Forums - Microsoft - Scorpio to be $399???

Predicts Pachter:

"The Xbox Scorpio is priced at $399. This might not be low enough, particularly if PS4 Pro drops before holiday 2017, but Microsoft has to price competitively or fall farther behind."

DISCUSS!!!!

Its pachter day huh?

I can believe the price tho



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

I thought it would be $500. $400 is amazing for what it is.



Depends what software releases with it and if the patches released for current games push it beyond the frames and resolution on current Xbox, like it should.

Consider it an early Christmas. You're very welcome.

Heck, for 399, I'd buy one easily. Especially with 4k blu-ray capabilities.

And what is it? It's "amazing" for this price but we don't know what's in the box... 

 

If it really is $399, it won't be the super new XBox Masterrace power machine people were dreaming about ("only" a PS4 Pro version 2017). But it's Pachter, so... 



I actually agree with him for once (or twice for that matter). People who think Microsoft will price this higher than the pro are crazy.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

without really any solid specs it is hard to even speculate. i can believe $399 but then i don't believe the machine is as upgraded as some of the leaks suggest. i can believe some of the leaked specs but then i can't believe $399.

either way reallly, really doubt MS is brave enough to launch a machine at greater than $499 even if the machine is billed as high end.

ms seems to have been really vocal about how high end the experience would be back when ps4 pro wasn't released but has since release don't a bit of a 180 on that line of marketing. i'm starting to think the machine isn't a much of an upgrade to the ps4 pro and therefore also not that much higher of a price.

That's quite a lot of money for watching only 4k blu-rays, since nearly all the xclusive games on Xbox are on PC.

Do u have a PS4 or PS4 Pro yet?
