Unless the Scorpio is using an 8-core Zen processor, i don't think what you're describing will happen (regardless to what MS themselves want). The PS4 and X1's current Jaguar processors just aren't up to snuff, and there's a limit to how hard they can be pushed. I'm impressed by Sony managing to scale theirs up to 2.1Ghz as a platform standard, and even then they're really just polishing a potato.

Hopefully it's using Zen or at the very least some of the low power Excavator cores. I agree that Jaguar just doesn't cut it nowadays.

I guess we'll have to hope and see. What they do ultimately doesn't affect me much in the short-term, but long-term the further MS push the Scorpio, the more Sony will hopefully push their higher-spec versions. As long as PS-only titles continue to exist, i want their systems to be as strong as reasonably possible, and MS play an important role there.
