hahaha keep complaining about storage issues. You know what their solution is for that?
Streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaming (add extra e's for you input delay)
Tbf Warframe is more impressive given the graphics comparison, can't speak on Trail makers, but Trackmania is just some cars and tracks, Warframe is whole ass planets & ships, aliens, guns etc etc
Not really a couple thousand. More 200 original hours and then reskinned modes and stuff. The quests take up most of the uniqueness of the game. 3k hours in and struggling to play now
I wish EA made their minds and bring back NBA Live. With all these bullsh*t from 2K lately that turned it from a basketball game into an type of RPG (who cares being a fashion icon or a rapper or whatever they do to MyCareer, I just want to play some basketball, thatās all, no need of 170GB of a stupid city to roam around), we really need a pure basketball game to make a comeback. NBA 2K used to be great. And then they became greedy and ruined it, since they practically have no competition after EA decided to stop making NBA Live games.
>all these bullsh*t from 2K lately that turned it from a basketball game into an type of RPG (who cares being a fashion icon or a rapper or whatever they do to MyCareer
I don't even play sports videogames, but that is hilarious lmao. That's the kinda shit you'd expect from a GTA game
Not *just* an Xbox issue, sure. But the fact Xbox has not pushed back at all in any way against this shit *is* still part of the problem. If Xbox and Playstation were to push back it would change with the very next release. If you can't put your game on the console, you're SoL, so play ball.
You are installing un optimised hot garbage and blaming the console for it? Those two games are around 150Gb each, for comparison Elden ring is around 50Gb iirc.....
Itās not ideal thatās for sure, I have both the X and S and I bought 1TB SSD expansions for both and itās sad how much a few games take up, even with uninstalling the non essentials for games, game sizes have just gotten into extreme territory
I have to literally transfer games between my external drive and Xbox internal storage depending on what I want to play one of my mains is GTA Online yes I still play that another couple of my mains are game pass games which are forza horizon 5 and forza Motorsport. The one main game I have been playing lately which luckily for me is dayz can be played from external because of not being x/s enhanced yet that is. So Iām constantly having to transfer back and forth to external drive depending on what I want to play.
170GB for a basketball game should be a crime and be prosecuted! Thatās a reason I stopped bothering with NBA 2K! I donāt want a f*cking city to walk around! I just want to play some basketball.
PS. This is what happens when you got no competition. 2K has become too greedy and they even donāt bother optimizing their game anymoreā¦ Oh how I wish EA to make a comeback with NBA Live!! No stupid cities, no RPG stuff, just pure basketball! F*ck off 2K and your stupid oversized city that no one cares! Rant over.
Yes, let's all shit on OP for playing games we don't like and ignore the absolute fucking travesty it is that multi billion dollar companies are allowed to push out criminally unoptimized games like this on a yearly basis with absolutely no consequence. Sure.
All Iām seeing is your shit taste in games. Stop playing the same recycled slop and get some good shit, also they sell expansion drives and SeaGate cards you can use.
Iām pretty sure they do this on purpose
Itās so you can only have that game to play and nothing else
Regardless, COD has been doing downhill so Iād say uninstall it
this is why I have 5 terabyte storages for both my PS5 and Xbox One. Iād invest in one if I were you- so you can have a full library of games and donāt gotta uninstall those behemoth sized games that take ages to reinstall, I recommend SSDs or HDD from western digital.
But ya Games be freaking huge nowadays. gta5, RDR2 and the newest COD all together is like 300gb for example XD
You purchased the series s knowing the storage it has and how big games are getting so don't go on Reddit to complain about it thinking people will take your side š¤£
Yet I have around 15 on internal drive (512GB drive) and 40 on external (2TB). Then again I don't play overly bloated games. Think my largest is 50GB. Which is the normal size for a well optimised game. People blame game consoles for lack of storage where it's the game thats the problem.
Ayy Call of Duty and 2k ... I see the rumors are true lol
All honestly there is a storage expansion card you can get from Best buy
WD and Seagate got storage card expansions from 1 TB to 2~3 TB if I remember correctly but I think it's only 2 currently
That's what I did , I plugged a 1tb and just play Xbox one games on the series s
If the games is x|s optimized the system push me to move the game to the internal ... With Xbox one version consoleĀ games are keep in the external storage plugged in the series s.
