It's the impressions/reactions video you've been waiting for - and it took time because we wanted to investigate what was shown more deeply. John Linneman an...
I don’t think it was a factor at all, they are both very very close in terms of CPU power (the series S is the same CPU run 200mhz slower), which MS did so any game could easily be run on both by just dropping some graphical fidelity and calling it a day. The fact that they didn’t even try to have some kind of unlocked or 40fps performance mode on the X suggests they are very CPU bound, and the PC system requirements reflect this too, requiring at least a 6 core CPU.
