What are we doing about this, /v/bros?
I'm trying to get some money together to preorder it, but my cable bill just went up to $210 so I have to cancel that.
Gonna buy it OP
>>341906853
Oh shit that's the size?
Sold. My old One was having drive troubles anyway so fuck it.
>>341906932
Jesus christ! What are you paying for?
>>341906932
>cable bill
Don't you have netflix or the internet?
>>341906932
>cable
>especially at $210
Honestly im just going to wait for the scorpio. That shit sounds insane. Unless gamestop has a special trade-in bonus. Then ill get rid of my box and just get the whyteeeeeee
>>341907315
There are places where you can't get internet except as a bundle with cable.
It's fucking bullshit.
Suck my dick, Comcast.
Gonna throw it out the window because all the Xbox "exclusives" are also coming for the PC now. Seems like Microsoft decided to drop the entire gen after being decimated hard by Sony and are instead opting to go straight into the next gen with Scorpio.
Serves me right for buying an Xboner for Scalebound. Not that it coming to PC is any help since the game looked like shit anyway.
>>341907402
Honestly? I'm getting both most likely. Then probably sell Whytee to a friend for super cheap.
I got the white xbox with sunset overdrive bundle about 2 years ago or so. Kinda mad the new one is white and better.
>>341906853
>Xbox is no longer huge
Why bother
>>341906932
I pay 50€ a year for my 100mb/s internet with no "bandwidth limits". How in the fuck can you pay $210 for cable. Why haven't people revolted yet?
>>341906932
if you're stuck in a place where a cable package is required for internet then :( the struggle is real
if not then stop paying for cable retard
what's the point of these threads?

God damn how young and retarded are you people? It's required to bundle here and after a year the price jumps up. Haven't you ever dealt with the cable company? We just cancel it, then reorder it and the you get the deal price again.
>>341906853
Still looks a bit bigger than a PS4 but at least it has an internal power supply and can stand vertical now.

>>341906932
>$210
You are getting fucked in the ass fag
Nothing.
Microsoft are being so nice that they're making not owning an Xbox necessary. Xbox is now just for people who solely game console or really, really hate Windows 10.
Xbox One is no longer catering to everyone, and that's great. Like Phil said it's all about options and tearing down walls.
Buying one, I already have an Xbox One but it got moved to my workout room for streaming duty.
While I don't think i'll play a ton of games on it (I will buy all the cross buy games on it though) I need a 4k bluray player/streaming box for my game room.
Hate using PS4 for streaming. It get so fucking loud. Like louder then it gets when playing a game.
>>341908502
Or who can't afford a bad ass computer
>>341908350
Maybe not by the time it's available but it's a good bit of added value. It's what sold a lot of PS2s back in the day.
>>341906853
i thought this was supposed to be 40% than the original xbone
Is Gamestop or Best Buy doing a decent trade-up offer? If I can get the new one for $100 I'll do it.
>>341908735
It is. It doesn't seem smaller because it's been trimmed from all 3 sides
>>341906853
Nothing because I don't care
I'm debating getting one. The 2TB one is nice, but I come to a crossroads.
I want the console because currently my xbone has most split screen games so it's most played when friends come over, but then there Scorpio next year and I could just wait for that but if I want good grafix and don't care about VR, then I don't see the point in getting one when I already have a pretty good PC. But then again, people are saying the games would run so much better on Scorpio and it may even have its own exclusives
>>341906853
>still has a power brick
This is like asking me if i want a RAZR flip phone at this point
>>341907715
Where are you from??
how did i do?
>>341906853
What's the point of getting this when Scorpio comes out next year?
Honest question, because I'm actually somewhat tempted to buy this, even though I primarily game on the pc.
I won't buy it, Xbox has no games.
>>341906853
>one thread has some sony shill defending uncharted 4
>this thread is full of ms shills
Silly Microsoft, you should put marketing money into making games.
>>341909063
>still has a power brick
Does it? I could have sworn having it internal was one of the selling points.
>>341909063
But it doesn't
>>341909239
calm down bruh, just wanted to know what we are doing about it.
>>341908431
not at all
>>341909181
Finland
>>341908190
Right. But with a mid range computer you likely already own you can play the same games at a similar graphical level to the xbone, with little to no upgrades. Then spend your money on a PS4k and you have all of the exclusives in glorious HD.
>>341909194
Fuck off, Dan.
>>341906853
What's the appeal of this thing?
It still barely has any games. Was the size that important to some people?
>>341907715
>50€ a year
No you don't, fuck off.
>>341906853
the press conference made the xbonio look way smaller than that
>>341906853
I already have a PC so nothing.
Does anyone know if you'll need an xbox live membership to play the ports on PC?

