@lilhurk1985187: For their respective pricing, they're pretty much on par with one another spec wise. Of course, developer support is another story entirely.

Might as well just call it Xbox infinity +1 because you can't get any better than that Sony! ?

As I said before, I think the X stands for 10, as in windows 10. Saying Xbox One S and Xbox One X is going to be confusing.

@joshrmeyer:Microsoft has had a thing for X for a long time now. Even a little before the Xbox.

Seriously, look at some of their buildings!

Dumped the codename. No surprise really. Calculated move on their part to release November 7th. Backwards compatabilty is good. So far so good.

@playstationzone: I do not like the name but it is the specs and what it can do is what I care about. Releasing in Nov is not too far away.
