More people will still opt for the cheaper Xbox One S than Scorpio

You know something is not right, when you let Gamestop do the PR talking for you.

I would rather have some random developer (I'm looking at you gamingbolt) do the PR talking than GameStop.

Ok enough of the hype. We need REAL info MS. Specs, PRICE, availability etc. If this thing retails for anything north of $599 it is DOA. Then again this is M$. The company that sells a $149 controller.

GTX 1080 TI SLI (says HI)

Microsoft, just take my money. Can't wait...

And a very expensive unit TBA at E3. Very curious about the price.

Im not going to lie, I am excited for the Scorpio.

Hope so, we need another console war. With PlayStation leading the way for so many years it's quite dull.

Ps4 fanboys!!! ASSEMBLEEEEEE!

That's great.

Where are the games?

I'm sure it will be. Hopefully on the outside its not a betamax player eyesore like the original Xbone is though.

Do they ever say anything negative about a hardware or software provider? Anyway I'm curious about it but they're going to have to knock it out of the park this e3. I'm certain graphically it'll wow ppl and plenty will go out and buy it for that reason, I wanna see those exclusives tho and an affordable price point.

I mean... it's at 6TF console, that's to be expected. The game will have great titles, that's to be expected... the Xbox One has great titles now. The only thing I'm wondering is... what's up with all the GameStop articles recently, I thought GameStop was a hated and untrustworthy company?

People saying 'Scorpio' will be DOA etc because of the price... they don't understand the business model.

It's not a separate console that needs to reach a critical mass on the sales front in order to make it a viable platform and attract developers... it's one and the same with the existing xbox ecosystem so from microsofts point of view it doesn't matter whether you have XB1S, Scorpio or Windows PC.... all 3 give them the potential to sell software into.

The Scorpio is a great option for those that like the simplicity of a console but are willing to pay for the performance of a gaming PC.

I really hope they pull it off, I've been a bit of an xbox fanboy for years but this year I have found myself leaning towards the PS4 pro I picked up due to the exclusives... Last of Us, Until Dawn and of course, I can now play my beloved Titanfall 2 in 1440p and almost perfect 60fps frame rate. (Put about 50 hours in on xbox version and loved it but the PS4 pro version is so much sweeter!)

Company that sells only video game stuffs hypes upcoming video game console. NEWS AT 11

That's nice but the important question is...will it have a plethora of original exclusive games when it's released.

All arise for the King

Phil said he wants to reveal before E3!

What else would Gamstop say, Don't buy this console it has no games and we dont want to make money?

Instead of buying a $450 dollar console, why not buy a $450 dollar graphics card that will wipe it's @$$ with this?

lol Gamestop hyping up the next flop. What they always do.

Honestly. Gamestop I agree with you.

GameStop says...

Do people actually care about what they think? I sure as hell don't.

Meanwhile GameStop's earnings drop... a coincidence? Not a chance! They know their business is shrinking and they need all the boxes sold they can get their hands on to survive.

I was in the market for a new console, and I've already got the PS4 at home.

I currently study in Japan, and I thought "Why not, I should give Xbox a chance, they've made such excellent franchises that I enjoyed as a kid, I'll see if I can pick one up". So I go to my nearest store and I can't even find one. Not even a single piece of evidence to it ever being sold. So I bought a PS4 again.

End of story.

The Xbox no longer exists, in Japan, it's simply a myth. Cheers!

Bear in mind, this is the same company that said Switch will outsell Wii, lol.

Yeah to the hell yeah , can't wait to get my unit. No need to hate enjoy and allow others to enjoy

...And water is wet.

Of course gamestop will say that. They're selling it!

Show me the games! The hardware can be great on paper but it's worth nothing to me without a solid list of titles.

Gonna start saving up my pennies. Gotta get that Scorpio on launch!

One they don't got game or any real company foces on blowing us gamer mind. like PlayStation company luv them got the best game and support behind them. Fan of both but see Ms, online can only take you so far.

I'm pre-ordering as soon as they start taking them. I've got high hopes for its launch. Maybe this time they can make a REAL Halo game. With particle effects galore and insane textures. It's all about the games.

KEEP CALM....
IT'S OFFICIALLY
SCORPIO
SEASON!

true beastmode incoming

Will be nice if ms bites the bullet and sells at a lost

Let's hope Microsoft show us some great games for this beast. At the end of the day that's what matters right.

And just like that...a mere glimpse of the hatred fueled anguish that will send Scorpio articles shooting through the roof.

Thank you fanboys... you will create the buzz.

And I cannnot wait to purchase the Xbox VEGA.

Did MS change their stance on exclusives or is everything coming out for the scorpio also coming to Xbox One.

But will it blend?

Return of the King

Yeah! thats gamestop all right! WHatever they can say so people go buy hardware! cause they are selling less games each day.

What I find funny is the fact that Gamestop always says this when a new console come's out!
Actually, did Gamestop ever said: this new console as fail to impress us or we find it lacking?

who is the so called person that represents "Gamestop"
...

That's good to hear GameStop. I can't wait to pre-order the Scorpio direct from the Microsoft Store 😘

So a company was impressed by a console? How does does something that is not human have an opinion?

It's not going to be called *The Scorpio* you guys, More likely it's going to be called : One Powerful Unit.

