@eliminatorpaige: they will be when sales sink like the Titanic, after all the HARDCORE Nintendo fans buy it, and sales go FLAT-LINE

@BlendThree: to me it being a little underpowered would have been OK but this thing has 360 quality graphics in 2017

@eliminatorpaige: not the haters more like the truth tellers, you like paying 299 for 360 quality graphics in 2017? MORE POWER TO YOU

@romeothebeast: im betting it comes out they make the devs do games for it and the original X1 for like 1 year and then say, yes now we are moving 100% to the new system, games will be optimised 100% for it and not the original anymore accompanied by a small price drop

@titang1 a quote... Speaking with AusGamers, Xbox Boss Phil Spencer said the Scorpio is aiming for a "console price point" Read more at http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/xbox-scorpio-release-date-specs-news-rumours-4k-vr#VAKg0euD53pZgG7X.99

@titang1: with the die shrink its probably going to be the same jaguar cores just clocked a little higher and with the space they save they will cram more stream processors in it, and MS seems to not mind losing a LITTLE every console they have put out they end up losing 50 to 75 they make it back on game sales and licensing fee,s

@joshrmeyer: well still people with a slim xbox1 s will be like the slim s is 249 and you want 500 for the scorpio? DOUBLE in price will NOT go over well, the starter price might be 450 but it is not going to start 500-600

@titang1: 399 instead of 250 would be another 150 bucks they can pay amd for the chip, and let me tell you something, amd stil needs the business so bad MS probably got a pretty good deal on the chips, especialy when they told amd ya over 3 or 4 years will be like 20M+ from you

@titang1: regular X1 slim and ps4 pro will be 250 by time it comes out, 500 for STARTER would be DOUBLE the price it would NOT go over well