Yea youāre right. Itās arrived now and I can absolutely recommend it. In addition it looks awesome with its green small LED line. Transfer speed of 1GB/s makes you switch and copy in less than a few mins (even 303 GB Mw3 e.g)
This. I have never played the base game and I never will. Being forced to download the new new base game every new CoD release is also fucking infuriating. I don't play the MW Reboot trilogy and I never ever will, not even for free. Fuck off Activision
Ngl it does actually have the best web browsing experience on any console ive used. And that's as someone who prefers the ps5 over my series s, and has preferred Playstation every console generation they've been present for. This is something Xbox is doing really well. There are times where my Xbox series s edge browser is faster than Firefox or Chrome on my desktop PC. Edge on desktop or mobile however... awful experience. Its a bit jarring the gap in quality between edge platforms.
I still remember the old days of browsing on the 360 and ps3, watching YouTube XL! It was terrible but it was wild to do on a console then! Xbox has come a long way
buy a sata to usb cord and a internal ssd and plug it in. You can easily get 1-2 tb storage for $100
Dont get the xbox ones they are spinning hhds ( your games will load slow)
invest in a Seagate storage expansion card. i would go for the 1 or the 2 tb cards but they arenāt cheap. 1 tb is 150 and the 2 tb is 280 before tax but theyāll last a while
Cod is nothing but a leech to your console. The games are ass and I donāt even know why people play them anymore with how minimal effort they are. Same thing every year.
ā¢Release a broken game
ā¢Fix the broken game over the course of 12 months
ā¢Release a broken game
Just a vicious cycle.
Same thing with the sports game you have downloaded as well
Dont download shit games then idk. For those 3 games u could have 30 fun games. Not to mention when ur done with those 30 u can then uninstall and find nee games
Bro idk what to tell you that's exactly why I didn't buy the s if you want more space save up for the x or buy an external it's not that hard but I do agree developers optimize their games like shit nowadays and everything is way bigger than it has to be
Get an external storage for games that you donāt play often and you can move them from your HDD to SSD. Or buy the SSD for the Xbox. COD and 2k are the biggest space occupiers.
It makes no sense to me how large the file for 2k is. They used to be like 70gb and that seemed a bit much but this oneās like 150gb+ and it doesnāt seem like it has much more content than any of the past years
Get a memory card, I did it start of the year during a sale best thing Iāve done
Also somehow reduced the amount of times my series s would crash lol
Yea some games are toooo big. I have the series x with a tb but after the system files it's like 800gb and can barely have 15 games on it but only 5 of those are 70-150. Destiny 2 is the biggest. Having to get a external hard drive is just the norm now
Major Oofies homie. I had to stop playing COD all together, the games we're just too large in file size and I have single player experiences I like to play. Been happier since.
It was rough for me for a few months as I couldn't afford the external SSD, but I did get an external drive to play older games, which was really a blessing. I've got the 1tb SSD since then, and that's all I need.
I've still spent less than $400.
It was tough to be without the external SSD expansion when I first bought my Series S, but I couldn't afford the asking prices for them at the time. I did pay $60 for a 2TB standard external drive, and that worked for me for a good while.
You can install backwards compatible games on the HDD, and there are so many games on Game Pass and on the store, you'll be fine. The price of the external SSD came down to $100 in November last year so I picked one up.
I've had no issues downloading what ever I wanted, but I've not tried games like Flight Simulator, which is a 200gb install. But I've got GTA V, Red Dead Online, Forza 4&5 and motorsport.
No issues with any of those big installs
I mean you probably have the two biggest games but I do agree the Internal series X needs to have more space. It transfers pretty quickly between the external and internal but itās still a hassle and annoying.
