I think this reveal will just be specs only with a possible demo shown. If anyone is expecting a huge blowout of design features like UI or other things related will probably be extremely disappointed.

We probably won't get any of that until E3.

And I just love the little jabs Septic takes at Xbox fans in this article. Septic is the biggest sony fanboy out here. Smdh!

The daily Scorpio horoscope offers some pretty sound advice on the topic tbh.

https://www.horoscope.com/u...

"Apr 5, 2017 - Just when you thought you had love and romance all worked out in your head, Scorpio, something or someone steps in to put your heart in a whirl once again. More than likely, the intensely emotional drama of the day is a passing phase, so try not to get too worked up about it. Situations may seem life or death today, but remember that they aren't."

gangsta_red3334d ago (Edited 3334d ago )

So even the Scorpio knows...

Damn, 4k and true love, the Scorpio is a true beast and friend.

TankCrossing3334d ago

"try not to get too worked up about it"

XMarkstheSpot3334d ago

How about the day its revealed.

April 6th: You're by nature a person who likes to look toward the future. Today is a very special day for you. You might wonder what the next few months hold, Scorpio. You're trying to answer this question by looking within and coming up with insights about you and your goals that you've been too busy to see before. These will work for you and guide you in the right direction.

If thats the case thats too bad. The one thing I liked about the PS4 Pro reveal was that right after. Sony had vids explaining certain aspects of the console in more detail. I hope MS does the same.

Edit: @gangsta,
Septic a fanboy of Sony. When did he come out? Probably owns both and enjoys both and thats perfectly fine.
Theres alot of us who come across as fanboys but are the ones gaming on more than one platform.

gangsta_red3334d ago

Yea, unfortunately this is by Digital Foundry and not MS. Unless MS gave DF the full breakdown and blessing to show off more I think all we are going to get is basically what is inside the scorpio and maybe a demo of a game (Forza 7).

gangsta_red3334d ago (Edited 3334d ago )

Please don't defend septic, he's a known sony fanboy, and trolls xbox articles constantly.

He also has a great singing voice, is an accomplished violinist and gives kisses on the foreheads of orphaned children late at night as they sleep peacefully on thier beds made of hay.

Seeeptic!! *waves fist*

IRetrouk3334d ago (Edited 3334d ago )

Gangsta, serious?, you forgot the s/,Ive been on this site for over a decade now and septic was always a microsoft fanboy..its only the last year or so that he has started being positive towards playstation, also uses mutliple accounts.....

Dark_Knightmare23334d ago

That's rich lol when people accuse septic of being an Xbox fanboy the guy just can't win

Outside_ofthe_Box3334d ago (Edited 3334d ago )

He's being sarcastic. He doesn't actually believe that he's a Sony fanboy. He's trying to say that Septic is "balanced" hence why he pointed it out in sarcastic tone.

Outside_ofthe_Box3334d ago (Edited 3334d ago )

Haha He's said far worse about other fans than that. Not really worth pointing out.

This is actually the first time I've seen Septic talk about Xbox fans in a negative tone now that I think about it.

People do know that graphics mean nothing without games right? it can be 5K but that doesn't matter if it has no good exclusives. Hell even the XB1 could sell tons again if ms made new games.

Bigpappy3334d ago

I see. So is got to be exclusive to be considered a game. Wow. Sony fans sure do set the standards, and boy to they change them daily!

StormLegend3334d ago

What? no! i'm not saying anything has to be exclusives i'm saying it needs exclusives more than anything.

Liqu1d3334d ago

I love it when the fanboys generalise entire fanbases.

Z5013334d ago (Edited 3334d ago )

You're so blinded by whatever. All you seen was a Sony fan, when Sony wasn't even mentioned.
Say something critical of XB. 'Must be a Sony fan'
Sad.

Chano3334d ago

I thought it was about who has the better multiplats? All these years it was "lmao have fun playing on 720p" or "lmfao blurry 900p we'll be playing on crisp 1080p"

mcstorm3334d ago

It was like that last gen. At the end of the day of your not playing the game side by side you for notice it. For me i buy a console for the game i want not exclusives. As a racing fan the Xbox one has been the better console for this so i got it over the ps4. I also got a switch for my fix of Zelda and platform games. It's just each to there own. All 3/5 consoles are great on there own ways

PhoenixUp3334d ago

Bring on all the puns you can think of until the iterative console gets an official name

Lennoxb633334d ago (Edited 3334d ago )

It depends on your stance with Xbox. If you like what has been offered by Xbox then you'll be more inclined to like what's presented. If you're on gaming sites all day regurgitating the same BS that everyone else is using to downplay the Xbox, it's not going to do much for you. Yes, Xbox needs games. But the people thinking Phil is going t walk on stage, reveal a console and have nothing to play on it are ridiculous.

