News by Emma Kent Contributor Updated on 8 Sep 2020 36 comments We're now several console reveals into the year, and although the Xbox Series S leaked a little ahead of schedule, the internet has once again produced some colourful and strange reactions to the new piece of tech. You know how this goes. When looking for inspiration for their memes, it seems most people immediately jumped to the nearest available object in their house. Comparisons ranged from washing machines to, well, a cooking range - while some Sony speakers also made it into the mix. pic.twitter.com/9NZ43e13oP- ??????????????

Hopefully the Series S won't also make that much noise. Someone already got that Xbox Series S. pic.twitter.com/xWbJsdXUNx- M.H.

I'll take 120FPS at 1440p, 4K upscaling for games and a custom NVME 512GB SSD to go, thanks. pic.twitter.com/b22UcmD5vr- Gabriele Baroncini (@bbellika) September 8, 2020 To see this content please enable targeting cookies.

A couple of weeks back you may recall the infamous Halo Infinite campaign reveal from which Craig the brute was born, and naturally, fans started demanding a Series S design emblazoned with this meme. Popular battle royale Fall Guys also inspired several designs, while some went the whole hog and redesigned the console with a Minion theme. Release this edition you cowards! pic.twitter.com/4wqDQJDCZG- Mitch Wondin (@Transmecharian) September 8, 2020 To see this content please enable targeting cookies.

As we all know, RGB lighting helps boost your PC's performance, so Corsair created a mock-up of what this would look like when applied to the Series S. Walmart Canada just seemed pretty relieved not to have leaked this one. Can we make a suggestion? ? https://t.co/lhEqHWr4hS pic.twitter.com/tlH4QOlD6u- CORSAIR (@CORSAIR) September 8, 2020 To see this content please enable targeting cookies.