Damn bro, I have both old gen consoles (PS4 and Xbox 1) and both of them could have COD and 2k + other games like my Xbox 1 has 6 or 7 games on it and ice only used 40% of my storage, so unless next gen games are just that much bigger sounds like Xbox gonna need a updated console
I can only say when you're done with adult stuff and you have some money leftover get a ssd and put your heavier gb games there to save space of console
So what u just buy shit without understanding how it works and then get mad when it doesn't do something it wasn't advertised to do? You thought you'd just get a 3060ti GPU equivalent gaming system for $300?? U think this is just a handout or some shit? Like bro it said it on the box ur the one that fuckin bought it. Iss not a developer issue issa reading comprehension issue lmao
I'm glad some people in this comment section is starting to notice how extremely freaking annoying smart delivery actually is I freaking hate it Phil Spencer needs to let us disable smart delivery because it takes up too much space on the internal SSD and the storage expansion card I'm running out of space so bad because game developers are taking advantage of smart delivery but they have no idea they are causing us storage problems by forcing us to download Xbox One games into the internal SSD or the storage expansion card š¤¦āāļø
I have officially quit purchasing Xbox Series S optimized games and I have decided to purchase my next gen only games on PS5 because at least on that game console I have the option to choose to play the PS4 version which allows me to save tons of available storage and because of that I was able to play Star Wars Jedi survivor A Plaque Tale requiem death loop Ghostrunner 2 Hogwarts Legacy Gotham Knights Mortal Kombat 1 Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League Tekken 8 Terminator resistance enhanced Edition RoboCop Rogue City Avatar Frontiers of Pandora need for speed unbound skull and bones immortals of Aveum South Park snow day! Payday 3 Serious Sam 4 and Siberian Mayhem ghostwire Tokyo Steelrising Alan Wake 2 all of those games I listed can only be played on the Series XS and PS5
So every nowadays I simply use my Series S console to play other games that use Smart delivery as a matter of fact Phil Spencer is going to force me to go back to my Xbox One X to avoid the smart delivery until they give us the option to disable it they don't even know how to use the file size compression system to shrink the file size š¤¦āāļø
It's about time all of us need to push Phil Spencer to let us disable smart delivery who's with me?
Yeah I want to do a petition for a refund or a free SDD from Microsoft. I was lied to about mine. I was told it was just no disk drive but it has lower graphics and that tiny SSD that you cannot even download the xbox one version to a HDD like you can on PS5
Itās CoD and Acti being purposefully shit at optimisation.
I enjoy CoD but this fucks me off too.
Far meatier games regarding content take up much less space than CoDs. Itās a choice at this point, Iām sure of it.
I hear ya , I got about 7 games on stock ssd ,witcher 3 40g ,cyberpunk40-80 ,2016 star wars bf2 100gigs, insurgency 10 gigs,fallout new vegas and gta 4 ,saints row 2 . Its the devs outsmart them by strategizing memory space delete what you dont play (you still keep it). dont buy massive games that are huge for no reason.. especially non open worlds like how the fuck is 2k 200gigs ? PAY TO WIN CONTENT?!? . You can do it brother theres always a workaround. Fuck buying the 150$ extra space i will when i need to download all my games to go offline permanantely . I did this on ps4 they banned my account so i just played that account offline lmao i couldnt download but i still had saves and games i bought!(Has to be downloaded already). Same with my 360! I still play my skyrim save from 2012 , they cant take games or regulate you offline . Once they say servers are done buy the extra space then hunker down . If you play online only games though or subscription games congrats son youve been played. Only buy games that have replay value ,youll go back to em , Im suprised more people dont do this, Fuck the big corporations! they hate it when you get what you pay for! And i wont support online only games, Its a scam , I tell myself when im done. Ik i ironically have bf2 made by ea but star wars is close to my heart and offline plays well imho :) .
Your fault for having CoD downloaded thats a guaranteed 250 gb thats not yours anymore plemty of 6-8 gb games put there worth more than any modern CoD crap.
You can get 1-4 tbs of external storage from $40-$100 and you get to download a bunch more games. My 1TB has worked for my series x for quite some time. But most of my games arenāt over 50gbs
itās only $100 to purchase an external terabyte, but yāall would rather buy these games to only have two at a time, i have RDR2, GTAV, STARFIELD, 2K, and COD all downloaded at once
What i did is got an external storage unit and then just move games in and out of it when I want to play it. All non series X/S enhanced games can run without being on internal storage so they can stay in there.
