This is what the console should of been at launch. I want to get this but then again I wanna wait to sell my current X1 for a Scorpio.

 

[dglavimans]

Thats great news.

Sound comparisons are always hard because everything perceives sound differently and also there are systems with different sound levels out there (old ones, new ones, dusted ones ....)

But I was kind of sure the MS would not release a system which is louder than the old one, when they did got their good feedback about this fact

That is true and my ps4 is ofcourse allot older but it always sounded very loud in comparison to the xbox one. For gaming that was semi ok but this is the single reason why I use Plex and Netflix on the Xbox One because in movies or series it just really annoys me..

So far in glad with the console. Going to sell that one when Scorpio hits but this is a really nice stop gap

 

[Kazooie]

Got mine this morning !
Sleek sexy beast.
Anyone has a picture request or questions ?

Been asked a million times but is it as quiet as the OG?

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

One good thing I love about this console is the physical push buttons and not the touch sensitive ones.....The amout of hate I have for those is great.


Still holding off on the 500GB Model as I have no use for a 2TB HDD in it at all....still no UK release for that?

 

[etta]

Do we have an OT?

Ooh ooh ooh I wanna do it.

Forgot how long disk game installs take on the Xbox One..... Really regret I have so many games on disk

I sold my Xbox One to get an Xbox One S, when Scorpio comes out I'll do the same.

If nobody has any objections I vote etta to do it

Also all applicants should file a sample XB1S OT thread and what they bring to the table, show your previous OT experience and a list of hilarious timeless thread titles

Haven't kept up. Any word on if the OS runs smoother?

 

[A.D. Skinner]

How soon should we start pestering MS to make a Scorpio + Bluetooth enabled Elite controller? I'd hate to trade an elite for a regular controller. Babies toy!

Jeah I know.. In my defence shops here got crazy with deals on Xbox One games. Plan was to go full digital on every console but because of the deals I have like 15 Xbox One games on disk

I don't mean go digital. I mean who the fuck uses that slow ass internal hard drive on the Xbox One.

Put the games on a fast external to get quicker load times and you wouldn't need to reinstall games when switching consoles.

Fair but what is the point of a 2Tb when you just buy an external hdd. Plus you have a device more so this takes far less space and is only one time a mess to set up.

Haha well its here now so have to deal with it and its not that big of a deal except it takes so long the first time..

I like the S doesnt stand for Scorpio title!

ShopTo did a size comparison of Xbox One fat, S and PS4 (PS4 at the end of the video)

Xbox One S |OT| We're gonna need more flak for this

 

[Windle Poons]

Just needs to be in black now and I'm sold.

 

[NinjaBoiX]

I can't pull mine off without leaving sticker residue behind.

Use the sticker like a wax strip, reapply it over the residue and rip it off in one quick motion.

just put some rubbing alcohol on that shit.

Or this.

 

[Ghazi]

When does the new controller separately become available for purchase?

 

[Caayn]

Just needs to be in black now and I'm sold.

Spoiler

If only this was real

Black would be nice too

 

[Anion]

Yeah too bad it's not in black lol. All my electronics are black, so I kinda don't wanna break that combo.

Anyone tried watching a UHD movie yet?

 

[Inceptional]

Just got done trading my shit at gamestop. They just opened and told me they probably wouldn't be able to give me cash. I said nu-uh, they knew I wasn't fucking around and folded. I got $150 cash for 6 PS4 games and 4 XBONE games. That should pay off the XBONE-S I have pre-ordered at Best Buy. America, fuck yea!

Yes ! Absolutely

Can you try any BC games and see if there is any improvement?

[dglavimans]

I cant cause I dont have a tv or movie. But this is still the same firmware as the OG Xbox One so I guess it doesnt work yet

 

[Lima]

Anyone tried watching a UHD movie yet?

You can't. Can't even select 4K video output yet because it needs the anniversary update for that.

Also the blu-ray app needs an update as well otherwise the drive can't read 4K discs.

 

[artsi]

Hopefully I can buy the new controller soon, I've needed a separate controller (aside from DS4) for my PC for a long time and the built-in bluetooth is perfect feature addition.

 

[Tall Paul]

Great to see a few early impressions of the S, got the 500GB on pre order but as we don't seem to have any idea when that will hit the UK I'm tempted to trade OG against the 2TB...I know I should wait...but..its new...and.....that's it!!

 

[maximrace]

It seems like the 2Tb version is allready for sale in some Belgian shops

My provider's connection is a bit flakey right now and i don't have physical 360 games anymore.I'm downloading Alan Wake so i will try that asap.
