Second wave of games have not been released yet. I predict those being of higher quality.

If Scorpio can do fp16 where those 6 TF Microsoft announced 16 or 32 bit?
6 TF16 would not be that impressive, but 3TF32 would still be more than twice as fast as XBox One S (1.4 TF32) and passing PS4 with a margin (1.84). It could compete with the PS4 Pro.
But then Sony announces that PS4 Pro can also do 16 bit floating point at double speed...
Suddenly Microsoft do not want to talk about TFlops any more...
Strang...
It looks like MicroSOFT is taking the soft compatibility road.
* Games should work at all later models
* Games are programmed towards an API (DX12...)
* Programmers must stick to APIs and not use whatever trick they may find
- if a HW feature is not usable with API it can not be used until the API is updated
=> some of the possible performance will not be used
=> this is a really new direction for consoles and their devel...
Teraflop - “Well, I try not to really talk using the term,”
Wasn't that like the only thing you/MS talked about at E3?
Can Scorpio not do 16 bits floating point?
Perfect shadows are not crisp! ;)
"feature VR functionality as well as having a 4K native display resolution."
Built in VR and a 4K native display in base package? Wow! ;)

In every Android mobile and pad...
Most companies advertise a product they make. Microsoft advertises ideas of products...

Writing the same long message over and over... please stop!
Since MS have not specified what kind of tflops they have they might actually be talking about 16 bit floats already... Scorpio => 6 tflops (16 bit floats) & 3 tflops (32 bit floats) ;)
Sony state that this is a post Polaris architecture improvement, we do not know what Scorpio will use. We actually know really little considering how much MS has shared...
Maybe he bought it a year ago?
@MatrixxGT since they promised both date and performance they can easily end up in a scenario where they have to cut some corners to release on time... (But I guess they will go with a big bulky box to be on the safe side - just like they did for XBox One...)
What corner? The building is round...
Forza and Titanfall has not showed anything that could not be done using a normal server...
Why the need for Scorpio? Just tap the cloud for unlimited potential!
:S
Thanks go to Need For Speed 2016 (PC) - they had to delay release to make frame rate unlimited...
DX12 was first shown by Microsoft and Nvidia(!)

"Forza Motorsport 5 developer Turn 10 Studios showed off a version of the racing game running with Direct3D 12 on a PC powered by an Nvidia GeForce Titan Black, and according to the studio, bringing the title to DirectX 12 allowed it to run at a locked 6...
Do you really assume all DLC was ready in time to be included with the original game? Really?
They could have worked with it until about now and released it as a $60 package, with a bigger investment and a lot higher risk
- will it sell?
You, could have waited for until about now and bought it with DLC for about $60
- only you would have to wait
