That's a shame, that was going to be a big reason for me to upgrade my Xbox. If games will just let ok slightly sharper (like on my Pro) hyphen maybe it isn't worth it.

yep, if there isn't a VR device for it I'll stick with the S for another couple of years

They've removed all mentions of VR from their websites and no one so far can get VR to work right on it.

Now watch them say "We will now have Scorpio exclusive games due to developers wishes" Which really means, they need to give a reason for people to buy this console if VR has been removed and 4K TV with HDR market isnt big enough.

I don't really give a toss about VR to be honest

Same here.

Just see it as another fad.

I have a standard Xbox so the 4K bluray player may get me to invest. Let's see what E3 brings.

Lol they may have to, they have been making fun of the Pro so it needs to bring something to table

EDIT: It is funny that we have been talking about VR as I have been wondering whether skipping the Scorpio and getting a Rift or something is a better plan.

I got an S mostly for Uhd playback, but thought I'd pick this up when released, but I hope they get more games exclusive to xbox platform that I care about (I include the xbox /pc cross over games in that too) otherwise may have trouble justifying it.

There's only been gears 4 and... Well forza horizon 3, but I only got that for the hell of it for the hdr. Do enjoy it though.

Going to be an interesting week.

If that's legit then I can't wait. All kinds of stories. Hard to know what's right with the April 1st nonsense.

Plainsong · 2 Apr 2017 at 10:17

I'd be all over Forza 7 on Scorpio.

It's legit and not an April fools, source is GAF and Shinobi also tweeted saying next week.

As above.

So if it's ready now, can we expect an E3 launch? PS4 Pro wasn't shown until two months before release, why would MS need six months?

Neogaf is not a good source.

It really isn't.

Pretty sure MS have already stated a "holiday season" release.

Kobi · 2 Apr 2017 at 18:32

I'd imagine an October/November release. But it does seem far too early for a showing? Possibly a closed door event?

pioneer2000 · 2 Apr 2017 at 19:21

Seems no rush for them, the Pro is hardly setting the world alight as is, over the standard ps4.
