He's either referring to Scorpio or he's drunk and regressed to October 2016.

I'd say flop is a strong term in relation to Scorpio, but it's certainly not going to light the world on fire or be a massive resurgence for Xbox.

Who knows? With 6 teraflops of power if they were to go off and use a lead free solder again we could well see that happen!!

I'm not sure either, unless the Scorpio has some insanely good price point I can't see it breaking into new homes, or else E3 is going to have some huge reveal like Steam coming to Xbox 1 or something so you could make use of all your library from the PC on Scorpios power, that would make it a system people want. I think. As it stands if that comes out as a more expensive model of the X1 with some extra framerate and resolution I mean you're basically just appealing to the fans who've already bought into the X1 base model to buy that upgrade, you're not going to win back Switch or Ps4 gamers I think, could always be wrong though, only time will tell.

Their windows store ia "trying" to compete with Steam, why would they do that? Pushing away money from their own stores
