I would disagree with the "new console" view of the 1S and Neo, it's just a video card upgrade in my opinion. The games themselves won't be different discs or anything like that, at least that's what my impression was. If Sony and Microsoft do not have to make a separate game for the new machines it isn't a new console.

I don't consider that to be new criteria but I can see why some may use that.

The games being developed will be developed for the newest and best hardware out there which is the S and the Neo. That doesn't mean they won't be great games on the current consoles but developers will be looking to utilize the new internals and capabilities of the newer consoles as they are much more powerful and opens up the opportunities for them.

That said I don't even think the current set of consoles were even maximized by most developers of their current capacity so it may be some while before we see some major differences.

It's a way for them to sell more consoles to fit the 4K craze. Just like the 360 that added the HD Drive and later upgraded the console to support HDMI. I still don't see it as a new console and the statement you make about Maximizing the console. They haven't found a way to maximize what they currently have.

Project Scorpio due out next year, late 2017.

This will be coug's new console that will support true 4k gaming, VR, and other future proofing of consoles as the PC master race continues to stretch it's lead.

If the games will be programmed for 4K then that is worth it but my TV already up converts an HD pic to 4K so not worth it if the games will not be released in 4K.

They say over 100 hours just for the story in Witcher 3 but well worth it.

XB1 owners:
Me
You
Coug
AJ's sons
Oracle

Maybe I over estimated.
I just started playing again after a couple of years away from gaming. I played the NCAA 16 dynasty with Luis and Pete on the PS3 until that died sometime last year. Other than that game, I quit playing other games for the past two years, and now I have returned to the Xbox One. I just bought a Xbox One S for the bedroom, while my son plays on the original Xbox One in the game room with my Gamertag. Does anyone still use the Xbox One system? This is an old thread...

Is there a group of guys that play together, or is it just everyone plays there own game? I just bought the most recent Metal Gear game, going to try it out. I also have Titanfall 2, but have not unwrapped the case yet; heard it was a great game, so I am going to try it out.

I think everyone does their own thing now a days. Not much of the online groups or game type going on.

I usually stick to what EA Access has (buy it if you havent) and the free games as my backlog of games is so large its not worth buying anything new right now. They do have a ton of sales for games at like 75% off and I keep my eyes on that and jump on them every now and again.

Xbox Live is definitely the best online guide in my book compared to the PSN, have always been a Xbox 360 and Xbox One owner when we were playing during the good old days of the NDL Dynasty League. Feel free to add my gamertag anyone who plays the Xbox One! I want to start playing since I have time now since my accident.

Netflix like service headed to XB called GamePass.

All older stuff but for me tons of games I never played and they will be adding 6 new games a month or so.

$10, not bad at all. Also, you get to download the game versus stream it for a better playing experience vs PSNow.

RE: Xbox One, S or X - Xbox Scarlett (Lockhart/Anaconda)

Post by BlackRain »

Just for the Xbox fans, IF ANY ARE STILL LEFT. If any of you still play the Xbox One or Xbox 360. I bought an Xbox One X back when it was released back in late 2017. A much faster system and the 4K graphics are amazing, and I do see the differences when playing online, for example, it seems like I get into the online match much faster compared to some of the other players, but internet connections/system have something to do with it. I just noticed I am not lagging behind like the original Xbox One or Xbox One S in online games, and I deal with less lag in multiplayer games since I bought the Xbox One X.

Xbox Project Scarlett - Release Holiday 2020 - Two different type consoles - the Lockhart (Lower Spec Model) and Anaconda (Higher End Model) https://www.gamespot.com/articles/new-x ... 0-6467559/. I am an Xbox fan and will continue to play when the baby girl sleeps at night. I may eventually grab the Xbox Scarlett console after it releases.

Games I play now:

Call of Duty - WWII
Call of Duty - Modern Warfare - Basically Call of Duty 4 remastered
NBA 2K19
Madden '19
Titanfall 2
Red Dead Redemption
The Division 2
Call of Duty - Black Ops 4
NHL '19
Sekiro
