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.

The broadcast of this that I watched on Youtube seemed to have the right thought on all this. This is starting to look more like the Apple way of doing things. As mentioned the games are supposed to work on all systems. So that being said it is like getting the newest most powerful iPad(the Slim) now, and then Microsoft is coming out with an even better one in 1.5 years(Scorpio). It's up to us how much is it worth the upgrade.

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

Looks like Forza Horizon 3 for me. Now to decide if the extra $40 is worth it for the Ultimate Edition.

Wonder if Sony will acknowledge Neo during their conference.

Not Ori, but EA showed off a game called Fe. Looks quite interesting.

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.

South Park The Stick of Truth getting a remaster, and free for preorders of the new game coming out in December.

I assume that is a lot of flops. I don't know what the number of cores mean in terms of actual power.

I think I'll wait for Scorpio to be announced. It's not like the One S is going anywhere in the meantime.

So if you don't have a 4k TV, is there any reason to upgrade to the newer consoles that will be released next year?

Dan 06-13-16 04:09 PM

Re: E3 2016 Discussion Thread
 
^ 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:

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

For $299 and UHD BD, that is a crazy good deal.


I'd just take it to Gamestop. Probably get at least $150 for it.

Dan 06-13-16 04:37 PM

Re: E3 2016 Discussion Thread
 
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.

The Xbox One S is up for preorder on Amazon. I'm just going to wait for Scoprio.

Some shots of the XBox One S - http://www.polygon.com/e3/2016/6/13/...er-better-xbox

https://cdn1.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/3ie...-s-gif.0.0.gif

I just like having the USB port right in the front. The side one is dumb.

Also, it was mentioned that Crackdown 3 was delayed in to 2017. And Phantom Dust is still a thing.

Just finished the Microsoft briefing. The Final Fantasy XV demo was one of the worst I've ever seen at these things.

Looking forward to Gears, Inside, and Recore.

From games to consoles, feels like almost everything is just a regurgitation of what's come before.

fumanstan 06-13-16 08:11 PM

Re: E3 2016 Discussion Thread
 
It's neat seeing Kratos... but so far it doesn't "feel" like a God of War game.

Also, this little kid sucks! :lol:

This new Dragon Age with Kratos as the lead looks interesting.

The Days Gone trailer was way too self serious

I feel like this is the same footage we've seen of The Last Guardian from the PS3 days.

fumanstan 06-13-16 08:26 PM

Re: E3 2016 Discussion Thread
 
Days Gone felt like a page out of Last of Us... which I'm not sure if I need more games in that kind of messed up reality. Hopefully it's something more and different.

Not feeling Last Guardian, but then again I never played Ico and couldn't get through Shadow of the Colossus so I was never onboard the hype for it.

pinata242 06-13-16 08:28 PM

I can't tell games apart any more. Nothing looks fun to me.

This kind of looks like Enslaved, though not nearly as good.

Ico is incredible, Colossus put me to sleep. I'm looking forward to Last Guardian if it ever comes out but that little trailer there just looked dated as hell.

And yeah, there seems to be a need to create these complex, huge worlds... when all I want is fun gameplay

Holy shit, I thought after Heavy Rain and Beyond you'd think they'd finally figure out voice acting, ouch.

I keep hoping Kratos' kid will pop out from the trees and shoot her with an arrow.

Qunatic Dream always at least has interesting looking games and concepts... graphics look kind of crappy in this, but the choices and everything here seem neat.