I'm gonna be buying this, can't wait.

I'm certainly hoping for the best. The best $700 can buy. I'm right, and it's all right.

Can't wait for the new catalog of 4k controllers lolololol

OK MS but where are the new Ip's seriously if they don't show something at E3 that excites people then it will be DOA. Some people will buy the Scorpio no matter what but if this thing is more than 500 bucks it's not going to be mainstream specially if the PS4 drops it's price and the Switch starts to drop more games.

Very powerful, really strong, mad sexy, I don't give a shit. Tell me what Its going to cost. 450 i'm in. Anything more than that its a wrap.

Yea yea it will be super powerful. Xbox fanboys will have a wank over it, nobody else will care. Pretty much just like the xbox one. Microsoft can compete with Sony on the hardware side but they are light years away on the software front which is way more important. Software sells hardware. Nobody can argue that. Better bring the games microsoft but everyone knows they'll just being more halo, gears and forza with a timed 3rd party exclusive. Microsoft don't give a damn about making new ip or building their 1st party portfolio.

Whop de doo. It still can't play Bloodborne, my best game ever.

That's because they want to resell their used games. They almost lost Xbox one this generation.

Project Scorpio or Xbox X the official name (what it will be called) at the reveal is causing a stir. I like all this popcorn willy waving, it makes good reading - Barry (Boomerang Grenade).

Obviously Scorpio is looking to have impressive specs but the idea "Gamestop" has any merit behind its voice in such spec reference is puzzling.

And? What is there to play on the thing? More Forza and Halo?

I feel like there is zero hype for the scopio.

what a pity. microsoft is the new nintendo. they can put out whatever they want. as long as they are not learning that their basic business is games that thrill gamers i call them delusional. nintendo would be great, if they acknowledged that there were industry and market standards. microsofts bone would be awesome if there was an incentive to buy it if you got ps4+pc.

People do get that theres an obvious benefit for Gamestop to make these kinds statements right, I mean people do get that? Lol, they're hardly an impartial party here.

They can provide a more powerful console than a latest gaming PC, it's no good because they have no exclusives worth playing, only multiplatform domination.

Well announce three new IP's and maybe two that haven't been seen in years and maybe I'll take notice.

GameStop will say anything, that's not hating, for any product they are going to say it's worth its weight in gold.

It could release with a port of ET from the 80s as its only launch game, GameStop will try to get those preorders up.

They said the same thing about the Xbox One and now this.

@vega275 "All i see from yours and many sonyfanboy comments. Are that everyone should love sony and the ps4 as you do. That any game released on X1 and PC doesn't count. But ps4 and PC does."

Lol I never said anything about loving Sony and the Ps4....

All I am saying can't you see what is going on...

I never hate MS games nor Xbox consoles...I have Gears 4...and was thinking of getting a xboxone for it but in the end, I got it for Windows.

I loved the xbox360, it had the games I wanted and I played the hell out of Gears and Halo, Lost Odyssey and many others...

But as soon as MS unveiled the Xboxone...I was like ummm...then MS did try reverse all of that and I was in the verge to buy a Xboxone S! but then UMMM again...they announced a Scorpio!!! what does that tell me as a corporation!

Even if MS brought out a 50tf Xbox people would still find something to complain about or blatantly fabricate some mythical story still why Sony and the PS4 is still better and can never do no wrong!

For those that might find what I said hard to understand I am simply "hyperthetically" speaking..

And for those that still have no idea then why are you even here? Just to make up those mythical stories about machines you don't even have!?

Who gives a fuck if its super powerful but has no games? People..please. Don't fall for this shit again. Microsoft fail to support their consoles outside of the first couple of years. Once they have your money from the console they don't give a shit about keeping you..

If you want to spend 700+ for the purpose of having a "powerful" machine then just get a fucking PC..

My question is what the hell does GAMESTOP know about how powerful X-Scorpio is going to be? They are a Hardware retail & software store. What, do they have hardware access to the spec makeup at Microsoft & Amd? This reads more to me nothing more than a marketing ploy by Gamestop, I bet they don't have a freaking clue whats actually in the Scorpio. Their just happy to have another console in their store to profit off of. That's how I'm reading their statement.

Wow Sony fans seem upset.

Can`t wait for the Scorpio.

LOL this news has the controlling portion of N4G acting like chickens with their heads cut off. What do we do? How do we downplay this?

Xbox X = steam machine.

I can almost guarantee that we will see PS4/PRO better looking titles than Scorpio at E3 (they probably show some tech demo showing capability of new hardware) with all due respect to MS but they seem can't make any AAA new IP which what they desperately need, but they seems don't care, and they doing that on purpose, instead making same old franchises, they should acquire new studios, imagine how better it would be if they would be as competitive as they have been with 360 era, gaming would be healthier than ever before.

The incomming scorpio is the reason i and many others have held off on getting a playstation pro... We all know the day scorpio launches is the day the pro gets a pricecut and better incentives!

Insecure Sony fanboyz unite!! *raises Sony fanboy ring*

Well hell at least someone is.

Yeah maybe so but without the great games like ps4 has to back it up it still won't be worth it. I still haven't seen an Xbox game that has me rushing out to go buy an Xbox. All the exclusives have been mediocre or let downs

can't wait to get my mits on the Scorpio 👍
