Baldur’s Gate 3 had to be scaled back for the Series S, but the console still has a right to exist (www.vg247.com)

It'll be the cheapest place, by an absurd margin, to play Baldur's Gate 3.

Absurd is too strong of a word, but 100$ ain't nothing. Not for everyone.

    It's literally 1/3rd more expensive and thats not an insignificant amount. If your rent increased by 1/3rd tomorrow you'd probably be pissed and if you had a 33.33 percent chance of getting struck by lightning by stepping outside tomorrow you'd probably stay indoors that day.

    $100, plus the cost of the mandatory microSD or SSD you'll need to add to even install the game on Deck, plus the $50 discount for the Series S if you have a modicum of patience. The difference is more like $175-200, and last year the Series S was $100 off for Black Friday. Assuming the game is targeting holiday 2023 for Xbox, you could potentially grab the Series S + BG3 for under $300.
