It may shock you but lots of people can't/won't/don't play games on PC. shadow puppet of a posted:Please give The Habitat a little more time to put down roots before we get run off of Games again for being impenetrably offtopic. You could try not being more predictable than a Microsoft hardware choice. I mean, I'm just spitballing here.

And then hit the GFWL2.0 store, play a game in it, and then consider a 600 dollar console.

Phil Spencer on Giant Bomb right now (loosely transcribing): "If you have an HDTV but not a 4K TV, should you go out and buy a Scorpio? I guess, if you have one games might work a little better, but I don't think of that as the reason to get one. It's like you are downsampling the 4K to a 1K. Some of the developers might use the 6 teraflops in other ways, but the 4K is really the total package of the device" gently caress, they are bad at this. Confirmed that there will be no Scorpio-only games, all games will run on any Xbox.

StarkRavingMad posted:Confirmed that there will be no Scorpio-only games, all games will run on any Xbox. OK, Phil, let's make this easy. You've said that: A. Scorpio can do VR. B. By implication, XBone can't do VR. C. A VR game is still a game, at least allegedly. Therefore: D. Scorpio will play VR games that the XBone won't play. There is no avoiding this conclusion. None.

Patter Song posted:OK, Phil, let's make this easy. He did also say that the Scorpio is designed to run high resolution VR experiences. Which is kind of a mess when he says at the same time that all games will run on all platforms. The implication like you say is that VR games aren't included in "all games" but he's not going to come out and say that.

Scorpio isn't going to exist. Seriously. This is just stonewalling until they shitcan the whole division. It's obvious as loving day when the head of the division can't even keep the details straight for two loving days.

Real hurthling! posted:so the one S is not any different in power than the one but it is for gears and phil doesn't know why or how? It's slightly more powerful to handle HDR stuff, and it looks like the Gears people are reallocating that additional strength to do actual game stuff. In other words, it's not supposed to be any more powerful for actual games, but it might be anyway. It'd be a margin of error difference, though.

Zaphod42 posted:What happened to the power of the cloud? And Direct X 12, and the advantages of super mega highspeed but not really on-die ESRAM as opposed to Sony's slow dumptruck RAM, and the dark silicon, and the unused CPU core disKinecting freed up? There's so much hypothetical performance on the table I don't know why they would even consider new hardware! Xbox Serpico is going to take a bullet to the face for all the other failing Microsoft divisions desperately trying to justify their jobs.

Real hurthling! posted:so the one S is not any different in power than the one but it is for gears and phil doesn't know why or how? He said there's some minor hardware differences because stuff just is slightly different from SKU to SKU based on component availability, etc, he said even different versions of the Xbone itself are slightly different, and the Xbox S runs the current not-final build of Gears slightly better because of that, but setting that specific thing aside and setting HDR aside, he would not recommend buying the S because you are thinking it will run your games better, that is not what it is designed for.
