The original story reported by Kotaku and later corroborated by Polygon suggests the new Xbox console, codenamed Project Scorpio, is expected to release sometime in 2017 and will feature a more powerful GPU. Power is one of the primary concerns for the refreshed console as Sony’s PlayStation 4 has remained a constant leader in relation to the Xbox One in this regard, and this has been evidenced by games running at both a higher frame rate and resolution more often than not.
With Scorpio, the intention is to end this narrative and perhaps outperform the heavily-rumored NEO before it’s even launched. Rumors point at the targeted performance peak of the new Xbox being between 5 and 6 teraflops. This is in contrast to the expected performance peak of NEO at 4.14 teraflops, which will be 2.25-times more powerful than today’s PS4.
Also XBOX SLIM The second of the rumored consoles, a cheaper, more compact model is expected to release by year’s end and is scheduled to be revealed at E3 later this month. The slimmer model is reportedly going to be “40 percent smaller than the current model and will likely include 4K support,” according to sources at Polygon’s sister site, The Verge.

No leaks have every told us what is their policy for trade ups and such No one is going to sell their entire PS4 library to play Xbox One-Two, and no one is going to want to buy another 500 dollar box.
I feel this seems too early for new boxes, AMD's new shit would be able to put into these boxes by end of next year.

All of your favorite videogame franchises, the games that got you into videogames will now have THE superior platform.
THE best gameplay THE most epic moments THE most epic stories THE NUMBER ONE platform for you and your friends. Women play this console more than any other home console, meaning YOU are more likely to play with a CHICK.

What about the CPU and the RAM? HBM so they don't have to use ESRAM?
Austin White
this is the new xbox 1.5 i know because my dad works at microsoft
Caleb Long
This is so badass
Gabriel Clark
It doesn't matter if it's more powerful.
PS4 has the the strongest momentum of any console in history, and add to the momentum, the PS4 Neo will be lunched 1 year ahead of the Xbox.
If you add to those two things above a lower pricing, then the specs become irrelevant.
Ayden Price
i dont give a shit until it comes out

This, power matters only when Sony is more powerful. Otherwise power doesn't matter.
Isaac Powell
More sales, better online communities, less dead online games, and higher numbers of exclusives.
>PS4 cheap for a reason Because it wasn't burdened by ESRAM, which made the Xbox xpu super large, and didn't help it much compared to its cost.
Aaron Rivera
This guy is 100% right: the masses ONLY eat trash and ONLY care about bullshit. Sony can't lose.
Justin Evans
Power matters when you have all the other aspects in order.
When you have better launch timing, better pricing, and add more powerful console to that mix, your device will ascend to a higher plane of existence.
Of you only have Power, and the launch is 1 year late, and the price tag is higher, then you have a PS3. Scorpio is Xbox's PS3.
Isaac Garcia
The Playstation will never recover the dominance it once had with the PS2. A fuck up could just as well throw them to early PS3 levels or worse.
Colton Campbell

Mason Morris
Look at all that garbage and multiplat
really makes you think. . .
Cameron Gomez
Means that it will probably just be called "Xbox" and actual console generations are officially over, including Sony's. It'll be like buying a cell phone from now on and more people will be moving to pc gaming because of it
David Clark
I could probably get an xbox slim just for forza.
Ryan Flores
And likewise, we also have the Xbox One also outperforming its predecessors. And since the generation is about to end prematurely, they'll have to compete soon with themselves. The console ecosystem is risk of getting extremely suffocated. imo
Aaron Collins
If Japan meant anything to any of these companies, they'd all go bankrupt. The real money comes from the West.
Ryan Hernandez
The logic (not saying I agree with it) is that games will be bc so it isn't ending the generation, much like the 3ds
Jason Murphy
>low on money >decide to go for a PS4 because it's cheaper than having to upgrade my PC after 4 years >WELL LADS HERE'S YOUR PS4 UPGRADE GET HYPE Back to PC it is. At least Destiny was worth it.
Alexander Hernandez
Every one of these consoles will just be using Polaris 10. So they'll all pretty much be the same shit with minor differences as usual. Stop shilling.
Aaron Campbell
>upgrading a console I already have a PC.
Jaxson Cook
HoloLens can ONLY be found on Xbox
WE are the bleeding edge
The Xbox 1.5 will be the premier platform for video games and all media.
Eli Miller
Polaris 10 is launching in august/september. The same time as PS4 Neo.
Xbox 1,5 is launching in 2017, same time as Vega, not Polaris.
Nolan Jenkins
if the new xbox has full 360 backwards compatibility then im interested
Jonathan Long
>More powerful Xbone
for what purpose? It doesn't have strong Japanese support as PS4, MS will lose lots of money with it.
Daniel Cook
lets be real, more sales is what determines whos winning.
Christian Robinson
Well by that logic 2.0 or 1.51 or whatever the fuck it's going to be called will be 4x more powerful than that. I'm sticking with my rig for now it's ageing but a new moboard and CPU and I'll be set for 5 more years.
Nicholas Roberts
In short, Gen 8 was a mistake, and now both MS and Sony are paying the cost of being cheap fuckers
Brayden Bailey
>Only console that does cross region right >doesn't have niche japanese shit This world is so unfair.
Dylan Rivera
I mean, save for a few games it actually has such as Raiden V and Strange of Sword City but lol they've released those on the NA/EU store so so much for crossing borders.
It was nice to play Dark Souls 3 one month before everybody else though
Eli Torres
DELETE THIS!!! SONY PROMISE US THE MOST POWERFULL CONSOLE EVER!!! #ps4shaming
Alexander Martinez
>Asia >Just Japan >No sales units
Cameron Rogers
What the fuck are you saying man? The real cheap fucker award should go tho the Wii U.
The Playstation and Xboxes are like luxury devices compared to that trash.
Jordan Robinson
Destiny was shit and you don't deserve to make purchasing decisions on the first place.
Michael Clark
>Strange of Sword City That's a drgp, it's best played on the PS Vita anyway.
You don't need a home console to play a fucking drpg.
Connor Reed
Oh boy, another box without anything to play on it but movie games and a focus on online interactivity.
I'm pretty much done with consoles at this point. Guess I'll just emulate old shit on my computer from now on, because the gaming industry isn't just dead but buried at this point.
Anthony Brown
>people believe consoles will ever support 4k
in 10 years maybe
Benjamin Ramirez
fucking hell i bet its gonna be huge!

