Im not much of a gamer (ironically I make games for a living) but I made a bet with my kids that if the Detroit Lions make the playoffs this year I’ll buy them a system, and its looking like almost a lock to happen, so I want to get in on some Holiday deals.

This is their first non-Nintendo system so I’m a little lost on which way to go at this point in the generation cycle. For reference they’re 7 and 9 year old boys and are gonna be new to gaming that isnt based around crafting or Italian brothers. (i made them use my old NES, then SNES first, then got them a Switch a couple years back)

    For children especially I’d say Xbox. The PS5 gets its strength from remarkable single player story games that will mostly be lost on children. While the Xbox lends its strength to better multiplayer systems and variety games. Plus game pass remains the best deal in gaming with even new games coming to gamepass day one.
