It would of been nice if they gave me a reason to pick it up, though I doubt I would of wanted it at all. Why would I need this if I own a gaming PC and PS4 and recently Switch.
EDIT: I really would like a good argument to buy this machine. It is a under powered gaming PC with less capabilities. Of course that is just my opinion sprinkled with some fact.
the same 5 billion play time data.i wonder if they'll ever announce the real numbers. they'll probably boast the xbox x numbers though. i'm sure aaron just can't resist that temptation.
i also don't understand MS. everyone knows that this is a stage where they'll be announcing Xbox X pre order news but they just keep talking about PC and how every game is coming over. i mean what the hell is going on there at Redmond?
@Nix They'll only boast X numbers of it actually manages to sell a significant ammount, which even MS knows it won't. With Cuphead and Forza 7 being the only exclusives to note this holiday, X is basically banking on selling to people who want to play old games in higher resolution, i.e. people who already own a Xbone.
The X is not gonna sell well, and Xbone's overall sales woes will carry through the holidays.
Crackdown 3 Multiplayer has just been confirmed to be NOT be there. I guess we have to wait longer for our "minds to be blown" eh guys?"
2 mins in and its already clear this "conference" will be easily topped by PlayStation's Experience conference in Dec. I guess there is always E3 in 10 months time Xbox fans.
Also just confirmed but Phil Spencer will not be attending (because, you know, the confirmed date of his daughter's grad just snuck up out of nowhere the last day or 2 and wouldn't have been planned for today months ahead of time). Must be down to the Crackdown 3 delay disaster from earlier in the week.
spencer is a true family man. he won't cancel out on his daughter's graduation day but he'll cancel the games on millions of gamers. hahaha... how do these people sleep at night? peacefully, i'm sure, while fanboys are left defending the entire night.
@Andrewsquall ... the power of the cloud. They are just waiting for quantum computing to optimize the bricks for all of those falling buildings. /JK /S
We're definitely at the point where CGI is totally superfluous. I definitely agree; games looked very good running on One X in real time. Just show that, mention it's running on One X (rather than leaving us to assume all Xbox One hardware runs it that well), and you've got at the very least a very flashy showing.
Aaron Greenberg was sweating when they asked him about games this year lol he flipped the conversation backwards compatibility and xbox even games launched last year.
Which console can you play Cuphead, Crackdown 3, State of Decay 2, Ori and the Blind Forest 2, Sea of Thieves, Recore Definitive, Forza 7, Halo Wars 2, Rise of Nations, Luckey's Tale 2, PlayerUnknowns Battleground?
I said which console? Obviously Microsoft has Windows 10, Xbox One X and Xbox One S which covers all areas for gamers. If people only used consoles for exclusives it wouldn't explain why month after month PC games being played on consoles are always on the list.
moldy, you tried. but everyone and their nieces know that every game that's on xbox is coming to PC too. so let's not try this "oh look it's only available on xbox consoles" statements. makes you look like aaron on that stage who said "everyone buys xbox for it's amazing diverse exclusives". he sweat a little there. i really thought he is one of those guys who can talk straight up lies but man he at least knows what the world thinks of xbox. unlike you.
Aside from those that have launched...none. Need help or something Moldy? You do realize that they haven't released yet and won't be for a LONG time. That is if they don't get cancelled or delayed.
@SpaceRanger "Aside from those that have launched...none. Need help or something Moldy? You do realize that they haven't released yet and won't be for a LONG time. That is if they don't get cancelled or delayed."
The whole point of the show was to showcase games coming, so do you need help on that? Also please explain a long time because Forza 7 is coming soon. Funny how people get upset at me for posting in Sony articles yet here you are posting nothing but negative stuff daily in Xbox articles and getting nothing but agrees, shows you how lopsised things truly are..
They weren't going off the cuff. Be serious, he knew the questions pre hand. He was sweating because he's fat. Go back and watch how long he leaves his mouth open gasping for air. Not healthy!
The PS4 Pro launched with about 12 ready for the system. Microsoft was better prepared and are marketing the midcycle console much better and it will also benefit 1080p owners more than Pro does and supports older games that will all benefit as well.
@ninsigma It is hilarious that people don't realise that XboneX simply has the upgrades of most games that came out throughout 2017. How could PS4 Pro in November 2016 had enhancements for games like RE7, Ghost Recon or Prey BEFORE they were out lol? Everything that was out since Sep last year will pretty much be will have enhancements for XboneX, its sort of a given, nothing mind blowing or astounding for a so called PC gamer.
XboneX was announced 14 months ago. It BETTER have games ready for it when you give that much of a heads up and end up jeopardising your current console's sales too.
So strange the way Xbone supporting older games is SO important to moldy who we know, never touched these games on an Xbone console anyway because he has such a powerful PC. Its almost as if his primary gaming platform this past 4 years is Xbone lol.
@andrewsquall "How could PS4 Pro in November 2016 had enhancements for games like RE7, Ghost Recon or Prey BEFORE they were out lol?"
How is your enhanced version of Bloodborne? The fact is Microsoft is better prepared for older titles too than Sony was for its older titles. The Xbox One X will also enhance every Xbox One game, unlike the Boost mode which came out months later and does not help every single PS4 title or offer faster loading on every title or better aliasing like the XB1X will. Where is the supersampling for The Last of Us or MLB The Show? Get your facts please because 1080p owners for the XB1X will be beneficial with supersampling too.
@moldybread I've made it very clear, many a time here, that I don't have Bloodborne. Never could get into From Software's games. Sony can't MAKE From Software do something they don't want to, they don't own them. And From Software are very renowned for their very unoptimised game engine anyway, would an enhanced version of the game be THAT better regardless?
You DO know that there are games on that list of "100 games" that aren't even out this year too likw Crackdown 3 and Kingdom Come Deliverence? I hope the supersampling is worth it for you when you get your XboneX to replace your XboneS moldy. Now you finally get to play Batman Arkham Knight on Xbone with SUPERSAMPLING, your new game changer since Fallout VR for XboneX was never actually a thing, but a separate patch will still be needed to take advantage of that 2007 1080p you have. Why bring that up? Its one of the better "older games" from this gen you mentioned that you more than likely own and played on Xbone. If you don't own "older games" for Xbone this past 4 years then why are you so enthusiastic about them but so randomly hateful towards PlayStation whenever you can be? Did you just close your eyes when I explained the part where the console BETTER have good support when developers and the public know its coming 1 year and 5 months before its launch.
And about its marketing since you brought it up too, they marketed this midcycle console "much better", you mean this console that couldn't even be preordered over 2 months later after its final debut at E3 2017 and a year and 2 months after its initial announcement? PERFECT marketing, after that Gamecom abysmal showing, the preorders will be through the roof lol.
PS4 Pro launched and within a few months had a game released that was basically built to show its power, and it was critically acclaimed, not to mention a completely new IP. If I'm being honest, they had 3 critically acclaimed new IPs released on it. Microsoft isn't going to do that, they aren't even going to come close to that.
Yeah! I´m ready! Bring on the X!
Someone please wake me when they are done with AC.
Wonder if they are announce some new games?

I'm not impressed by CGI trailers in 2017. Gameplay only or GTFO.
