YouTube headz. Game streaming items needed

Posted 27th Nov

Hi all, my son is after some equipment to start recording a uploading his own videos from xbox. I'm under the impression he will need a capture card, a mic, a video camera and some video editing software. Does anyone have any idea about about what patricular brands or products might be good for this as 8nhavnt got much of a clue. Thanks in advance ppl!

Elgato capture cards are supposed to be the best but are quite expensive. Depends on your budget tbh

Does the Xbox not have a basic streaming service built in? Most game platforms do these days.
