Xbox x series, in first 10 minutes of gameplay I hear 2 pops, and smells like burnt plastic in room

It's all good I wasn't trying to roast you too hard, I was interested in maybe getting a One X or S as well before the Serieses were announced so I totally get your point of view. I'm really bummed out that your console turned out to be a dud. I genuinely hope that Best Buy can make it a quick and easy exchange and that your next one lasts a long time. Sending out nothing but good vibes for you bro.

One time I was really in a bind with some dumb "paperwork getting to the right place" shit and had my drivers license suspended for reasons out of my control. When I finally thought I got it all sorted out I realized the insurance company faxed the wrong paperwork. I was done, ready to give up. My dad said, "Anything worth doing once is worth doing twice" and that weirdly helped me get the motivation to dive back in and get my shit fixed. I hope second time is a charm and you get to just enjoy some games like you deserve. Sending my love!
