Not sure if I'm liking the gradient paint job on the Scorpio edition. Might cancel my pre-order.
On a lighter note, that Eurogamer thread is an embarrassing cluster fuck. Like all Xbox threads these days.
Yeah... I tried to have some discussion in there. I think I'm done trying now...
yup yup yup. Just made the mistake of commenting in there. im out...

So hold on a second... Didn't they show that the console extract heat to the sides?
Knowing this, having one side blocked by the stand (upright) would not be a good idea....!?
It is just "SALT".
Assuming it is like the Xbox One S stand, there is room to allow air flow there as it is suspended. I recently switched my S to stand vertically, and I can tell there is air being drawn in from below.So hold on a second... Didn't they show that the console extract heat to the sides?

I thought this too but it actually floats about 10mm above the base of the stand and is held via the side (hard to explain in words)
Love the way people only buy a console for exclusives, PS4 launch line up says differently. Personally it goes Controller > Power > games. The best games are always the multiplatform offeringsand FH3
It is just "SALT" there. Saw the thread title, knew what was coming ...
I checked this morning and they were out.

I dunno, I have one preordered, but I see a lot of the things people are saying for reasons not to get one completely valid.
Pre-ordered two.
One for me - The other as a Christmas present for my son. Christmas will be coming early for me though
Ordered from Amazon UK the same minute the pre-orders went live, the other from the MS store.
They were out earlier today.

If it's not for you, that's OK. Just, don't regret your purchase is all. Do right by you. I can certainly see many reasons to hold off being valid just as much as I can see someone having reasons to want one getting one.
Depends how you view the purchase.
I see the one x as the absolute best way to play all my one games and the back compat 360 titles. With little or no compromise.
I dont see it as a new amazing chapter in gaming.
Just being able to play the mcc games at a rock solid 60 and getting the awesome fh3 at 4k is enough for me!
Then there's all the valid reasons to get one. Do what you want but don't let people make you feel bad for choosing what you want to do with your own money.
Have you seen the HDR Forza 7 video on a 4K TV? Any doubts I had went straight out the window.
They were out earlier today.
I think I probably ordered within 10 seconds of go-live.
I was literally at fever pitch when major Nelson said pre orders were live. Kind of ridiculous when I think about it! Just so much neogaf hype.
Looking back tho, glad I did. Had a feeling these would sell out fast.
Guess I'm sticking with my Amazon preorder. 100 dollars is just too much for me. Especially since I was assured it would be 50 dollars. Can't do 100 right now.
Also only 150 for a One S trade in is bleh but maybe I can sell mine for more in my local advertisements.
Oh I've been in since the announcement last year. I prefer many things about Xbox over other systems. I have them all anyway, but I just want third party to be back on my preferred system. Best controller, ecosystem, friends, etc. I'll keep hoping they get their first party act more together, but I'm all about it.
If you think that other thread is salty just wait for the DF face offs. Also, apparently PUBG is nothing.
What do you mean nothing?
What do you mean nothing?
are you planning on buying it or not? because it'll be $550 with tax, in about 10 weeks. If you're that hard up, maybe you can't afford it right now? /freeadvice
I think they are eluding to the idea that salty folk in the other thread are discounting the importance of PUBG on console (XBOX One), and will do the same and more in a DF thread. Not necessarily anything negative.
Jez tweeted that he has word that pre orders far exceeded expectations.
Indeed, especially in Europe it seems.
I had someone say to me in that thread that it would only sell 100's of thousands, not a million. The game that sold 8M so far on PC. I mean come on!
Jez tweeted that he has word that pre orders far exceeded expectations.
What does any of it matter. Even if you are the only person who buys a One X so what. As long as you are satisfied with your purchase who cares. Same mindset for anything entertainment. If it entertains me I could care less. about others.
Justifying the value of a purchase based one how many other people have it is nonsense. Do you.
is Jez reliable?
not surprising if true, I know many people on xbox that were starving for a decent xbox system
It matters. The more people who buy the console the more support it will hopefully get. You want the console ecosystems you are buying into to succeed.

True. But Xbox already has a 30 million deep console base. People are acting like only a handful of people own Xbox's. The ecosystem has succeeded it may not be PS4 levels but 30 millions is nothing to scoff at.
I swear sometimes people talk more then they play on Neogaf and just wait for NPD or review threads for positive affirmation. I don't it's tiring.
