It probably changed.

The differnce is everyone now has 1080p TVs... not many have 4k TVs or plan to upgrade soon to it.

So there was a clear differnce in quality for basically everyone.

Then theres the fact that as you go up in resolution the improvements in terms of increased image quality run into deminishing returns.

Basically differnce below 1080p are bigger, than ones above it (meaning 1800p or 2160p, doesnt matter as much).

Differnt situations, so you can just go "now none of that matters", it still does, but to a lesser degree.

Also because MS puts most of its exclusives on windows,... people that want to play those games at 4k, have been able to do so on PC for along time already.

I like the design of the Xbox Scorpio, but Im not at all tempted to get one (I wasnt with the PS4pro either).

I have a 1080p tv and thats fine for me atm.

Project Scorpio

The analyst’s warning comes on the same day that Microsoft MSFT revealed the technology inside its next Xbox system, codenamed “Project Scorpio.” Integral to the new console will be Microsoft’s new Scorpio Engine, a “system-on-chip” that was designed alongside AMD.

There were some rumors that Project Scorpio would feature AMD’s new Ryzen CPU technology, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Last month, shares of slid after an unfavorable review of the Ryzen 7’s PC gaming performance.

We have no idea how much the Scorpio will cost, so you really can't claim this.  Plus, you're going to need to compare it to the prices this holiday, not now.

If the Scorpio launches for $499, I'm pretty sure this holiday you'll be able to build a PC that is roughly the power of the Scorpio for that price.  It would probably have about the same GPU power, but you can bet it'll have a better CPU.

I like the exclusives on both Sony and MS consoles, just means i'll be buying most multiplats on Scorpio and PC now too. PS4 Pro relegated to 100% Sony exclusives.

Its a big deal for me, since i don't like using Origin or UPLAY on PC due to the fragmented nature, MP and Achievements. I just enjoy that aspect more in a console environment where its more the MP community is more consistent, unified,  and you know what to expect.

For PC i stick mostly to SP games these days where i want to push the eye candy.

I too love the Elite controller and its my favorite to use. Play Anywhere titles are great too, so when the livinroom is being used, i can fire up the desktop and do my thing from where i left off.

PC market isn't that fragmented if you stick to Steam.  I don't buy EA games so I would never download Origin.  Ubisoft has their own store on PC (UPLAY) or is that just to support their online games through Steam?  Sure there are a ton of stores but most PC gamers just stick to Steam.  I don't give a shit about any other store nor is there a need.   Sure I saw some games on humble bundle sale that I believe were on GOG store or whatever it is called.  Some old school games that I was semi interested in but I was like screw it I'm not downloading another store.  Oh and the Windows Store can go fuck itself.

Well thats a big problem with Ubi and EA still putting out high profile  AAA games, and being a large part of the 3rd party market. 

Bethesda, Rockstar and Eidos games i stick to Steam .

I don't mess with GoG either, hate having my stuff all over the place.

I have no issues with the Windows Store, its literally like having an extension of my XBO library available to play at higher quality and i dont pay for MP to play on XBL.

Can't agree with that. Microsoft is doing Okay. It certainly hasn't imploded like the WiiU which has a larger precentage of exclusives than the Xbox One.
The Xbox 360 did really well considering how much of it's library was multiplats.

Those aren't my arguments. Those are the arguments I hear console gamers use.

Besides. All your console games end up on PC eventually anyway.

But you still haven't answered my question. What do you loose if console exclusives were available on other platforms?

I can tell you what you will get... Developers and Publishers can sell their game to a larger audience, which means more copies of a game sold and hopefully a larger budget for the sequel, which results in better production values next time around.

Scorpio's CPU advantage is larger than what the clockspeed numbers imply. - I thought people moved away from using "Megahertz/Gigahertz" after the Pentium 4 era to gauge performance? Lets not go backwards now.

That's sad to see. AMD needed the big boost in support. But... I did call it early once we had engineering samples that Ryzen wasn't going to set the world on fire. In many instances Ryzen having single-threaded performance equivalent to that of a Core i5 was pretty much inline with expectations once ES chips landed over a year ago.

GOG is awesome and well worth investing in because it gives you the option to just download the installer, no DRM or issues. I dont want origin (though I installed it recently to replay ultima) and steam is my other service, but I dont want more. GOG is my preferred service because it sells older games.

So I wouldnt say gog is having stuff all over the place, you just download it and put it in a single folder, easy.

I'm curious how BC-compatible 360-games will run on the Scorpio.

Some 360 games run a bit smoother on the original hardware, some run smoother on the Xbox One. If we get the best experience of BC-compatible 360-games on Scorpio (720p with rocksolid 30 or 60 fps even in titles problematic on the 360) or even some 360-games in 1080p (without buying them again like the uprezzed PS2 games on PS4) I might consider upgrading to the Scorpio.
