@Cortaa OK, if your going give market valuations then please give the correct ones. Microsoft's value is $528 billion (not 290 billion) and Sony is $41 billion. Even if your numbers were right you need to work on your math skills. "Almost a tenth" of 36billion would be in the neighborhood of 360billion (70 billion off is a far cry from almost 290 billion and even a bigger separation from Microsoft's actual value.)
@Pancit_Canton "^ Internet tough guy or a keyboard warrior?" And what does that make you? Most likely just a giant jack-a$$. You are the one that brought up violence to another. Shadyceasar just pointed out people like you are probably the fattie pimpled-face Wonderbra wearing douchebags that really deserved to be put down a peg a two and most likely the real wannabe "keyboard warrior", all tough talk. So please stop insinuating violence towards another.
@Silly gameAr It was one statement by him. He and other Microsoft employees have made a several statements how first party games will get that, as PS4 fan joys jokingly say, "Scorpio awesome sauce". When Microsoft does people than either start to make some no exclusive argument or say third party games won't take the time to do the update. Why are you ignoring those previous statements. So, it always has to be first party? Major Nelson can't talk about other games that wil...
You mean how Sony took PR concerning the Pro to a new level it's reveal and in marketing. Seriously Cerny was all about talking mumbo-jumbo. But, Major Nelson states Scorpio will deliver a new experience and everyone thinks MS is all PR and no substance (you need to lower those PS4 alternative-realty shields power levels down a bit)
Here is a small sampling of some of those many PR quotes from Cerny concerning gameplay on the PS4 Pro:
"Simply transformati...
I would cause confusion for the general public. People here have a grasp of the system but parents, girlfriends, or less knowledgeable etc... would get confused between the Xbox One S and Xbox One Scorpio. Even people here would, at times, call the Scorpio the Xbox One S in discussions.
I can see it now kids tells his dad he wants a "Scorpio" for Xmas and parent buys the Xbox One S.
Even if they kept Scorpio, which they will not, they only wa...
,@TheCommentator Off subject but, why the code name "Trinity"? She is the least powerful in that group of three Matrix characters. Neo made sense he is the chosen one and the most powerful in Matrix. Morpheus was no slouch either (and made sense because it was about seeing the truth ala VR). But, Trinity was just an OK character. If Trinity is a PS4 upgrade or PS5 it really sounds like a downgrade to me. PS4 Oracle, PS4 Seraph or PS4 Agent Smith are more ominous, powerful code na...
HBM2 is not the only memory type a Vega chipset supports. So, basing it on that argument is wrong. Vega also supports GDDR5/x. But, to your point Scorpio is using tech from Vega not Vega itself. I don't know why everyone is (as the kids say nowadays) "so salty" about this. According to Sony, the PS4 Pro (and it's Polaris based GPU) is also using tech from the Vega chipset as well. Now what features in Vega Microsoft engineers have used we will have wait and see.
@RosweeSon Thanks but the US is not quite that big you think. You added an additional 170 million people to our population than we actually have. We are around 330 million. And UK is around 65 million.
Overall, I think it actually has more to do drive up sales. Like Microsoft, even though McDonalds is also a world wide company, a predominant amount around revenue, 50%, still happens from US sales. And those sales have been dropping much more in the US than the rest of ...
I was just notified today that I have been added to the Alpha. I plan on downloading the game tomorrow and playing this weekend for sure. Is there a tutorial for the Alpha or do they just throw you into the deep end right away and hope you know how to swim?
What? That answer makes no sense. The PS4 is a PC too. Maybe not Windows based but based on FreeBSD. MacOS has emulators (also FreeBSD based OS). It is not some mystical science that is only privy to programmers of Windows 10. Silly answer.
Inzo has spoken so it must be true. Scorpio is next generation. Boy, I am glad somebody has the guts to stand up to Microsoft and state the obvious and ignore the same callout of denial as for their beloved Pro. Took real guts. You are right Xbox fanboys must be in denial. (/sarcasm)
If Scorpio is, why isn't PS4 Pro. Just because Scorpio takes a bigger power leap compared to the PS4 Pro it means Scorpio is next gen and the Pro isn't? Remind me who is in denial a...
Both the PS4 (slim) and Xbox One S are because of this move by AMD. They both use the smaller chipset designs. The mid-gen system refreshes: PS4 Pro and Scorpio are around for completely different reasons and have nothing to do with AMD's move to stop manufacturing the older, less efficient SOC.
I always felt the removal of sharing with friends was middle finger to the Xbox community. The feature was removed after doing the reverse online DRM management for disc users. For some reason doing this caused this feature to go away for digital games as well. From a programming side that made no sense (it is not hard to limit a feature by media type). To me it was Microsoft saying Xbox users you don't want to have nice things, than we are going to take away all these new cool Xbox One...
From the picture the developer kit looks to be slightly bulkier than the Xbox One S. So my expectations are that Scorpio (whatever external design it has) will also be around that size (much smaller than the original and slightly larger than the S).
Listen you could have said it without the fanbot rhetoric. The fact that you ended your comment PS4 Pro and turd gets a down vote by me and I heavily favor my Xbox over my PS4. FreeSync and HDMI 2.1 may be true but the rest is way off topic; you ended with just opinionated fanboy crap that incites others.
@Major_Glitch4h I looked up exclusive. Guess what it no longer applies to the PS4 as well. Can't have it both ways. If we going to be technical about the whole exclusive definition than with Sony's recent announcement that PS4 games will be coming to PSNow means that consoles no longer has exclusives as well. Sure, we can call them time exclusive. But, calling them exclusive is disingenuous knowing Sony's own plans for PSNow. You can expect all those first party studio games yo...
@ShadowKnight He doesn't wish, he reads. I know it is early overall and much more testing has to be done but, DF did actually mention that in it's break down. They felt it was performing between a 1070 and a 1080 in power. Actually, where the 1070 showed some issues on the PC those did not appear to happen on the Scorpio; it did not suffer at the same level of issues and the Scorpio still had plenty of headroom left.
Isn't $449 around 362GBP? How much is your VAT? I thought it was 20%. By my calculations isn't that 434GBP not really close to 500. Am I missing something? Just curious, it has been a 8 years since I have been to London so my across the pond calculations may be off. By the way, it is not Microsoft's fault you tax everything so high. Although not quite as bad. In California in most places (like LA) we pay at least 9% (soon to be 9.5%) and that isn't even built into the adve...
