Well to be fair the PS3 was more powerful than the 360 and it was not received well at the price it was. And for the XB1 scorpio to be received well it would have to at most be priced the same as the PS4pro if it is $100 more expensive and already behind the PS4 then it will fail imo. But we will see how things play out.

As I already said with the x1 vs ps4, the same applys with the 360 vs ps3, the ps3 while more powerfull, the 360 was performing better than it and was cheaper. it wasent untill half the gen that ps3 multyplats where catching up and exclusives where rolling out witch definetly performd better and there where more numerous than the competition. then the ps3 really started outselling the 360.

This time, the more expensive console, will definetly perform better. Well if they do things right.

But the question is will it perform better to the extent that it warrants being $100 more expensive if it is. That will be the determining factor in my eyes. If it performs much noticably better and is about the same price as the PS4pro then I think it will have good sales. We will see what happens but I can't see the XB1 scorpio being any more than $449...not if they want it to survive this gen. And even $449 would be pushing it imo. $399 is the mark they NEED to hit.