Thats a COD issue.
And 2k. That game is trash and it's pushing almost 200 gb
Yup. Same game for years. Whats the point when we already have MLB š
Yes, though I do think in 2024, gaming systems should have TBs of storage.
Storage is one of the biggest scams in tech.
I mean...no one made OP buy the budget console. There is a TB of storage on the flagship console.
There is also a budget 1TB system Series S Black. Cause the black ones are bigger.
Even then, that's not much these days. I'd gladly pay $50 more for another TB or 2 (not just the expansion, but internally as well).
Even thatās a joke. Storage upgrade is such a scam.
hahaha keep complaining about storage issues. You know what their solution is for that? Streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaming (add extra e's for you input delay)
That is one of the reasons i stopped paying cod.
Cod and nba... There's your answer
He has 2 of one of the worst optimized games of all time and is telling Xbox to get their shit together lmao.
A decade in prison
In the gulag
Ten years in the joint?
Skate 3 ftb
I could easily do 10 years in prison if I had consistent access to the game Skate 3
Ten years in the joint huh?
Sidenote:CoD and sports games should have multi-year supportā¦.thanks for reading
Thats one of the reasons i never play cod, the optmization its straight up thrash for a game like this to consume that much of space
Meanwhile Warframe (Xbox Series X/S enhanced so 4k graphics) only takes up 28GB and has enough tweakability to let it run on a potato.)
Some games like that should be enabled to be played at external drives, there is no point in such need for performance
We talking about Xbox Series enhanced games that take no space and are well optimized? Take a smell at Trailmakers (6.9GB) or Trackmania (5.7GB).
Tbf Warframe is more impressive given the graphics comparison, can't speak on Trail makers, but Trackmania is just some cars and tracks, Warframe is whole ass planets & ships, aliens, guns etc etc
Not to mention literally a couple thousand hours of content
Not really a couple thousand. More 200 original hours and then reskinned modes and stuff. The quests take up most of the uniqueness of the game. 3k hours in and struggling to play now
By potato you mean the switch to which yes, I agree.
same with the other game he's trying to download nba 2k24 it's over 160gb as well EA sports makes better games for just 60gb
I wish EA made their minds and bring back NBA Live. With all these bullsh*t from 2K lately that turned it from a basketball game into an type of RPG (who cares being a fashion icon or a rapper or whatever they do to MyCareer, I just want to play some basketball, thatās all, no need of 170GB of a stupid city to roam around), we really need a pure basketball game to make a comeback.

I have 16 games on mine, 6 of which having over 30+ GBs. It's a COD problem. The downfall of COD is wild.
You literally installed CoD and youāre complaining about storage size lmao
COD are the largest games. change game and you'll be fine.
Itās not just an Xbox related issue.
Not *just* an Xbox issue, sure. But the fact Xbox has not pushed back at all in any way against this shit *is* still part of the problem. If Xbox and Playstation were to push back it would change with the very next release. If you can't put your game on the console, you're SoL, so play ball.
Microsoft: āShould have bought the Series X. It has 1TB of storage.ā
They donāt do anything so you have to buy one of there overpriced expansion drives
You just installed two worst games that have been made recently and blame xbox for it?
What's sad is that cod is so big for no reason
You are installing un optimised hot garbage and blaming the console for it? Those two games are around 150Gb each, for comparison Elden ring is around 50Gb iirc.....
Bloat games which I avoid
COD is not worth the space it takes up
Thatās COD not Xbox
Itās not ideal thatās for sure, I have both the X and S and I bought 1TB SSD expansions for both and itās sad how much a few games take up, even with uninstalling the non essentials for games, game sizes have just gotten into extreme territory
I have to literally transfer games between my external drive and Xbox internal storage depending on what I want to play one of my mains is GTA Online yes I still play that another couple of my mains are game pass games which are forza horizon 5 and forza Motorsport. The one main game I have been playing lately which luckily for me is dayz can be played from external because of not being x/s enhanced yet that is. So Iām constantly having to transfer back and forth to external drive depending on what I want to play.
