It seems like PlayStation is here to stay!
What makes you think Xbox won’t be around much longer?
It really comes down to whether you prefer Game Pass or want to play PlayStation exclusives. If you’re just looking for the cheapest online service, that might sway you too. Just make sure to consider what exclusive games interest you more!
Yeah, that’s exactly my dilemma. I don’t care too much about either side’s exclusives.
But actually, the PS5 is pretty competitively priced right now, especially with bundles!
