Xbox Series S Has Gone From No-Brainer To No Thank You

Xbox Series S Has Gone From No-Brainer To No Thank You https://ift.tt/fvG6q2x Just a couple of years ago, the Xbox Series S felt like a great holiday gift idea. I was able to pick up a console for $250 during Black Friday and introduce my brother to this generation of console gaming. He just had to buy a Game Pass for Console subscription, and he suddenly had access to a big library of current-gen games and all of Xbox’s first-party titles the day they released.

HBO's Game of Thrones spinoff drew in 9.99 million viewers across the two services when it premiered in August. House of the Dragon episodes averaged closer to 30 million when accounting for users catching up later in the season, encore airings on HBO, and things like that. There's no data yet on how Yellowstone compares to that number.