Move to any nordic country if you want a real internet connection. My recommendation is Sweden, they'll get you hooked up with an even better deal than the one I have, although my ISP is a Swedish company.
Sonyggers so assblasted that people are actually buying xbones. Welcome to the fold xbros enjoy your S models
>>341909409
Pretty much this. Feels good to be PC and PS4 idort masterrace.
Hey PCuck's, Have you even played Killer Instinct,Forza,Gears,Halo on PC? Are the ports garbage? (Had an xbone, sold it, wanna get free KI but it won't let me)

>>341910115
Nobody is assblasted. Its just clearly a mistake to buy an xbone with the cross platform releases in the near future. PC + PS4 (and/or nintendo if you are into that kind of thing) is now the only intelligent desiscion. If you can only pick one of the former, go PC. Its not even a discussion anymore.
>>341910795
>PS4
As a sonygger, there isn't even a reason for that anymore. Destiny, Disgaea 5 and Bloodborne are the only exclusives out right now and Destiny was shit. If you buy it for shit like Nier and Persona 5 you are going to be waiting a long time. Might as well wait for a sale otherwise enjoy your 6 month paperweight.

EVERY FUCKING TIME. Well ok, not every time. The 360 was the only one that reversed this process, so why is the bone going backwards?Goddamn I really miss my fat PS3. Really pissed Slims were all the stores had after my fat one died.
>>341911830
I think the slim is cute and the super slim is an abomination. the original fat is the coolest looking and my favorite, it's a shame they break if you don't open em up and fuck with thermal paste

Rural places may only have one choice of service provider.
So a cable company can have a field day setting rates due to no competition.

Stillborn console. Who will buy this when Scorpio is coming next year? Who would pick up a console that's already outdated?
>>341912586

Also not even what they wanted to make. Apparently things with Activision got really shafty and everyone had to settle with a product that was pretty far from what they intended.

>>341912586
Throw-away story, Same repetitive missions, lazy cliffhanger ending, bullet sponge enemies. Lazy voice-acting. I wanted it to be good, I was hoping for something like an open world Halo on PS4 but I regret the 60$ I spent on it.
>>341913827
>I'd love to plop it on my desk and play some halo with a kb+m
Well halo 5 forge is gonna be free for pc with no matchmaking or single player so you can probably play with /v/ online in custom games.
>>341913905
don't you have that in america? it's fairly new here, but i got it little over a year ago
>>341913332
If the Scorpio is really everything they say its going to be, it's going to cost quite a bit. The fact that they're keeping the format the same for each console is going to be the real selling point. Any one of them will play Xbone compatible games and they're all cross buy. Its just a budget difference at this point.

>>341914104
google fiber offers that, but it's only in a few cities right now.
America's infrastructure is incredibly dated and very expensive to rebuild, so the US is stuck with shit internet speeds until telecom companies decide to get off their asses and get to work.

Again, opinion discarded. Nobody plays an MMO like game for the story, and as far as MMO like games go, name another one with a better story. Go ahead, i will wait.
>>341914457
How did you get decent internet in the middle of nowhere? Satellite or did you have cable laid?
>>341906853
I literally bought a ps4 today for sony exclusives and the show(lol normie). Ill grab gears 4 on pc once reviews come out that its not retarfed and broken like UE was. I want that elite gears controller too.
Speaking of UE anyone on /v/ play it on pc? Is the population non existant? Is the game fixed? What about Quantum Break on pc?
>>341914709
Cable. Satilite internet is pure garbage and ive never heard of 100Mbps satilite connections. Maybe i havent looked hard enough but i have no reason to.
>>341914107
You're wrong, though. Phil Spencer was interviewed by Giant Bomb's Jeff Gertsmann and he literally said to him that the Xbox One S and the Xbox One are the same console, the only differences being 'better colors' if you own a TV that has HDR support and 4k blu-ray support. That's it. He openly said games will have the same resolution, same framerate, same everything on both the Xbox One and Xbox One S.
Essentially, it's low-mid end = Xbox One and Xbox One S, mid-high end = Scorpio, high end = PC, according to him.
The problem is that we all know games will be made (and shown during conferences) running on a Scorpio after it gets released, so it'll be a low framerate fest for owners of the original Xbox One that get hyped for upcoming games. Sure, all games will be compatible with all platforms, but at what cost?
>>341914912
I don't think I'm wrong, you essentially just agreed with me and reiterated what I said you dumb bitch.
>>341914687

