Rumour: Xbox One mini to launch in October. To drop the blu-ray drive?

Sony is simply better hardware designers. That is why they went with such a large design on the XBOne and left the power brick out. 

Really, PS4 sounds like a jet engine and runs hot, X1 is the complete opposite. Owned both and will go with whatever is quieter in the not long distant future.

There must be something wrong with your PS4 because mine barely makes any sound. My PS3 however sounds like a truck that has a jet engine LOL!

Well that would be a hilarious year for Xbox if true.

"We're bringing disc-based backwards compatibility to Xbox One!"

"And here's a new Xbox One model without a disc drive!"

Gee thanks.

Probably the best example on why the Xbox One Mini is very unlikely at this point in time. I won't say its not going to happen, a lot of things can happen but it would not benefit the Backward Compatibility strategy if they do the Mini now.
