Lol, I am sure his pic is his idol.
Launch price killed the xbox one. Microsoft's answer to that? A new system with, yet again, the highest launch price of the three.
OKAY....
Whats the price? Can you show me a link to the price of the Scorpio? I would love to read up on this factual claim.

Wrong. PS4 dominated sales because MS screwed their reveal in 2013 The internet went nuts and Sony PS4 gained momentum. MS could have managed that eventually, but they further added to the pain by releasing the xbox one with inferior specs, the battle was over they had no chance to come back. The reality is the casual felt the PS4 would run third party games better so they bought a PS4, plus it was cheaper to buy only point you got right somewhat.

Considering what's inside the Scorpio there's no way it'll sell for less than $400. But there's also the chance it could sell for $450 or more.

So, there is no way it will sell for $400 even though its being released 1 year after the Pro and is roughly 48% faster? That makes sense to you? I could have understood that argument if it was being released at the same time but we are talking about a year later.

I be surprised if its 400 dollars honestly if its 4K console. I see a price of 450 or 499 dollars.

You see people threads like this happen all the time, it's because parents don't monitor their childrens internet activities :(

The Pro is a joke of an upgrade. The Scorpio is some seriously beefy stuff. That kind of tech doesn't come cheap.
To be fair,we know nothing about it. As far as we know it could be all digital with a windows and steam store for games. Day one purchase if that ever came true. I have a X1 anyway and plan to trade it in upon the Scorpio release. But will say PS is a lot better for my gaming tastes regardless.
if anything I'd imagine the Scorpio and Switch are going to shit on the PS4, neither are going to bury it, but they're going to definitely give Sony a run for their money
the Scorpio will be a beast and superior to Sony's half-assed Pro upgrade, and Switch is going to steal Sony's thunder on the end that Westerners look to it for their Japanese gaming fix, which of course the Switch is going to be getting a lot more support on that end and I feel their library will be much more defined by

Hold on sunny, now back in my days, we gamers had this thing called Game Magazines, we didn't have trolls, we didn't have internet, all we had was gaming magazines. I sure do miss those gaming magazines before the internet ruin it all.
Microsoft man children have been blathering on the internet to anyone that will listen about "project Scorpio" a new console releasing late 2017 that supposedly will be a return to form for the Fartbox brand. There's only one problem: reality.
Contrary to what rich nerds think, most people aren't interested in spending thousands upon thousands of dollars on video game hardware every year. This year the Nintendo Switch is the hot piece of hardware. Most people already have a PS4 and are satisfied. PSVR is a hot commodity despite how butthurt it makes Lemmings. Now the holidays come along comes teh Scorpio with no exclusives and no VR costing anywhere between $400-$600. Sitting next to a $300 Switch with the new Mario and Zelda. Sitting next to a PS4 Pro with the upcoming God of War 4 and The Last of us 2 for $300. Of course don't forget the PS4 and Xbone slim which are still going strong for under $200. Looking at these products on the shelf next to one another the Scorpio, barely more powerful than a Pro and still a joke compared to PC, is going to look like an overpriced PoS. Long story short the Scorpio is set to be another dud. Not interesting, not innovative, not necessarily and ultimately, not wanted.
For RE7, R9-390X(5.9 TFLOPS) is effectively 1.52X faster than RX-470 (4.9 TFLOPS) which is a higher SKU than PS4 Pro's 4.2 TFLOPS GPU.
Scorpio's 12 GB of memory storage with 9 GB game memory allocation which can support PC's higher quality textures while PS4 Pro is stuck at 5.5 GB game memory allocation which is a half-assed upgrade from PS4's 5 GB game memory allocation.
Scorpio's secondary role is a cost effective 4K UHD Blu-ray player.
I doubt the Scorpio will bomb, but I do think price will play a factor. I wonder what the official name will be, because that can play a role in sales as well.
Me personally, thanks to Play Anywhere, I don't have to buy a Scorpio, so I'm happy MS made the PC service available. Especially since online play is free on the pc side of the service, so I get to save the console entry price and the Gold price, so I can spend that money on games. This makes me happy.
Anyone hoping a game system fails confuses me. Competition is good. Does anyone think the PS4 would be as good as it is if it weren't for having the Xbox 360 stealing sales from the PS3? Does anyone think PSN would be where it is today if MS didn't push Live to where it is which in turn made Sony make a better online service for the PS3 than the PS2 service they had which was basically nonexistent. I guess fanboys will fanboy though, I don't want to miss out on quality games, and would have to do that if I didn't use the Xbox service on some device.
@Pray_to_me:
As stated by Phil Spencer, the Scorpio is not going to be a new gen, it's not going to be something that will be released every few years, it's just an alternative for people who want an Xbox One with more kick.
I understand it might be a troll post, but...
Nah, more like Pro would beat Scorpion, but both will nuke Switch.