Which will be never. Why would you bother improving a system when the only other options either dont exist, or cost just as much money for equally shit service? They have a money printing machine that will make them no more money reguardless of customer satisfaction.
>>341915123
Are you dumb? You literally said the Xbox One S is mid end while the original Xbox One is low end, but as I pointed out, Phil Spencer specifically went on Giant Bomb's livestream to address some confusion about the systems and said both run games the exact same way.
>>341914893
>Speaking of UE anyone on /v/ play it on pc? Is the population non existant? Is the game fixed? What about Quantum Break on pc?
No one knows. QB got mostly 7/10s not talked about much so no buzz. A movie game with some gameplay in the end. Who wants that?
UE is just Gears 1. Why would anyone care about such an old game when we had the first on windows already with gfwl years ago in 2007?
Rise of the tomb raider was on steam which was pretty good and so was cuphead. No need to go to their store.
I'm guessing dead rising 4 might but it's gonna be on steam in 3 months.
Forza Horizon 3, Scalebound, Crackdown, Halo and GoW might do it. If they fixed their store by then to match origins/steam there should not be an issue.
Important to note that two proper releases like Killer Instinct and forza apex are fine. If they keep that up there should be no issues. It was obvious QB was rushed and was built around the limitations of the xbone and the UE had dx12 slapped on top and not built for it directly.
Scorpio is going to cost around 599-799 if they go for the goals that they want to reach.
And even then you can get computer with probably twice the power at the same price.
It's just that the masses are too fucking idiotic to know how a computer works. It's not even fucking hard the meme 'expensive lego' actually do it justice.
TL;DR
Only casual faggots will buy it.
>>341915279
>WoW
This is bait right?
>FFanything
Yeah this is bait.
>SWTOR
The story was written for them by lucas films ages ago, they just had to fill in the blanks. Also SWTORs story doesnt make up for the fact that the game was a steaming heap of shit overall.
>>341909194
>Waluigi
excellent taste
>>341915279
The story practically didn't make it in. Joseph Staten's work was yoinked form the game and relegated to the codex cards you unlock. He wrote reams of content for that game's story and world, but apparently Activision fuckery forced it out of the actual game and into the unlocks.
So Destiny really doesn't have a story, as it stands.
>>341915480
>>341914912
you are retarded you're agreeing with him
>>341915573
>Scorpio is going to cost around 599-799 if they go for the goals that they want to reach.
Nah. There's a year delay for a reason. 4 to 6 tflops is a regular jump for a year. I mean the last budget card amd dropped was the 380 which has 3.5 tflops. The 480 has 5.5 tflops. They both cost the same at release. Meaning the scorpio will cost the same as the neo when it releases. Maybe 100 bucks more IF they use zen.
>>341909709
It's a dramatized animation. And it says 40% smaller right there. That means it's 60% in size as the OG XB1. Anyone with a brain can figure this out....

You guys realise you can use keyboard and mouse already? This has been available for Xbone/PS4 since the gen started. People have been using adaptors since the original Xbox came out with its abborhant original controller, and while these adaptors started out really shitty two gens ago, current ones are amazing. If you also have a good mouse, you're basically set.
>>341915423
Can't someone else come along and start building their own infrastructure? Like google. Why is it taking so long for google to get fiber across the country?
i'm gonna wait until there's a trade in deal
>>341916735
Because if you have enough money to build a fiber infrastructure, you are better off just sitting on it and enjoying life, or investing in already existing entities, than you are building your own ISP.
how long until the Scorpio S is announced?
>>341906853
it looks like a white PS2
>>341916309
Yeah but what if I want to play Halo 5 MP on Xbox One? Wouldn't the adapter just emulate analog stick input, which isn't true mouse input?
>>341906853
Selling my xbone and not buy another one.
>>341906853
