Xbone 1.5

oh ok, so same thing that Sony is doing then with Playstation, rip Xbone Slim then on its launch day lol.

[theshun]

What was actually NEW? Recore, Scalebound, SoT, and 99% of that was announced last year. HW2?

[haroldsaxon]

Wait, did they say 4k gaming on the new Xbox One Scorpio?

Yeah why do i want the slim if a new version is coming....

Thats the whole point of x1.5 and ps4.5

[Krandor]

Well they're being iffy on the numbers, but 6 teraflops is more processing power then a GTX 980

"And to shit on the Xbox One S"

[Kaslo]

Will scorpio also available on Windows 10?

Rata dropping bombs

[Tyrath]

Im gonna grade that on its ability to sell me a x1 and they failed miserably at that.

[haroldsaxon]

I was hoping for H5 on Windows 10. Hyped for Halo Wars, although they have pushed back the release date.

Brutes with Mjolnir based armour too, although given the lore, not unsurprising.

[Robertfb]

welp time to wait for the PC gaming showcase next.

Profit margin is always bigger with games, and if they can get you to buy their first party titles, regardless of platform, they've succeeded.

[BadKarma]

This fucking thing shits on my PC if they deliver lol. Still running a 980 and a 2500k

[Kaslo]

Cuphead, Halo Wars 2, and maybe Scalebound may get me to get a XBONE, but still iffy.

As to what was new and not already leaked, nothing. Dead Rising 4 and Horizon 3 were meant to be surprises.

PC Show is here https://www.twitch.tv/pcgamer

No more grading conferences for me since Nintendo is out. I never really graded the smaller ones so only 2 is just no fun. Not really an Xbox dude but this conference was fine. Unfortunately for MS some of this stuff was leaked :/

[notorious bum]

If they didn't turn Rare into a shell of their former selves, we'd probably have a giant bombshell series that would make all of us want to become Xbros. The whole concept of the "upgraded console" era also reignites the fond memories of Rare's insane ability to squeeze every ounce of power out of the resources they had to work with. /endrant

I did think that Sea of Thieves looked like it could be some good casual-friendly fun, though. Will probably consider throwing W10 on a second drive to try out Forza, too.

I'm taking the long view. Exclusives/lockouts suck. MS games switching to being xbox + PC is good.
W10/UWP blows, but, it's going to be easier to break games out of UWP, than to emulate further generations of console hardware.