Microsoft needs to be encouraging devs to do more than just clone what they did for PS4 Pro in my opinion, given it is a more powerful machine.

IamTylerDurden13273d ago

TESO is native 4K with HDR on PS4 Pro. What more do u expect on Scorpio? If ppl really believe the Crap Gamer rhetoric that every game will be native 4K 60fps on Scorpio then they will be sorely disappointed. In fact, there will certainly be a fair share of 3rd party games with parity between Pro and Scorpio.

freshslicepizza3273d ago

"In fact, there will certainly be a fair share of 3rd party games with parity between Pro and Scorpio."

That's called laziness if it happens. Many PS4 titles are 1080p and 900p on Xbox One so why do parity now? Please provide the proof of any claims Scorpio is supposed to be a 4k60fps console? You can't just tell developers to all of the sudden make 60fps games.

Goldby3273d ago

@Moldy

tyler is talkign about the fanboys thinking every game is going to be 4k 60fps on scorpio because... scoprio.

Laziness or proper budgeting? There wont nearly be as many ps4 pros or scorpios out there compared to the ps4 and xbox 1s so why would they go about making a patch for one and a separate patch for another one (that isn't even out yet)

at the end of the day, developers need to see some sort of return on their investment, and with ESO patch for pro making it 4k and HDR compatible, why is it a bad thing that the Scorpio is matching those?

freshslicepizza3273d ago (Edited 3273d ago )

@Goldby
"tyler is talkign about the fanboys thinking every game is going to be 4k 60fps on scorpio because... scoprio"

You guys keep saying this without naming names because in reality it's Sony fans trying to project unrealistic expectations so that they can say it didn't meet this imaginary threshold.

This difference in resolution started at the beginning of this generation, when there were zero sold yet. There was no parity at the beginning but you guys seem to hope it starts now, not surprisingly.

Goldby3273d ago

@Moldy

i'm not gonna go look through thousands of pages to see the 4k 60fps comments. i have more important things to do that waste my time debunking your ps4 fanboy comment.

There are people on the xbox forums (deamonisfear ebing one of them ) that has on regular basis said 4k60fps for scoprio.

and again, you didnt answer my question.
at the end of the day, developers need to see some sort of return on their investment, and with ESO patch for pro making it 4k and HDR compatible, why is it a bad thing that the Scorpio is matching those?

is it such a bad thing for tyhe developers to take a patch they already have, and make it work for the Xbox Scorpio, instead of investing a lot of extra time makign a specific patch for a console that will be a fraction of the actual xbox fanbase?

IamTylerDurden13272d ago

Moldy

The crap gamer crew goes around telling ppl that every game will be 4k 60 on Scorpio. I've seen it.

U don't remember Ubisoft and thier push for parity earlier this gen? It was absolutely a thing.

This is totally different than the PS4 and xb1 having parity anyway. These are extra consoles with a VERY limited install base. Don't u understand that? The likelihood of parity between Pro and Scorpio is far greater than the likelihood of parity between PS4 and xb1 bc the install base is so comparatively low on Pro and Scorpio it wouldn't necessarily be worth it financially to make 2 distinct premium console versions. Do u get that?

Goldby3270d ago

@Moldy
"You guys keep saying this without naming names because in reality it's Sony fans trying to project unrealistic expectations so that they can say it didn't meet this imaginary threshold."

how about you name off the sony fans who are projecting this unrealistic expectation.

don't worry moldy, i'll wait

"Well, can I approach it from a different angle then and ask you, what do you think consoles of the future like Project Scorpio need to do to make the most of the MMO genre?

I would definitely say power is key. Memory is key. Especially in a game like The Elder Scrolls Online. There are hundreds of characters running around on the screen at any one time. We can have a 300 person battle in our game and that eats up memory. That eats up computing power and it eats up VRAM. So, the more they can pack into those newer consoles, the better."

IamTylerDurden13273d ago

I'm not surprised, TESO is native 4K on Pro. Ppl love to scoff at the non native 4K games on Pro and ignore the actual games that achieve it.

soulsx3273d ago

Scorpio is not much powerfull than ps4pro diferences in quality of games be only on resolution. But ps4 pro give us too high res in games. Normal player don't see a differences.

BigWan783273d ago (Edited 3273d ago )

@soulsx

but there's a difference between resolution and graphics...

4k resolution is 4k no matter how u slice the pie.. but when you talk textures/graphics, that can make it night and day difference even to the non-gamer...

i still think HDR is the true hotness though...
