Its the most powerful console now and will be again on release of the new gen.Thanks for your replies guys the games I love playing on pc are skyrim, witcher 3, gta, rdr2, anything with a good story and I can take my time with. The reason for not going to win 10 is I am in my comfort zone with 7, hard to explain. I think in 2 years the Xbox may well be the most powerful console but not yet.

Those are multi plats so Xbox would be better
But if you like good story PS5 has plenty of good exclusive story driven games, too.

I must have missed the showcase with the great single player games for Xbox, got a link or anything please?Both Series x and ps5 will have great single player/ multiplayer/ co-op/ versus/ writer story driven/ emergent story driven/games as a service... And both will have bleeding edge tech too.
I agree with others- either or both would be the right choice On the flip side if you only get one you will miss out on something whichever one you go for!

Well in the context of this thread cross platform games don't count because they are available on both consoles obviously. I do however agree that Avowed might be great but until we see some gameplay and not cgi footage we don't really know but the rest I doubt will be great.I’m not posting links (you can google them), but single player campaigns coming to Xbox include but are not limited to- Halo infinite, fable, avowed, hellblade 2, assassins creed Valhalla, cyberpunk, the next baldurs gate, psychonauts 2... Microsoft have invested heavily in new studios, some of whom will focus on single player campaigns (in particular obsidian and ninja theory), but third parties will bring their single player stories too.
The OP is asking one or the other. Yes theres plenty of the same game coming out on both. No need to really point that out. Its the merits of one console over the other that would help to make the choice.I don’t understand why you would ignore a game just because it was also out on another platform. Cyber punk on Xbox is not lessened just because it is also out on PlayStation. That’s a single player game, potentially great, that many are looking forward to that’s coming to Xbox (it may even run and look best on Xbox).

Daz is obviously pointing out that Single Player games isn't really something that Xbox excels in, in comparison to Sony. So if its single player games your after then it might be a factor in your choice of system.
Xbox one X is worlds most powerful console right now and the new Xbox series x out later this year will continue to be the most powerful console for years to comeThanks for your replies guys the games I love playing on pc are skyrim, witcher 3, gta, rdr2, anything with a good story and I can take my time with.

Cyberpunks coming out on both so that's not something you would use as a differentiator (not sure this is even a word lol) between them. What would be a differentiator is that with the Xbox being more powerful, you'd expect it to look better or perhaps even at a better frame rate that the PS5 version.And I was pointing out that Xbox did still have single player games which may be relevant too! The OP might be looking for a mix of types of game. He might like the look of single player games like cyber punk in which case the Xbox having that game is entirely relevant! In fact for first person single player you might be better off with Xbox than PlayStation.
"I love playing on pc are skyrim, witcher 3, gta, rdr2, anything with a good story and I can take my time with."The OP didn’t ask for generic differentiation he asked for ‘any’ advice. In fact he listed the sort of story based games he liked, all multi platform and all from developers who will be bringing out Xbox games. I would say that if there’s a first party developer closest to those types of game he listed it’s obsidian (he could test this out by playing the outer worlds now).
I’m not knocking PlayStation studios action adventures- Spider-Man was one of my favourite games of the current gen. But they might not be the OP’s cup of tea. It’s no good to him if he is told to go ps5 for story games but then finds out that it’s the multiplats and avowed, halo, the medium, call of the sea, gears, and fable that suited him best.
So no I don’t agree that multiplats are irrelevant and I do hold that Xbox may be just as good or better for the OP in terms of story games. It really depends on what he likes.
Edit- he might also prefer playing on one pad over the other.
What should be the biggest selling point for the Series X is Gamepass. That should have a large bearing on someone looking into getting into console gaming for the first time. THe choice on that is second to none, that along with the more powerful system really does make it an easier decision to go for if you're not invested in either ecosystem.
