Question! Where did the $399 rumor come from? Any weight to it?
DriftingSpirit
Member
Yeah, just one.
It mostly came from that they couldn't cost more than the Pro.
That MS wants to sell these...
that and that magazine cover thing

The teaser ad hidden message when googled led to an image of a robot advertised as under $400 too.
Nothing exclusive. If anything it's a port of something released or confirmation of something that's already coming to PS4.

What are you guys on about? Shannon Loftis has 8 unannounced games in development under Global publishing one of them is presumably Ori 2 and another is Studio Gobo's project unless that was signed after that statement was made. Indie games that are exclusive or have financial backing from Microsoft are still under ID@XBOX, no Recore Definitive edition doesn't count as it did not exist at the time of the statement. Also Voodoo Vince is ID@Xbox and Phantom dust was already previously extracted from the original 14.
People complain about MS's first party line up and that its only "forza, halo and gears". Yet they continue ignoring Crackdown, Sea of thieves and State of Decay. Which so far have me pretty hyped, since they are different than what we have in terms of games at the moment.
Scorpio and those 3 games alone are enough for me to consider the conference tomorrow a success. Anything extra would be the icing on the cake

I don't believe in 449/549/649 with different specs.
DF talked about only 1 SKU, the "hype" around the Scorpio is always regarding this chip with "4K" written on it, they didn't show different versions...
Ok it could be a surprise but I can't see people getting enthousiast for a 649 SKU.
If there are different bundles it would be 449 for 500GB HDD + 1 normal controller, 549 for 2TB HDD + normal controller (or 1TB + elite controller), 649 for 500/1TB SDD + Elite controller.
But different GPUs/CPUs... That would suck sooooo much. They can't make a worst decision than this one, it would be absolutly horrible for me.

Ow, the edge.
A dev, with some sort of ocassional inside info, offers reasonably typed up posts that don't even serve to tease or leak info in this instance and some posters lose their shit.
It's really quite pathetic.
Co-fucking-signed. I've already got a cheap external HDD, and an Elite controller, so anything more is superfluous.Just give me a version with no disc drive, 500gb HDD and no controller. For $299. Thank you.
In fact, make it a top-speed 64GB, system only SSD, and no controller for $299. *headbang*

I sure hope so. I mean that visit to Japan by Spencer can't have been in complete vain I'd like to believe.
Hoping not expecting Nier Automata to come to Xbox after all. Kinda expecting Code Vein. I mean Microsoft had Dark Souls I-III trailers during their E3 shows didn't they? Can definitely see the anime souls like game appearing. Sure hope so.
MS would make me very happy if they actually announce a nice list of Japanese games we missed out on.

Is this going to be the first Xbox E3 with no leaks in years?
I hope so!
I hope so!
I've been saying the same thing brother. People are blindly ignoring that this year's slate of games are all completely different from the usual offerings, Forza aside obviously. But a lot of people love their narrative and can't accept MS doing anything well.

you do?
have a look what a 500GB to 1TB SSD upgrade costs for a Surface or Macbook
Don't you remember the first available Xbox One S's with the 2 TB HDD that went for $500? I do because I have one. I don't give a fug what the surface and Macbooks go for. These are gaming machines that they're gonna take a loss on no matter what. They want to sell you games and services, that's the goal.
No but the amazon link of just a Xbox/PC SE game has me hopeful for KH collection

I could see Xbox versions of Nioh and Nier Automata set for early 2018.

Oh damn I had forgotten that they announced that at the end of that conference. Could happen tomorrow as well.
Hope so too for Nier but what the developer said early this year didn't sound hopeful.
Isn't Nioh Sony exclusive?
Why? Genuine question. This will be the 3rd and 2nd time we see those games on stage
Hoping for no leaks, it'll probably leak in the next 24 hours though.

Holy shit. I never realized how awkward this moment was, and how bad it went down. I just re-watched and thought "this isn't too bad..." Then I re-watched the eruption after Sony announced the Playstation 4 was going to be $399.
I think there's zero percent chance NG shows up.
Give me a sequel and I'll get the Scorpio Day 1.
Fuck it, just give us an app or something with more A Thousand Years of Dreams stories. That's all I want anyway.

And this is why it needs to be $399. If they want the existing XBO-S base to move over quickly, they need to price accordingly and give us a sweet trade-in deal. I have all the Xbox shit I need, I just want the damn box with the G-G-G-Gig-Units!!!

I just hope it works!
Is there a rumor about one game announcement or something?
PS4 price had more impact because Xbox $499 was already announced, but yeah.
People think Phil is gonna go on stage and announce 499 again after what happened in that vid I posted? No chance. The console will have been designed with $399 in mind from day 0 most likely.
Holy crap! I didn't remember that. Silence!

It would be an amazing game to combat Sony...
Spencer has also acknowledge the game months ago..
Nikana
Go Go Neo Rangers!
Preach. It drives me nuts. People constantly write these games off like they are nothing because they are new IP, the exact thing they are asking for, but then discredit anything new.

Having actually listened to the podcast now... fuck it, I'm drinking the koolaid, I'm hyped.
Since the 4chan leak didn't mention Bioware's game I'm more doubtful of it now but then again they didn't mention any 3rd party deals so who knows
I think it'll be 449. I think people would be fine with that, but saying that 399 is certainly not off the table. Man, this is gonna be fun as hell.

This. It was built with the 399 price point in mind from the very beginning.

And for those saying it was crickets after he announced the price, it was about 2 seconds and people applauded. It was not instant, but it was roughly 2 seconds after he stopped talking to people clapping. It definitely was not a moment of instant "WOW what a great price".
For Scorpio....I don't think $499.99 is a bad price based on the specs alone...so I still think it will be fine at the price...but a drop like moment I think it would need to be $399.99. That price would be very aggressive and would get instant claps and cheers.
Just finished it and same! Fucking hyped!
Yea you know what I believe too.
Sea of thieves looks genuinely cool, but it's hard to judge a new ip until you see the impact it has. Crackdown and the other one I couldn't tell you what they were. Are they a big deal? Are they new ip?

State of Decay runs like ASS on xbox one, like it drops to zero frames for 5 seconds at a time.
And sea of thieves looks very boring, if it was more like Black Flag it would be interesting