>PS4 has the the strongest momentum of any console in history That was the Wii buddy, of course Nintendo fuck up.
the DS is still the fastest selling Handheld/Console or anything Video game related, during the same frame time of the PS4 it had almost 100mil sold, only the iphone reached that many customers in human history,
Brody Rodriguez
>Shita I can't snap to Forza, Halo 5 or Dark Souls 3 after getting tired of Strange of Sword on a fucking Shita my man.

If it ain't Sony or Nintendo you need to stfu and delete this thread.
Your kind will never be accepted here as a majority of us are all weaboo in some form or way as we all started gaming during a generation where 90% of games were Japanese and most of our all time fav games are Japanese

fuck off, microsoft. Just fuck off. I hate that the rest of the internet is such shit and the only place i feel comfortable discussing vidya is this shill-hole
William Diaz
Wii didn't do shit. It only sols slightly above the PS3 and 360.
>the DS is still the fastest selling Handheld/Console or anything PS4 > PS2 > DS
Smartphones is in a different category, they are nearing 2 billion devices soon. That's a lot more 000 than your DS.
Kayden Ross
I can't believe how far technology has come....
Austin Scott

So it will only be the size of a PS2 instead of a CDi?

The Wii ran out of steam once everybody got tired of the gimick. That isn't momentum.
Josiah Sullivan
By definition momentum is not something that stays forever, is uhh.. a momentum? do you even speak English?
Regardless, why the Wii won? well it sold 10mil less than the PS3 since like you say, it lost steam after 2010, but what about games sold? ah yeah, almost double of the PS3 ok.
Also the Wii was on the lead for 4 years out of the 5-6 last gen run, idk about you buddy bit that sounds like a clear winner.
Noah Sullivan
>Slightly above
Jose Roberts
the "neo" will most likely just replace current models, due to the old components being phased out.
Dominic Foster
Difference between PS2 and Wii: 50 million Difference between Wii and 360: 15 million
Slightly is perfectly fine for that usage.
Christopher Myers
No they are two different devices with different pricepoints for different markets.
Oliver Smith
Most people are retarded and won't lift a finger to find out how to actually build a pc.
Ian Ross
that's why there's also going to be an Xbox mini
Luke Thomas
Wii sold a lot of smartphone apps.
Brayden Foster
Am I the only one on Sup Forums who prefers Playstation?
Dominic Gutierrez
I just want a fucking answer to whether or not this extends the life of this generation or not. I don't want there to be a whole new console a couple years after this shit with exclusives
Dominic Richardson
The difference between the Wii and the 360 is 32 million. But I know you don't actually care because that would cut your shitposting speeds down.
Cameron Clark
Wii: 100 million 360: 85 million
Gavin Murphy

absolutely not!

Take it from someone who has been around for a lot of these. You're going to feel like an idiot pretty soon. Stop getting your hopes up.

I can dig it.
Jaxson Morales
HOLY SHIT XBOX IS FINALLY BACK SONYGGERS ON SUICIDE WATCH
Christian Flores
4 times more powerful than Xbox One isn't an accomplishment.
It's launching a year later than PS4 Neo anyway, so it better be more powerful, or it will get its ass whooped.
Sebastian Jones
xbox has no chance to compete with sony anywhere besides usa.
Lincoln Hill
JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION REEEEEE
Aiden Wilson
yes, pls leave

Why do blacks prefer the Sony Playstation?
Would they even be able to afford an Xbox One.5?
Kevin Sullivan

Colton Price
so why do we have to buy a whole new console because microsoft fucked up bigtime? Some spent 500 bucks to just have a few games to play while getting raped in the ass with another console that should have come first
