It literally won't ever have any exclusives, and there's no "so I can play with my friends" aspect because Scorpio and PC will be cross-play

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
Xbox is shit I think it has been for a while and this recent E3 just made it clearer, I should have sold my xbone before the reveal like I was thinking to do, would have got a higher price for it.

I've heard there might be exclusives for it. And I heard there may not be. Besides that, resolution and framerate. And I would assume graphics too? Most games are looking great on PS4/X1. But they can always look better. Think of it like this. If you have Low Medium, High, Ultra settings on PC for a game. PS4/X1 are probably a combination of Medium and High, with some Low thrown in. Maybe Scorpio will initially have games looking identical to Ultra settings on PC. So, you'd have better framerates, graphics, and resolution.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
Their PC releases suck from what i hear and its even worse if theyre going to be restricted to whatever shit theyre trying to pull off.

but I would assume the scorpio costs significantly more than the standard xbone
Why not build a PC if they'll share the same game library and you can play with an Xbox controller with your friends on Xbox?

It's a console, nothing needs to be put together or built. The people who want to pay more will do so.

It's stupid to some, but the main draw of a console for me is simply being able to just plug it in and play.

but if you want a simple plug and play console just get the regular Xbox one

If you're the type of fuck to get a 4K tv you probably have enough scrilla to buy a PC or be tech savvy enough to build one

Just seems dumb to me.

Yeah, but they want that plug-n-play accessibility with their frame-rates and resolutions and textures and shit. Irrelevant shit.

I know, it's dumb. But that's literally the mindset of some people.

Basically it could be a new method of doing things, but we'd have to see what comes after scorpio to confirm what I'm about to say.

So think of the xbox one as the base platform and scorpio as the "half gen" or something similar. All games made for the xbox one will be able to be played on scorpio at higher resolutions, better framerate, and with additional features like VR. Then when the nextbox hits all games for it will also work on the scorpio, but at a lower resolution and framerate.

Somewhat similar to how the PC platform currently works. Games are made for a variety of different configurations, the more powerful ones getting better performance and sometimes more features, but the less powerful ones still being able to play the same game without being segregated from the rest of the community.

Only time will tell what MS does with this though.

That's actually pretty interesting. No one would be forcing you to buy into the next half-gen, and as long as it's reasonably priced, seems pretty cool to me.

They're opening up their market, and planning ahead.


They're being smart, with their backs up against the wall, basically.

If you know, you know.
I was confused when they said there will be no exclusives...
I guess then games will just have some features locked.

Like H5 can have split-screen on Scorpio but not on X1 etc...
Now looking into getting a 4K TV actually.

None of this wouldn't have happened if both consoles weren't outdated when they released.

Long live NoNolesNeckin.

Ya fuckin' ganderneck.
Just got into PC building and it's intimidating af for a newbie. Installing a new graphics card was a headache since my current PSU only has one fuckin' pcie connector and I was ignorant about alternate methods.

Some people like high performance but are still turned off by having to build a PC. (also it's almost always more expensive, regardless.)

Steam sales aren't enough of a draw for the average casual gamer.

even if youre not in the sales you could just put a game on your wishlist and wait for it to go to ยฃ5 and just buy one game in the whole sale or if it's a random sale

you'll still save more money than buying the same amount of games on console

you could have a pretty good build for 600
