Head to http://bluechew.com and use promo code INSIDEGAMING to get your first shipment FREE! Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S pre orders have come and gone in a flash. However, things didn’t go quite as seamless as Microsoft would have expected us to believe. During the PS5 pre order chaos Xbox’s marketing teams and Xbox boss Phil Spencer took the opportunity to remind everyone how orderly and seamless the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S launches would be. However, when the fateful day arrived many excited fans and consumers around the world were disappointed to find empty carts, broken websites, and hours of refreshing multiple browsers. This of course hasn’t stopped Microsoft from boasting the “record breaking” level of interest in the new Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. We aren’t actually quite sure what that means but we’re not going to let that stop us from talking about it on today’s edition of Inside Gaming Daily!
