As word of mouth spreads (assuming Sony don't promote it at some point) you'll see the Pro edge ahead of the XB1 and then as steam builds for the Scorpio you'll see the XB1 start slipping further and further behind. Add to that the momentum exclusives bring to the PS4 and it's looking more and more like MS need the Scorpio in order to just slow the widening gap down. As I keep saying, the only way MS can take any sort of victory from this is if they give the impression the Scorpio is a next gen console. This way their fans and MS can give out Scorpio numbers and have a free run until Sony release the PS5. Remember, I'm not talking literally here, I'm talking about blurring the lines enough for a perception to take hold and create a narrative that favours MS. This is one reason MS fans are keen on breaking the PS4 ecosystem up into thirds. Slim success, Pro fail, Pro success, Slim fail. When the reality is PS4 success. |
Microsoft will do much more damage to there already broken image if they announce scorpio as next genn.
Even greater when ps4 dominates it.
