Ugh Turn 10 is making it very difficult for me. I already wanted to buy a XBox One for FH2 yet I thought, better wait for the slim. Then the slim was announced and exceeded all my expectations, except half an hour later Scorpio was revealed, ugh.

Cave in and buy a slim now with FH2 and FH3. Buy a cheap refurbished XBox One and trade it for the Scorpio next year. Or simply wait for the Scorpio with hopefully a 60fps update and enjoy DriveClub VR this season on a pro.

I'm a "typical xbot" so my opinion is bias. But go the refurbished xbox route, and then trade it in for Scorpio. Or buy it on PC, if you have one.

Holy shit, an Xbox one "exclusive" (not really exclusive) has a 90+ meta game. Took em long enough.
Hope I jinxed it.

Has the curse finally been lifted? An Xbox exclusive with an over 90 meta? Yes!!!!

Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Gears needs to be 90+ meta so we can have a repeat of 2011

I swapped my PC for a laptop long time ago. I doubt a 740m will do FH justice.
As my local store is still uncertain whether they'll even be able to get psvr in this year, a refurbished XBox One is going to be very tempting. Plenty cheap second hand games available now, Sunset overdrive and Quantum break for example. That and a mini NES, sounds good to me. One positive thing of these mid gen upgrades is that it stimulates the 2nd hand market :)

Had to make sure I dumped the salt directly into the wound.
