I\u2019m in love with the Xbox Series X. Waiting for it to arrive was one of the longest weeks of my life<\/a>, but since it got here? Heaven<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Now, one of the interesting elements about this generation of consoles is the lack of an obvious graphical wow<\/em> factor. In other upgrade cycles there\u2019s been a clearer visual upgrade, while with the Series X and PS5, improved graphics is something you notice more when you go back to the previous machines<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This means that, for a lot of people, there\u2019s not a clear reason to get a new machine. But there is one. A huge, glorious one. So, bow down, to the Xbox\u2018s Quick Resume.<\/p>\n

God, I adore Quick Resume so much. I want the scientists across the world to drop what they\u2019re doing and make Quick Resume into a physical being, so I can bust it out of whatever twisted lab it was made in and we can elope together, and start a new life in the Appalachians.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut Callum,\u201d you cry, clawing at the earth so soil lodges itself in the webs between your fingers, \u201cwhat the hell actually is<\/em> Quick Resume?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOh child,\u201d I say, kneeling down and kissing your forehead like I\u2019m the Pope or some shit, \u201cQuick Resume is a feature on the Xbox Series S and Series X that allows you to switch between a number of games instantaneously.\u201d<\/p>\n

At this point, I imagine you\u2019d ask why the tone and rhythm of the dialogue switched completely in that second half, then I\u2019d get into a huff, and storm off. That leaves us here.<\/p>\n

Basically, Quick Resume should work with up to five games at once \u2014 and you can move between them as though they were literally just paused. Honestly, it completely changes the way you play.<\/p>\n

Currently, I\u2019ve been spending most of my gaming time between the intense action and story-driven Assassin\u2019s Creed: Valhalla <\/em>and the more casual Tony Hawk\u2019s Pro Skater 1 + 2<\/em> remaster. Quick Resume allows me to switch between these two titles almost instantaneously, meaning that when I get tired of sneaking around and slaughtering scores of Anglo Saxons, I can spend some time skating around schools.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t wax lyrical enough about how refreshing and fun and magical this is.<\/p>\n
