    Unless there's been a last minute change, Scorpio will be FOUR HUNDRED AND NINTY-NINE US DOLLARS.
    I mean they did say this was a specialty item a few times. Honestly in the long run it makes sense, gets the tech out there to become cheaper later via improvements that will come from testing it now. Anyone who was actually assuming this was a normal xbox console was mistaken IMO. The OneS is more akin to that. This is specialty.

    Wtf is with the timings this year? I missed out on EA yesterday because I didn't realize E3 started. Don't they usually do it mid-week?

    And wtf is with Bethesda presenting at 12 o' clock at night?

    And it seems Forza Motorsport 7 was leaked with an October 3rd release date.

    It's still XB1 architecture. It's essentially the equivalent to Microsoft that the PS4 Pro is for Sony.

    Why would most people buy? You can play all of them on PC.

    Just gonna throw out that the PS3 launched at $600, and sold like hot cakes. At least in the US (and likely Europe, no hope for japan) this will sell out day one.

    This is more of a specialty system as well, and in all honesty the $600 isn't bad considering you can upgrade it for pretty cheap throughout the scorpios life to get the best out of your gaming. I believe the xbox one is still relevant, the scorpio will just have better fps, graphics, etc and likely will be open to more features. So for normal console gamers, pretty sure sticking with the One is fine.

    I like my Xbone, but I bought it refurbished at a discount. at least the One S just got knocked down to 200 in case I feel like updating.

    PS3 didn't sell that well on the first months precisely because of the $600€ price.

    People still get excited for Kingdom Hearts? I never understood the appeal of that game.

    Haven't seen or heard of anything at E3 yet that makes me interested yet sadly.

    $500? Awesome! I was hoping it wouldn't be more than that. Will be preordering one for sure now. That bad boy will go nicely with my 4K TV I just bought.

    Can't say I'll be buying a Scorpio personally. Got a standard XB1 and it plays all my stuff just fine. Same with PS4.

    To be fair if you haven't got an XB1 or Scorpio then it's worth imo. But I just don't see any point throwing £400 or so down the drain. I have a standard XB1 that plays my games perfectly fine.
