Would it be worth it to buy a used Xbox one X if I only have Game Pass? (lemmy.world)

There's a used Xbox one X for sale locally and I'm curious if y'all think it would be worth it in 2023?

I currently play Game Pass games on my very capable PC and on my tablet, and I don't own any physical Xbox games. I'm wanting a device that will let me play on my TV in a room that isn't close to my PC. Although, I eventually plan on running an HDMI over Cat6 cable to connect my PC to the TV.

I tried using the web browser on my tv for game pass, but the lag was terrible.

So now I'm considering buying this cheap Xbox one X to help me solve this problem.

Thanks for any suggestions.

If this is a stopgap solution to your HDMI over Ethernet plan, I would say no. I think it would be smarter to run the display to your TV in another room as long as you don't have connection issues with the controller.
