i bought an xbox series s last summer solely to play nba 2k for when 25 was coming out and it was mostly fine but the amount of times i’ll get on my console and games will just be unplayable because the xbox is overheating is crazy. playing 2k2k now and having the same issues so ik it’s not the game it’s the console not being able to handle it. i just got off work and turned on my xbox for it to be overheating instantly and freezing about every 5 seconds then having me lag out of my game.
