Microsoft Announces Project Scorpio Console

I am already very happy with the xbox one s since its smaller so I can build a case with a tv to take with me to my truck. X one was too big to become a (laptop) hahaha. Ill play the x one s until the scorpio comes in slim version ;) pre ordered the 2 tera one s cant wait to play on the road :D

You fail to understand, Xbox moved away from generations. Scorpio is still an Xbox one.... Xbox is now a platform like PC, Android, iOS, etc.

No more locking games behind generational hardware upgrades. Now you just upgrade to a new device when you need to.

Xbox has different devices with different pricing points for gamers to choose from. And all games and apps work going forward.

Do your games stop working on Android each year as a new midrange and flagship models are released....no

Microsoft is relying in Moore's law where the transistor count in a chip is doubled every two years. They expect to have cheaper and more powerful SOIC solutions in more than a year from this announcement to the release of the Scorpio console. That's why we can't say that it won't be possible yet

Am I the only one who feels like a 'gaming news' agency where two of the leading reporters blatantly stated they do not remember the last time they turned on one of the top two gaming consoles, just had two reporters give a big argument for why they shouldn't have their jobs?

If you don't do your job, you should not have it. Your job is supposedly games journalist. Meaning you should probably play a system that is generating 25% of new game sales. Unless your job isn't games reporter and is instead shill. Then I guess it's perfectly acceptable.

Of course I don't believe for a second you don't remember the last time you launched the Xbox One. I just think you said that because you were directed to.

Why so many upset pc gamers?

I'm a PC gamer and all I can see is this being great news for us. Consoles becoming more like PC's, higher quality ports, fantastic graphics, the cost of pc hardware coming down to compete.

"true fully uncompressed 4K gaming"

...um....riiiiiiiiight. And let me guess - It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th....

LOL so current gen consoles sucks, right? that's what it needs 'upgrades'. I'm so happy with my R9 280.

The only question that needed to be answered was the price point.

Will Scropio get Street Fighter V? Probablu not......................https://youtu.be/zBwW0_AbC6Y

i was gonna but a xone s...but now that they have announced that all their games would be available on windows 10 as well...whats the point of buying it...

I think Microsoft has a bigger plan for the system after the Scorpio, they are creating a bridge between the Xbox brand and Window 10, probably means they are gonna drop the Xbox brand an just change their console after the Scorpio to run PC games, I wouldn't be suprised if they attempt to buy steam in the next couple of years.

It's going to take a fantastic game line-up before I even think about purchasing. Bought an Xbox One on release day and still haven't gotten my value out of it. Exclusives this generation have sucked terribly: Ryze (trash), Dead Rising 3 (garbage), Kinect Sports Rivals (trash-garbage), THREE(!!!) Forza games (and now a fourth), Halo 5 (343 has officially slaughtered that franchise), Halo MCC (lol), Ori (available on PC), Call of Duty: Robot Edition (Titanfall), and Sunset Overdrive (probably the only true "not also on pc" exclusive that is actually good). There are a couple more that I can't be bothered to remember, but overall it has been an awful generation for xbox. Gonna need to see some real mind-blowing shit for the scorpio before I cast my lot with microsoft again.

Capcom is going to re-re-re-release the Resident evil series in 4K and we are going to buy it again. Gamespot might review it again and the author will probably talk about his or her childhood at some point in the article...

i can't wait to play 4k on the new xbox console at 3 frames per second. Gonna be a blast

The nvidia gtx 1080... its able to do 9 Tflops... and even that can't hit 60fps in some games at 4k... and it costs over 700 dollars. This "6 tflop" machine they claim they are making won't be doing 60fps 4k, and if it does 60 fps at 4k, it will be the lowest textures of any game you've ever seen. Imagine Minecraft, but worse... but hey, its 4k so at least theres no aliasing... even though the textures look like a NES game.

Xbox Scorpio releasing in 2017. So could be in November 15th or 22nd to mark a traditional Xbox release day. I just hope MS does a proper job with Scorpio and actually calls the new Xbox Scorpio

PlayStation will prevail and I'm not that biased because I have a 360 and a ps4 along with a 3ds. Also Xbox and PS3. Xbox is getting too expensive like all vr. There is a reason that we have this level of technology currently. I'm scared that like VR if they get too advanced it won't be affordable. I'm not going to a PC. I've played games before, but I like others prefer the games and feeling of a console. Costs matter!!!!

Unless Microsoft is willing to lose a ton of money selling this console, there is no way it will be in the affordable range for the console market. If the unit install base is small, there will be very few games that will take full advantage of the hardware other then scaling the quality of the graphics, which a PC can do anyway. Depending on the cost a PC with similar capabilities would be a better value.
Though, Microsoft could do a full reversal and sell the console cheap to grab the masses.

I have a broken ps3, which was entirely my fault, an Xbox 360, and a ps4. I am getting the ps neo by trading in ps4. My xbox 360 has been there for a long time, but I am nostalgically connected to my PS3 which I first had years before so I will stick with the much better PlayStation.

Didn't they say that xbox one will run games on 1080p ?!

Maybe some games will run on 4K, but most will be below that