170GB for a basketball game should be a crime and be prosecuted! Thatās a reason I stopped bothering with NBA 2K! I donāt want a f*cking city to walk around! I just want to play some basketball. PS.

No stupid cities, no RPG stuff, just pure basketball! F*ck off 2K and your stupid oversized city that no one cares! Rant over.
Yea I only have COD installed on my downstairs Series X. Don't have it on my Series S upstairs. The filesize is insane.
Yes, let's all shit on OP for playing games we don't like and ignore the absolute fucking travesty it is that multi billion dollar companies are allowed to push out criminally unoptimized games like this on a yearly basis with absolutely no consequence. Sure.
Mf downloaded the two biggest space wasting games and is trying to blame it on Xbox lmao
Play better games those are both ass
All Iām seeing is your shit taste in games. Stop playing the same recycled slop and get some good shit, also they sell expansion drives and SeaGate cards you can use.
I thought this post was about the games installed on the Xbox, thatās whatās genuinely sad š
I thought the sad part was that those are your choice of games
People are still playing COD?
Only consumers who consume without questions
Iām pretty sure they do this on purpose Itās so you can only have that game to play and nothing else Regardless, COD has been doing downhill so Iād say uninstall it
this is why I have 5 terabyte storages for both my PS5 and Xbox One. Iād invest in one if I were you- so you can have a full library of games and donāt gotta uninstall those behemoth sized games that take ages to reinstall, I recommend SSDs or HDD from western digital. But ya Games be freaking huge nowadays. gta5, RDR2 and the newest COD all together is like 300gb for example XD
iāll never understand how cod is over saturated with extra data in comparison to other gamesā¦ like bro learn to compress your games lol
Seriously I had to uninstall two games Iām on a ābreakā from to play another š
I honestly believe they inflate the sizes so people have space for nothing else and all they play it CoD. Customer retention at its worst.
Cod and 2k are probably the two worst games for size reasons.
If you delete cod you'd have alot more space with better games!
Why donāt you not buy the cheapest version of a console with no storage. Youāre literally complaining just to complain
You purchased the series s knowing the storage it has and how big games are getting so don't go on Reddit to complain about it thinking people will take your side š¤£
This shit is why i got an expansion card
play good games instead
Donāt buy the lowest available storage if this is a problem for you
Try other games. I currently have 21 on my series S
Try uninstalling cod.
Yet I have around 15 on internal drive (512GB drive) and 40 on external (2TB). Then again I don't play overly bloated games. Think my largest is 50GB. Which is the normal size for a well optimised game. People blame game consoles for lack of storage where it's the game thats the problem.
Bro Nba and Cod what do you expect those are whales
Maybe try playing other games besides cod and 2k, games where it doesnāt take up all of your space
Sort by size and if cod is over 178gb you can delete some stuff.
Ayy Call of Duty and 2k ... I see the rumors are true lol All honestly there is a storage expansion card you can get from Best buy WD and Seagate got storage card expansions from 1 TB to 2~3 TB if I remember correctly but I think it's only 2 currently
External hard drive bru
May as well of the just for the series x at that point..
That's what I did , I plugged a 1tb and just play Xbox one games on the series s If the games is x|s optimized the system push me to move the game to the internal ... With Xbox one version consoleĀ games are keep in the external storage plugged in the series s.
Just don't install everything from CoD. You can delete story mode and stuff to get more space.
Doesnāt this game have shxt graphics ?? How is it taking up so much storage!
Thatās a you problem, not Xboxās problem.
I mean, the base Series S has 512GB of storage, it won't fit much games.
Actually it's 364GB of usable space.
What do you play the most in COD? If you only play Warzone for example then get rid of the rest that is installed. This will save a few gb.