lol did you pull this out of your butt?
Switch isn't a hot commodity, it's become a running joke
PSVR is well behind the pace of the PS Move, Wii U, Kinect, and Vita. all 4 failed
The pro hasn't even sold 1 mil yet. the slim outsold the pro 6 to 1. the XB1S outsold the pro. it isn't a hot commodity either.
the original/slim PS4 is the hot commodity for sony right now but even then it's sales aren't destroying the XB1 like it was at launch. they've been pretty close recently but sony still holds a 2>1 thanks to the killer early start it got
thousands? of course not. the scorpio won't cost over 600 but I'm guessing they sell it at 500. over 600 would be killer for them. if they could get it to the 400 mark somehow it would fly off shelves.
anyone who purchased a PS4 for exclusives did already. exclusives aren't moving any more hardware this gen really but to be fair they never do anymore. sony has 1 exclusive in the top 10 sold. MS has 2. people buy new systems for power not exclusives and most play the same sports/CoD/Battlefield/GTA etc.
I really don't see that happening myself. Hell the PS4 Pro doesn't even have a 4K blu-ray player and the Xbox One S does. I'm sure the Scorpio will have it as well plus it looks to be significantly more powerful then either the Pro and most definitely the Switch. The Switch will most likely do better then the Wii U but I don't really see it doing all that much better then the Game Cube.
You know MS and Xbox are doing well when the fanboys from the competing company come foaming from the mouth, angry, spitting up nonsense, over their insecurities and fear of the Scorpio. MS nailed it with Scorpio, and Sony dropped the ball with the Pro, and VR. And it's too much for cows so they're having meltdowns.
Yep, spot on.
It's quite hilarious actually.
FlopBox Flopio will have no games so I dont care about it.
Look another scared Sony fanboy.
Why would he be scared? Having more power won't change the fact MS still doesn't have any games worth buying it for. They're gonna show Crackdown, Sea of Thieves and Halo 6. That is all they have. They can't even secure marketing deals anymore lol.
Meanwhile Sony has Spiderman, God of War, Horizon, Detroit, Days Gone, TLOU 2, Death Stranding, Persona 5, Nier, FF7 Remake, Shenmue 3, DQ XI, etc. along with marketing rights to every big 3rd party game like RDR 2, Mass Effect 4, Destiny 2, etc.
@xhawk27: Sony has more big games releasing this year alone than MS has for their entire future lineup. And as for multiplats MS can't legally advertise the big ones because Sony has the deals for them. When a RDR 2 commercial comes on people are gonna see a PS4 at the end of a commercial and associate the game with PS4. Same with Mass Effect Andromeda, Destiny 2, the new CoD and so on.
People that only care about power over everything else would just build a PC anyway. MS has completely lost focus of what console games want.

You say that you don't care yet here you are hmmmmm.

Good to see back to your cowing nathandrakesballbag, i knew you couldn't stay sensible for too long lol.
Quick question has the other cows forgiven you yet for crossing to the darkside there for a while :)
Anyway someone who's delusional such as yourself needs to fill the crazy void left by cowangry :P
A PC system price point with none of the benefits of a PC system.
Not appealing.
Build a PC with Vega 11/R9-390X OC for $399 to $499 USD.
