Forums - Microsoft - Buying an XBOX One S Thanks to Sony Event

So basically I sold my PS4 a month ago in anticipation of Neo. I'm getting a 4ktv this fall, but now that the Pro doesn't even play 4k Blurays I'm basically screwed by Sony. I'm not paying another extra 200-400 bucks for 4k BR player AND a PS4 Neo. I might as well get an XBox One S now because it's one of the cheaper 4k BR players and just game on that since I doubt the 4k games on the Pro will run that great. And no Netflix is not good enough, the whole point of getting a 4ktv is for the best image, a stream is not going to match a 4k Blu Ray. So basically I'm being forced into an Xbox. Now I'm wondering if I should just ditch the PS ecosystem entirely and just wait for Scorpio next year which is going to be more powerful. Sorry Sony but you just lost a customer.

Great choice



Should probably wait for Scorpio then

Have fun



Good Choice, build that collection for the scorpio next year :)

I will personally stay on my ps4 and save up for a new xbox console at the end of next year, I like the way Microsoft announced it very early, and I prefer their first party support over the last few years, I do have a lot of games ready to play when the scorpio comes out.

I don't think you can go wrong with PS4 or Xbox one however, they both have amazing lineups and I do love my ps4 ^_^

1 thing is for sure, the XBOX one S looks sexy as hell and if you want to play UHD-discs (I know I want to) its the best choice right now

I'd wait for the Scorpio if resolution in BluRay is that big of a deal for you

Since they have mostly the same games, I'll get my gaming fix just fine. Kinda sucks I won't be able finish my copy of Uncharted 4 though. Oh well, bring on Killer Instinct.

The S isn't that expensive and everything he buys will be compatible with the Scorpio right, I meen when you buy a $300 console you get a controller ($60) and a game, halo or fifa 17 ($40) anyway so you basicly only spent $200 to start that collection 1+ year early

Yea being unable to play 4k Blurays for the Neo is a pretty wtf decision. I can understand your choice

This thread will end well.

On topic Consoles are made to play GAMES. The GPU and CPU are being upgraded and its also coming this year.

Not for me, I watch all my movies through my console and I spent as much time doing that as playing games. Now I'm going to have to switch. Really disappointed in Sony.
