people who game more than me (Switch is the only console I’ve owned since PS3):
would an XBox Series S be noticeably worse than splurging for the X/PS5, and do we think the CFB game will be fine on it?
Basically the S can only do 1440p in best case scenario, but if you don’t care about gaming in 4K you’d be fine. I debated getting one versus playing on the PS5 Digital Edition we have and ended up passing just to save money
Some games have banged off the Series S' lower memory capacity (RIP Baldur's Gate 3 split-screen coop), but Madden hasn't been one of them from what I've heard, so CFB should be fine.
