I'm thinking about buying a new console at launch for the first time in my life. The only games I play are strictly sports games like Madden, NBA2k/NBA Live, NHL, PGA 2k and RBI baseball since I currently have an Xbox. I always buy the latest version so backwards compatibility doesn't mean as much to me. Most sports games are on each system so is there anything else other than price to separate Xbox series X/S vs PS5 in my situation?

Games will possibly run better on Series X. Also whichever console your friends on. PS5 controller could also make a difference with Haptic Feedback. Too many unknowns at the moment.

If you mainly play sports games, the only thing you should worry about is what console all your friends play on.

Let's be honest, though.. going the cheapest console route will probably be your best bet since we know sports games have not changed much lately.

I'm strictly an offline gamer since I have a family and only play when I have time so I don't even play with friends online. I'm also not upgrading my tv to get hdmi 2.1 but my current tv does offer 4k, HDR and native 120mhz so I'm thinking it's either XBox Series S or the digital version of the PS5 since that has actual 4k but will I really know the difference for the potential $100 difference that is being rumored.

I wouldn't purchase the Series S. Either X or Ps5.

I'd probably consider get the S. Framerate and other improvements probably outweigh the hysteria, but if that's a concern we'll see for ourselves soon enough.

I'm hoping the show is coming to xbox and then I'd say I think it'll be slightly better for performance but probably not huge. You will get EA Play soon for game pass so added value there

In my opinion PS5 would be the best bet for an exclusive sports gamer. Most games are cross platform but until it's confirmed for Xbox, you'll definitely have The Show for PS5. Also, if you play the PES series, the option files only work on PS.
