Re: E3 2016 Discussion Thread
I was hoping for a new Ori, that was rumored the other day 
Not a whole lot of surprises in the conference... and not really impressed by Scalebound or Sea of Thieves. Looking forward to Recore though, and I think Gears looks great.
Wonder if Sony will acknowledge Neo during their conference.

Re: E3 2016 Discussion Thread
Scorpio is still close to a year and a half away, and it's at a significantly higher price point than the base Slim. If the Slim is the new normal, I don't think the Scorpion announcement will be catastrophic. Not the best analogy, but plenty of people still buy standard Xbox One controllers even though the Elite is on the market. Big dip...yeah. Shot in the head...maybe, but I don't think it'll be that bad.

Im starting to feel like the xbox one/ps4 were rushed to market and this is what should have come out.

If you're going by years between console generations, they weren't rushed at all. That said, there were a lot of folks that were definitely disappointed by the specs of the current generation, myself included. I think that's why part of me supports the mid-generation refresh.

^ Yes. You'll still get better performance (framerate, resolution, overall quality, etc.) at 1080p. If that doesn't matter too much to you (as I expect would be the case for most console owners, honestly), then keeping your existing console will still be just fine. I think these upgrades are for people who think they need the best performance.
Xbox One S - for people don't have an Xbox One already, and/or who want 4K video support.
Scorpio - for people who want 4K video support AND improved gaming support
Unrelated to that specifically, but I saw this on another forum:
Steam boxes are a complete failure, no? I think this person is right... Valve would be smart to go this route. But I could see Valve and Sony teaming up for something like what MS is doing on their own.

If I were Valve; I'd trade making Steam PCs / hardware for the ability to have steam games play on Xboxes in a heartbeat.

Best Buy trade-in is $105 right now.
Gamestop is $100 store credit or $80 cash.
Obviously, this can change at any moment, and I bet it was higher 24 hours ago.
