Pretty sure the XB1X beats my PC. I have an old HP Laptop. Intel Core i7 2.00GHz, AMD Radeon HD 7400 Series, 8GB RAM. I don't play any heavy games on here anyways. I use this for surfing, e-mail and paying a few bills. This is why my PS4 and XB1 are my gaming platforms of choice for now.

Did you play any of the originals? I remember playing them back in the day at a friends, but never owned or beat them. So I'm happy to have a chance to play them in remastered form. What about you, SW? You getting it?

Damn, it's coming out already. I completely forgot. Gotta pick mine up on Friday I guess. I preordered it after a release date for officially announced.

Forza 7’s Chris Tector says, “we’re going to have people playing at console, native 4K, 60 frames a second. It’s going to be awesome.”

Yes! On one of the least demanding looking games...

**EDIT**

Recommended specs for PC:

  • OS: Windows 10 x64
  • DirectX: DirectX 12 API, Hardware Feature Level 11
  • Memory: 8 GB
  • Video Memory: 4 GB
  • Processor: Intel i5 4460 3.2GHz
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 670 or NVIDIA 1050 Ti
  • Integrated Keyboard and Mouse

I'm willing to bet a GTX 1070 could play this game at 4k 60fps.

Well, I'm sure we will see, when DF does a comparison with the PC version and then another comparison with GT Sport after it releases. That should be fun.

The title is a bit tongue in cheek, admittedly, as I know a thread like this will likely not result in what one might call friendly interactions. Be that as it may, I'm curious about what you guys think: how many X1X consoles will sell by the end of 2017 (assuming, of course, MS even releases those numbers)? We know that the X1X releases on 11/7, so that gives it just about two months left on the year. Undoubtedly, the X1X will be compared to the Switch, which did really well in that time frame (I don't know the exact amount). I was going to do a poll, but I figured it is better that people actually state their prediction, that way we can keep a clear list of who predicts what.

So, lems, man up. Of course, all others are invited, too.

Mmmmmmmwa

Don't know what the XB1X will sell on day 1 or for the month. Will probably depend on how many Microsoft ships as well.

Do you have numbers for PS4 Pro ? Did Sony even give us sales numbers for the PS4 Pro Only?

Never crowd fund games.

It's a risk, but know who you are getting involved with first. I've funded 3 games "Moebius: Empire Rising (Pinkerton Road Studio). Wasteland 2 (inXile Entertainment) & Mighty No.9 (Comcept, Inti Creates). Turns out Wasteland 2 was probably the best of the bunch, but still all the games were completed and I did get all my games, sound tracks, physical copies, etc... I heard of a lot of nightmares from other games however.

Yes and this will become the norm for most older XBox One games.

One things for certain he has made sure his name is on the tip of gamers and journalists tongues everywhere!

I can think of no other gaming exec who has gamers and journalists breathlessly awaiting his next tweet.

Phil says this, Phil says that, Phil thinks this and Phil thinks that. It's an endless barrage across gaming sites almost daily. It's absurd.

agreed, its mental. "major" Nelson, has been demoted to cabin boy

It's true. No one cares what Larry Hyrb has to say anymore, unless it's for something free. Phil says, "Hi. I'm playing Halo Wars 2" and articles pop up everywhere? lol!!

Look he is a likeable guy and everybody loves listening to him talk but honestly what has he done for xbox for the past few years? No new exclusives, now the x which is pretty much pointless unless you are a pixel nerd, same old same old excuses for the lack of games. People are easily deceived by his charisma and say hes done wonders for xbox but the reality is different. Hes a good talker and nothing more at this point.

Well, he got rid of the Kinect. You can't say that was a bad thing? lol!! He also got real B/C for both XBox 360 & OG XBox. Sony can't even say that. Have you tried sticking your PS2 or PS3 disc into the PS4 and see if they'll play or not? I think he's going in the right direction, he's just taking a long time getting there. Putting XB1 games on the PC was a bad idea. They should have just made a few exclusive games for the PC. Everyone wants a new Age of Empire & Flight Simulator game on the PC. That should have happened years ago. Microsoft is taking way to many baby steps. With all the money they have, they should be doing leaps and bounds right about now. Why spend $1 billion on Minecraft, but not 1 billion on 10 quality exclusive games?

Just gathering data to see if the Switch is selling mostly to Wii U owners, or if its actually bringing in a large group of people who never owned a Wii U as well. Thanks

I have a Wii U, but I don't own a Switch. Does that count for anything?

- Only game coming out is Forza

- Hasn't put out a game worthy for GOTY this gen

- Focus is on a powerful console with no real future and old, irrelevant games

What a time to be alive.

I have over 180 games to play. Not really having any problems finding something to play. If gamers would stop thinking that only "EXCLUSIVES" matter, they wouldn't be having any problems. Was playing Speed Runners with my daughter last night. She couldn't get enough. Kepy begging me to play again. Also just started playing Project Cars and Life is Strange, since both of those games were FREE. Will probably buy Titanfall 2 next as it's only $20 now. Besides by XB1, I still have unfinished games on my PS4 as well. Great time to be alive. I've seen video games from the very beginning. I can't complain.

I'm finding more and more that the people who hate the XBox One are the ones who don't OWN an XBox One. lol!!
