Seriously why would get a fucking Scorpio when every game it has will be on PC?

>inb4 great specs

I can literally build a PC that shits on it in terms of graphical quality. You buy a console for exclusives which Scorpio lacks.

PS4 and NX is the way to go.

Great specs, blu ray player, xbox exclusives, no blue screen bullshit or incompatible parts.

We dont know price point yet but we can assumr it will launch at ~600usd then drop to around 400usd after a year or two. Sold at a loss.

I think it's time to stop seeing MS game business as the Xbox and begin considering MS platform for games as Windows 10. It's very possible that Windows 10 is going to get every game that would be released on any Xbox console from now on. Xbone and Scorpio would then be just part of the whole Windows 10 business as something like Steam machines for people who don't want to bother building a PC.

I can buy whatever the fuck I want. Though with xbone I get free games through bing points. and I don't have to swap out hard drives because I ran out of space on it.

PS4 is a better console but xbone lets you have more accessibility. PC is best though, obviously, but they're fucking up if they expect people to upgrade their OS for a few games.

Are you surprised?
For years the industry has been working hard to erode and remove any and all of the defining positive characteristics that used to set apart consoles from PCs.

Remember the time when the notion that PCs were complex and maintenance-heavy, but flexible, and that consoles were no-worries-no-trouble, pop-in-press-on-and-play simplicity was a generally accepted truth - and everybody was content with this distinction? (Well since most people here are underaged millennial shits nowadays, you probably don't remember).

Remember when console owners turned their noses at PC users because they had to worry about patches, drivers, disk space, etc? When it was industry standard that (respectable) console games were thoroughly tested and nearly bug-free on release, since cartridges couldn't be patched?

How's that looking for consoles nowadays, eh?

The Scorpio's just the next logical step in this development: introducing the hardware race with all its associated costs for the performance-oriented consumer to the console market, erasing that long-held truth that a console generation is a comparatively uniform hardware environment with relatively homogeneous performance.

Instead, they want to force you console owners into that stupid and potentially expensive PC hardware upgrade cycle while keeping you caught in the limitations and constraints of the console market.

So, in other words, they're taking away your anti-PC argument of "Well at least with consoles I don't have to update my hardware every few months".

why are people arguing about the merits of console and pc gaming? the fact is console gamers are migrating to some degree to pc, and the console companies are rushing to put out 4k machines to compete with what pc is offering them.

People seem to be having a hard time realizing that Microsoft is getting out of the """"console"""" market.

Their vision for the XBOX is clearly along the same lines as a Steam Machine. You want Zelda? Buy an NX. Sony exclusives? Buy a PS4. You want to play Microsoft exclusives? You build a PC or buy a Bone.

A lot of us have a nice PC we built ourselves so we take for granted that a lot of people don't want to mess with all that, or are too intimidated to jump in. Those people buy a Bone. The rest of us play Dead Rising on our PC. I'm not saying that strategy is right or wrong, but its the direction they are going/went. To Microsoft the Xbox One/Scorpio/PC with Win10 Store are all one in the same.
>>
>>341792608
I don't care about online, I only play Single player games anyway
And I would play anything on PC, but as long as exclusives exist and most of what I want to play is on consoles (Because I've got a PC and I struggle to find something I'd like to buy on it very month: in the last three I only have bought the DanganRonpa games and TW3), I have to buy them to have fun

+1 for you but even then I can get a 12month membership somewhere for literally $20. $20, a year, which is nothing if you have a job.

Unless the graphics goes down to 480p, I couldn't care less about graphics. As long as it works and it's fun, I don't care.

I got lots of real-life friends on Xbox that I play with. I don't have a PC that's even capable of running Dark Souls 3 with optimal results, and I am sure as hell not going to go out and spend $500 on a PC that will inevitably be outdated in literally a year, whereas the Xbox can last an entire generation.

Ah okay I get you on that. But I did mention that before as well. Using a keyboard/mouse on a couch is a shitty experience even with some ungodly piece of wood or tv dinner tray or whatever.

Almost every modern shooter has aim assist when plugging in a console and plenty of games have controller only servers including GTA and CS.
