To replace the original Ps4 and be the cheaper option for the consumers who don't want to buy the more expensive Neo. I do agree that its weird that people said the x1 slim is useless since both the ps4 slim and x1s serve the same purpose for the respective platforms

True this.

1080P useless. But now its ok.

4K useless. But now its ok.

XB1Scorpio Ruining gaming and useless but PS4Neo is ok.

XB1S Useless but PS4S is now cool.

thats just some of the things i have seen on the forums here, and i do find it both strange and funny how fans can be so quick to contemn one thing and then switch their stance when it suits them like nothing has happened.

Not sure why PS4 owners would say 1080p is useless, but now it is ok, when the PS4 is the only system to consistently deliver 1080p.  And people may have said 4K was useless years ago, but that was more true back then, as 4K TVs were expensive as hell. 

Also, I HIGHLY doubt there were people saying Slims are useless.  We have had Slims ever since the PSOne launched, so who would say they are pointless?  Granted some have said the PS4S is pointless because the PS4 is already small enough, but that's the opposite of what you are proposing people are saying.  What was said was that MS was foolish for announcing the Scorpio so early, since it's more than a year away AND they announced right after the Slim, which kinda stole its thunder.  And people who don't like Scorpio also don't like the Neo, for the same reason, they don't like the idea of a mid-gen upgrade.

Personally, I think your bias is showing through.

That's a good question.

Except it's not, why is it not? Because the creator of the thread made some shit up because he's salty and decided to make a thread to appease other salty individuals. No one said the Xbox One S was pointless, and if anyone did then they're an idiot. What was actually said was that with the Xbox One S announced at the beginning of Microsofts E3, with Microsoft then announcing the scorpio later in the conference was idiotic, especially since the scorpio isn't releasing until late 2017.

A PS4 Slim is a bit pointless, and The PS4 is already slim.

Xbox One Slim isn't pointless, it's a big improvement. The Scorpio however is kind of pointless.

"Play your Xbox games in 4K!" Urr we can already do that on a PC that costs as much as your Scorpio and we don't have to wait till holiday 2017 to do it.

They didn't even unveil the product itself, let alone the price of it. Btw, how much a 4K gaming PC cost?

@Zero129 you shouldn't even bother asking this question, because it's a given you gonna meet some confrontation instead of logical answers.

If you're gonna side with him and attack people, do what he's not doing and bring some quotes and names.



I don't like where this is headed or do I ?

It's the same as always with these accusations so bring me some names just for my entertainment, OP ...

We all know according to VGC Xbox One Slim was useless due to Scorpio announcement.



PS4 Slim is a cheap model
PS4 Neo is expensive

Xbox One S is in between just like OG XBO
Xbox Scorpio is expensive.

The issue is that the Xbox One S didn't significantly lower the price of the XBO.
If the PS4 Slim is the same as XBO S than it too is pretty pointless from a consumer stand point.

I don't think he has to. The general consensus here was that announcing 2 SKU's at E3, diminished the usefulness of the other.

All of a sudden, everyone was either waiting on Scorpio or building a NSA supercomputer for $400 because of Scorpio announcement.
