We’ll keep tuning Scorpio to empower creators to share the best versions of their games. Unlocked extra GB of RAM for them, now 9GB of GDDR5

Good news that just came out. 

Great news. More for 4K textures.

Nice this will bring game development forward

That's a lot.
Now I'm intrigued to see the games this sunday.

Best gets even mo betta

nice. 9GB RAM is a lot.

Sucks. They could have put snap back in with TV. Graphics don't matter people, M$ didn't get the memo? I want my premium experience with features, not graphics. I hope the UI doesn't suffer because of this. Xbone got squeezed for more resources and power, therefor gimping our UI. When all M$ needed to do was give us games.

I am super hyped for this console!!!

This right here is something I like to here and can make a clear direct feel to the gamer.  One thing we have seen is that some games have huge loading times like Tekken 7.  Reducing that time down to seconds instead of minutes would make the scorpio the platform of choice for games that take very long to load after saves or other things.  Eliminating studdering in Open world games.   Looking forward to see if developers take advantage of this extra memory as a cache.

Should have just put more memory in to begin with, leaves way too easy a path to be overtaken again in the not to distant future, and if Scorpio loses its "most powerful console" shtick, it loses everything.
