OT: this is not news. Why is this even a thread? :|

it will handle other titles... PS: this not a comment. Why is this post even on this thread?

The thread has 0 information value. My comment had the same. The way you make it the way the responses will be + I couldent miss out to tell the world about that horrble joke I made up while being high on 5 cans of Red Bull :))

One beef burger please. JK. As for the specs they won't matter until they have devs to push it to the limits.

The console is so good he can't remember how good it is.

People already say you cant see a differnce between 900p on Xbox one vs 1080p on PS4.

Now its going to be 1800p (checkerboarded 4k) on PS4pro  vs 2160p (native 4k) on Xbox Scorpio.

But the differnce in image quality between 900p vs 1080p is bigger than the 1800p vs 2160p (deminishing returns on scaleing resolution up).


It will need games that showcase it more positively than just the 3rd party multi plats.

The Scorpios CPU is going to be 6tf+ which is 40% more than PS4 but tf's are not created equal and a vega gpu at 6tf will have about double the performance than the ps4 pro's. Then the one will have at least 40% more bandwidth than the pro. CPU is an unknown but let's assume it's 40% more powerful than the ps4 pros. All this means the difference between the 2 will be a lot more than 1800p with checkerboarding vs 4k. A lot more.

you are so hyped and for so long that is quite easy to see your fall

All I'm saying is that is the potential difference in performance. The likelihood that Microsoft and muliplatform devs actually invest the money and effort into marking that happen is very unlikely. I honestly think that we won't actually see the full capability of the machine until the Scorpio is the base version of xbox(when the standard one gets discontinued). That's assuming Scorpio is a big enough success for a Scorpio 2 to release. That's a big assumption the way things are looking right now.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

Scorpio is going to be good hardware, not sure why anyone would doubt it. MS is clearly aiming to make the most powerful game hardware ever, and by a good margin at that, and they have all the resources to do so.

supposedly Scalebound was just canned.... and we get a PR statement about how good the scorpio's hardware will be.

But what good does that do without the games?

also this answear he gives "cant say anything" its non news, its like damage controll PR.

Yeah. I hate to pile on Microsoft or kick fans when they're down, but what the heck is going on? A super-powerful console without games is just a glorified paperweight.

Microsoft really, really needs to reinvest money in first-party studios and forge meaningful relationships with third-parties for exclusive games. It doesn't need to throw money at a high-end console.

They have one card they have the ability to play, but I doubt they will play it. It starts with Win and ends with 32...

I can only imagine how good Halo 6 would look if it was made exclusive to Scorpio..

Exactly. And we won't know how good a game on Scorpio can look until it's not being held back by a Xbox one version. That could be years.

That could happen on new gen Xbox, remember Scorpio is still based on the same generation with Xbox One and PS4. The same with PS4 pro.
