Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Phil Spencer - "XB1, XB1S, Scorpio etc are consoles"

@XboxP3 I cant shake the feeling that the Xbox Scorpio is going to be a gaming pc made to look like a console. Please...... say it aint so ?

 

 

@XboxP3 oh good to know its not The surface gaming PC. Lol

@XMARKLIVE No, the console experience is different from PC imo, and XB1, XB1S, Scorpio etc are consoles.

 

So it seems MS want to keep a clear distinction between consoles and PC, Scorpio will be treated like a console.

Of course. You cant sell a PC game for 60 bucks after all.

And you can't run steam on an xbox



The news we've been getting today is really groundbreaking stuff.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

A lot of people are wondering what direction they are going to take and if Scorpio will be a more PC route. Now we have it straight from the horse's mouth!

Of course it is. Microsoft would never let Steam run on those things, they wouldn't make any money on games sold on the system that way!
