We’ve been feeling like a kite lately, thanks to all the next-gen fumes we’ve been breathing in in the run-up to the Xbox Series X and PS5 launch. While I’m sure both consoles will be fabulous new machines to play with, I’m leaning towards the Xbox Series X right now thanks to Microsoft’s transparency around the cute obsidian brick.
They’ve showcased their hardware in various previews, detailed the games that arrive in a straightforward way, and allowed game journalists an early hands-on time with the preview consoles, painting a very complete picture in the process. Sony, on the other hand, has hit fans over the head with a rolled up newspaper while keeping quieter than a bully in court.
But finally, Finally, it seems the scales can be balanced, as we take a look at a flaw in the Xbox Series X design: it is very hot. Consoles have always given off heat, but the Xbox Series X apparently generates enough heat to spoil a Predator’s thermal vision. “The X Series is hot, really hot! It doesn’t make any noise, but damn, it’s hot! The console emits heat like crazy. It is almost like a chimney pit. You can heat your floor with it, ”said Ken Bogard of Jeux Video via VGC translation.
Giant Bomb co-host Jeff Bakalar also commented on the insane heat levels, saying “this just plugged into standby behind me and you guys, everything is kind of toasty.”
It seems like the way a lot of the other consoles were doing things while you weren’t using them, it looks like this thing might be doing something while you’re not using it, to the point where it needs to exhaust the heat.
It’s worth noting that people who own an Xbox Series X right now have preview units. The hardware inside those cubes is pre-release tech, so maybe the final Xbox Series X won’t burn your home if left near something flammable. So far, that appears to be the only chink in the Xbox Series X armor on a technical level, as reviewers have praised other aspects of the device, such as its incredibly quiet design and its ability to keep multiple games on standby using the SSD. . and Xbox Velocity software.