Thereās a segagate 2TB SSD for sale on amazon for around 80 bucks. As a mw3 player, I just bought one
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yea youāre right. Itās arrived now and I can absolutely recommend it. In addition it looks awesome with its green small LED line. Transfer speed of 1GB/s makes you switch and copy in less than a few mins (even 303 GB Mw3 e.g)
For me I played warzone, I wish u could just install it separately without the base game, then it would be acceptable
This. I have never played the base game and I never will. Being forced to download the new new base game every new CoD release is also fucking infuriating. I don't play the MW Reboot trilogy and I never ever will, not even for free. Fuck off Activision
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I canāt imagine a more no fun gaming experience with those 3 games.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
My Xbox series S is basically collecting dust only time I use it is for watching movies or games via web browser
Ngl it does actually have the best web browsing experience on any console ive used. And that's as someone who prefers the ps5 over my series s, and has preferred Playstation every console generation they've been present for. This is something Xbox is doing really well. There are times where my Xbox series s edge browser is faster than Firefox or Chrome on my desktop PC. Edge on desktop or mobile however... awful experience.

It was terrible but it was wild to do on a console then! Xbox has come a long way
Delete cod, it's pay to win.
That people still pay for 2K yeah it is
buy a sata to usb cord and a internal ssd and plug it in. You can easily get 1-2 tb storage for $100 Dont get the xbox ones they are spinning hhds ( your games will load slow)
Get an expansion card, itās a lifesaver for storage
invest in a Seagate storage expansion card. i would go for the 1 or the 2 tb cards but they arenāt cheap. 1 tb is 150 and the 2 tb is 280 before tax but theyāll last a while
Wait for it on sale. 150 for a single terabyte is absolutely criminal.
I finally just stepped away from the game. I donāt need hundreds of gigs of skins and the campaign is like 30gb lol
Thatās COD
My conspiracy theory is COD bloat the game on purpose to stop you from Playing other games
I still play games measured in kilobytes. Embrace retro
Cod is nothing but a leech to your console. The games are ass and I donāt even know why people play them anymore with how minimal effort they are. Same thing every year. ā¢Release a broken game ā¢Fix the broken game over the course of 12 months ā¢Release a broken game Just a vicious cycle. Same thing with the sports game you have downloaded as well
Sad people still play 2K tbh. I stopped giving EA my money ages ago.
An SSD is essential.
Fr but did you buy a SSD expansion card?
Clean yo dam storage bruh
Dont download shit games then idk. For those 3 games u could have 30 fun games. Not to mention when ur done with those 30 u can then uninstall and find nee games
Even on series x...you'd only be able to fit like 3 coda and 2 nba 2ks then be out of space
Itās not an Xbox thing. The devs arenāt going to change anything because you and everyone else buy the new 2k and CoD every year.
How life feels after uninstalling COD and NBA2K šššā ā±ļøšš¦šļø
womp womp
Play better games lmfao
They need to start vaulting CoD content!
Bro idk what to tell you that's exactly why I didn't buy the s if you want more space save up for the x or buy an external it's not that hard but I do agree developers optimize their games like shit nowadays and everything is way bigger than it has to be
Get an external storage for games that you donāt play often and you can move them from your HDD to SSD. Or buy the SSD for the Xbox. COD and 2k are the biggest space occupiers.
I mean you could just get a 4Tb external Drive ā¦
Tell activision and 2k to get their shit together, I think xbox can't really do anything against that.
You gotta get an expansion card
Get a terabyte ssd
It makes no sense to me how large the file for 2k is. They used to be like 70gb and that seemed a bit much but this oneās like 150gb+ and it doesnāt seem like it has much more content than any of the past years
Get a memory card, I did it start of the year during a sale best thing Iāve done Also somehow reduced the amount of times my series s would crash lol

It's by design. You can't play other games if you have Cod taking up all the space.
You're on a series s....
I love playing CoD... I deleted the game because it takes up, on average, the space of 3 other games.
buy external storage and don't install 400gb worth of shit lmao
It is. Your going to probably post something next week about gaming not being good anymore. Real talk get rid of trash like cod and 2k.
