Xbox Scorpio: Discussion
Speculation is it would cost at least $1,500 plus to build a P.C comparable to the the Xbox Scorpio with the estimated specs and disclosed ones.
How much do you think it will cost in winter 2017 when it's meant to be released?[spoiler] Bearing in mind that new AMD chipsets are coming out that will be cheaper.

Do you think Xbox One games for Scorpio, Slim and the current console will have settings like P.C letting you switch the settings for the resolution and the frame rate etc.?
What are your thoughts? Will you upgrade? Does VR Oculous Rift compatibility excite you? Sure everyone of us has an HDR 4K TV in every room =#
But seriously does the Scorpio appeal to current Xbox One owners?
What about [b]some[/b] of the current PS4 owners that will have to switch as all they have been on about since launch of current gen consoles is what resolution and framerate a game runs at on each of the consoles. Surely if the Scorpio is the most powerful console ever released they must have to switch? [spoiler]Those that have been here in #Gaming for a while know the sort of people this is aimed at, this is not on about all PS4 gamers. [/spoiler]
Sure this would be good for MS but not very good for Sony. That's not good news for any of us. No matter what console(s) you play or prefer!
Competition is good for us customers so please leave the fanboy bs at the door, as a gamer you shouldn't want either Nintendo, Sony or Xbox fail.
Will you pass on Scorpio and build a $1,500 P.C instead? [spoiler]Based on the current cost of technology. [/spoiler]
[b]Edit:[/b] Edited for clarity as some have got the wrong idea of this post and its intention. Also added another question.

Edited by Krash Nebula: 6/29/2016 3:53:04 PMI like consoles for the casual ease of play with friends. I like pc for the ability to do just about everything and more insanely good. The scorpio will most likely be 800$-1200 considering its specs and I cannot see myself spending that money on a console. For that ill just upgrade my pc a little bit for much less. I like sonys direction more keeping it closer to a half step optional console rather than a full step. I purchased my xbox one about 3 years ago and built my 900$ pc a year ago. That being said I refuse to buy another console for ~1000$ already especially when xbox exclusives will start coming out on windows 10. If I end up eventually buying a new console I highly doubt it will be an Xbox. I fear that this is the start of a shitty console cycle.
