"As it is, they’ve been completely ignoring the 25+ million current Xbox One users by focusing only on the 1X."
LOL, you are in every XB1X article. You, Butchertroll and UCForce and making hilarious posts. Why don't you guys stick with GT Sport articles and a platform you guys support rather than spreading the same old tired propaganda about a competing console you guys don't own or support.
The author is on point with "There isn’t a single negative I can put on Forza Motorsport 7 except the microtransactions, but they don’t ruin my experience one bit."
Unless the game is lacking contents, which FM7 isn't, then any additional option (paid or free) are just that, options.
Can't wait to fire this baby up with my XB1X on 11-7!
Congrats to XB1 with 2 top 3 games on the chart. I know many people, myself included, are waiting to pick up FM7 with the XB1X on 11-7 and the slight decline from it's previous game on it's release week is expected. It is a showcase game for the X with native 4K, 60fps and HDR so sales and legs will be strong with the addition of the most powerful console ever made. Congrats again to Turn-10!
Razzer, the difference is for the entire 2016, the PS4 Pro have the holidays in Black Friday and Christmas to sell to end up at #46 by the end of the year, a while 12 months of data with stocks on hands.
The XB1X is outselling a system that is readily available even before it is released. Apple to orange comparison.
Ashlan, you said "And this just goes to show their original statement about how fast the Scorpio Edition sold wasn't because of high demand but because of extremely small supply."
If it is such small supply for the launch units, then why in the largest retailer in the world Amazon, the XB1X Project Scorpio edition, outsold the PS4 Pro for the entire year already at Amazon US and UK? Does that mean the PS4 Pro isn't selling much as well?
I think it is a store by store situation. Big retailers like Gamestop and Amazon get many units while smaller stores and retailers get less stocks. That is how things always work for launch systems.
Looking over the largest retailer in the world for both the UK and US and comparing to its closest completion, the PS4 Pro that is out almost a year now, the XB1X systems sold more than it for the entire year already. And that is just pre-order for the launch edition.
87 is a great scores. You guys made it seems like it is a bad score or something. LOL. Highest review racing game this year, by far.

With so much power packed inside the thing and smaller than the XB1 S model, the Surface design team of engineers did an amazing job to get it that quiet. What an amazing feat!
Now, I don't have to worry about waking up the others while doing my late nite weekend gaming and playing the best looking and performing console games with the added bonus of watching UHD 4K Blu Rays on my 4K TV.
Let see.
Option A: $500 console without any thing to think about and just plug and play on a 4K monitor. Can play the best version of Red Dead Redemption 2 at the higest settings and picture quality.
Option B: configure a PC rig, messing with different settings. Buying multiple parts. Costing more. Can't play Red Dead Redemption 2. Also, who buys Desktop PCs anymore?
The choice is simple for most gamers that want the higest console ...
Nice try, but the dynamic weather I'm referring to is transitions weather (such as sunny to rain) ..regardless if the course is predetermined, which FM7 clearly have.
Compared that to other racing games that don't have it, then it is a win in my book. Such as this other racing game below.

The only racing game I'll need this year. Car size, native 4k resolution, a great career mode and dynamic weather sealed the deal.
Just a month away! My 4K TV is ready.
Yes, finally! BC is awesome and looking forward to the improvements in the XB1X
How u recycled a game with 300 more premium cars at launch, added dynamic weather, and native 4K texture assets that wasn't in the last game? You are not making sense.
Same could be said about other games like TLOU with the pay to win MP DLC. But all we heard were crickets from reviewers.
The amount of contents in FM7 with over 700 premium cars, dynamic weather, native 4K HDR support, and refinements made it a non issue as you will never ever need to buy anything in the game with that much contents. Now, if it is lacking contents at launch like other games in the same genre and extra contents are offer in form of paid DLCs, then that sho...
Yup. That is the version I'm getting just like every third party multiplatform games from now on.
Good for you as a PC rig owner. I only owned a i5 PC laptop so the $500 console that plays the best console version of every game will do for me on my 4K TV.
It is great for PS4 Pro owners as it looks improved and sharper over the current standard 1080p console versions even without 4K textures or native 4K. This give future XB1X owner like myself that already got the complete edition some excitement to look forward to.
For me, the 3 biggest reasons are:
1. Nintendo exclusives
2. Portability
3. Some crossplay online titles possible with Xbox One.
As a console gamer, the ability to play Minecraft and Rocket League on my Switch with Xbox One gamers and vice versa is awesome. And as a second console that performs a different and welcome function such as portability, it won't overlap with my new XB1X that will play the best games on my 4K TV. A perfect...
It is a mid-gen upgrade just as the PS4 Pro. None of these consoles are a new gen and is following the smartphones model of forward and backward compatibility. I thought we all knew it by now?