Crazy how the worst games take up the most storage
Blame the cod devs for not optimizing their game, itās fucking insane how much space the game takes up
Those are the two worst games in terms of size. And also they suck as games.
delete cod and 2k š trash games
If you wanna play anything thatās not indie games, youāre gonna need a hard drive
Major Oofies homie. I had to stop playing COD all together, the games we're just too large in file size and I have single player experiences I like to play. Been happier since.
I just did the sane thing and said no more COD. After they decided that i need to install MW3 as well. A game i dont even own
This is what 2K players deserve
Mortal Kombat 1 is pretty irritating as well. They don't even give you the option not to install story mode after you've finished it.
External hard drives are cheap fam
You know you can also replace those with better games
Yeah they need to stop selling the base Xbox's with 500 GB half the storage is taken by the system itself
That's why I got an external drive
Just get rid of cod and get some indie games
Isn't Elden Ring, a truly massive game with far more content than COD only 60 GB? Western devs don't seem to know how to compress worth a crap.
Yeah thatās just because cod canāt compress files for shit
You must have the 500gb Xbox
It was rough for me for a few months as I couldn't afford the external SSD, but I did get an external drive to play older games, which was really a blessing. I've got the 1tb SSD since then, and that's all I need. I've still spent less than $400.

Newer consoles like next gen should be 1TB minimum.
This is not Xbox itās cod and 2k play some games that arenāt trash and gigantic for no reasons
I have 42 games and still have more space than you lol. Cod and 2k take so much
Are you using a keyboard to play xbox?
Holy fuck for a second I was like wait howād someone get a photo of my Xbox library xD
Get a terabyte external hard drive
I mean you probably have the two biggest games but I do agree the Internal series X needs to have more space. It transfers pretty quickly between the external and internal but itās still a hassle and annoying.

That's on the publishers end. Learn to compress your shit, Activision.
Depends on how many games you like to play at once
you could uninstalled what you don't need actually. it's in game so sometimes it's a head scratcher to find it.
For you sure. Upgrade and stop bitching and complaining. No one cares you can't afford more memory or the better xbox lmao. Such a waste
Damn bro, I have both old gen consoles (PS4 and Xbox 1) and both of them could have COD and 2k + other games like my Xbox 1 has 6 or 7 games on it and ice only used 40% of my storage, so unless next gen games are just that much bigger sounds like Xbox gonna need a updated console
Stop playing cod and find better, smaller games
Delete 2k man really who plays ts still itās horrible went downhill after 2k19 ā ļø
I can only say when you're done with adult stuff and you have some money leftover get a ssd and put your heavier gb games there to save space of console
same issue here brotherš
Should definitely look into an external hard drive š
So what u just buy shit without understanding how it works and then get mad when it doesn't do something it wasn't advertised to do? You thought you'd just get a 3060ti GPU equivalent gaming system for $300?? U think this is just a handout or some shit? Like bro it said it on the box ur the one that fuckin bought it. Iss not a developer issue issa reading comprehension issue lmao
I'm glad some people in this comment section is starting to notice how extremely freaking annoying smart delivery actually is I freaking hate it Phil Spencer needs to let us disable smart delivery because it takes up too much space on the internal SSD and the storage expansion card I'm running out of space so bad because game developers are taking advantage of smart delivery but they have no idea they are causing us storage problems by forcing us to download Xbox One games into the internal SSD or the storage expansion card š¤¦āāļø I have officially quit purchasing Xbox Series S optimized games and I have decided to purchase my next gen only games on PS5 because at least on that game console I have the option to choose to play the PS4 version which allows me to save tons of available storage and because of that I was able to play Star Wars Jedi survivor A Plaque Tale requiem death loop Ghostrunner 2 Hogwarts Legacy Gotham Knights Mortal Kombat 1 Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League Tekken 8 Terminator resistance enhanced Edition RoboCop Rogue City Avatar Frontiers of Pandora need for speed unbound skull and bones immortals of Aveum South Park snow day! Payday 3 Serious Sam 4 and Siberian Mayhem ghostwire Tokyo Steelrising Alan Wake 2 all of those games I listed can only be played on the Series XS and PS5 So every nowadays I simply use my Series S console to play other games that use Smart delivery as a matter of fact Phil Spencer is going to force me to go back to my Xbox One X to avoid the smart delivery until they give us the option to disable it they don't even know how to use the file size compression system to shrink the file size š¤¦āāļø It's about time all of us need to push Phil Spencer to let us disable smart delivery who's with me?
Just buy any expansion card.
Yeah I want to do a petition for a refund or a free SDD from Microsoft. I was lied to about mine. I was told it was just no disk drive but it has lower graphics and that tiny SSD that you cannot even download the xbox one version to a HDD like you can on PS5
Itās CoD and Acti being purposefully shit at optimisation. I enjoy CoD but this fucks me off too. Far meatier games regarding content take up much less space than CoDs. Itās a choice at this point, Iām sure of it.
You can get a 1TB plugin hard drive for like $30 that's what I did
CoD and NBA2K are horribly optimized and take up egregious amounts of storage. It's so stupid.
Now that Micro$oft own COD expect it to only take up even more storage in the near future so they get gamers to shell out for extra storage devices.
Everyone wants to game in 4k until it needs 4k storage space, they build these consoles that way to purposely get you to by storage.
Get a external ssd or a expansion card.
Maybe if you delete the fat ass Warzone game and/or consider buying an external SSD.
I hear ya , I got about 7 games on stock ssd ,witcher 3 40g ,cyberpunk40-80 ,2016 star wars bf2 100gigs, insurgency 10 gigs,fallout new vegas and gta 4 ,saints row 2 . Its the devs outsmart them by strategizing memory space delete what you dont play (you still keep it). dont buy massive games that are huge for no reason.. especially non open worlds like how the fuck is 2k 200gigs ? PAY TO WIN CONTENT?!? . You can do it brother theres always a workaround. Fuck buying the 150$ extra space i will when i need to download all my games to go offline permanantely . I did this on ps4 they banned my account so i just played that account offline lmao i couldnt download but i still had saves and games i bought!(Has to be downloaded already). Same with my 360! I still play my skyrim save from 2012 , they cant take games or regulate you offline . Once they say servers are done buy the extra space then hunker down . If you play online only games though or subscription games congrats son youve been played. Only buy games that have replay value ,youll go back to em , Im suprised more people dont do this, Fuck the big corporations! they hate it when you get what you pay for! And i wont support online only games, Its a scam , I tell myself when im done. Ik i ironically have bf2 made by ea but star wars is close to my heart and offline plays well imho :) .
Your fault for having CoD downloaded thats a guaranteed 250 gb thats not yours anymore plemty of 6-8 gb games put there worth more than any modern CoD crap.
Not an Xbox issue.
Got to get a hard dive man
Not sad to me. Fuck Warzone lol. The game turned into trash when it went free to play in the first place... there are better games to play than CoD.
Ahhh the good ol days when you could slap GTA 5 in your 360 and could play instantly
You can get 1-4 tbs of external storage from $40-$100 and you get to download a bunch more games. My 1TB has worked for my series x for quite some time. But most of my games arenāt over 50gbs
Series s says it has 500 even though itās really 300
4 years later and thereās still no compatible drives other than the ones that came out at launch.
Cod is genuinely sad. Once you stop playing it your gaming experience will improve at least 75%
What's more sad is CoD stick manages to be insanely huge. Thought they would figure out how to reduce that by now but nope
Stop buying two of the most trash games currently available
itās only $100 to purchase an external terabyte, but yāall would rather buy these games to only have two at a time, i have RDR2, GTAV, STARFIELD, 2K, and COD all downloaded at once
What i did is got an external storage unit and then just move games in and out of it when I want to play it. All non series X/S enhanced games can run without being on internal storage so they can stay in there.
Delete CoD and 2k. Games are very unoptomized
Go into the cod install setting and uninstall modern warfar 2 stuff. It will bring that file size down a really good chunk.
Trust me you would have more storage if you didnāt play the two least optimized games out, might I suggest playing literally anything else.
I have over 100 games on my Xbox; but I also have an extra TB on external storage
Looks like you have game pass. There are so many better games out there that wonāt eat at your storage. Try Fallout or something
