that's the whole point of the Steam Link and such. you can keep your computer in the other room, and play PC games on the bigscreen in the livingroom

I have my PC hooked up directly to my bigscreen, so it's not something I need :yeshrug:
yes but i dont buy a specced out PC to stream that shyt. streaming cause lag and fukk up the picture qualities..

Microsoft designs and builds plenty of hardware.

This is a dumb ass angle you are pursuing here :francis:

And compared to their competitors, who's is better? THAT is my point.

Acting like more people are buying windows phones, zunes, and xboxes over more established brands.

It's no different than say Sony trying to make their own OS to counter windows, most are going to go with the more established brands.

NO one is saying that what they are trying to do is wack. But not only will some of what they are trying to do be more expensive than the competition, but it's not close to enough to turn the tide of shyt.

Microsoft hardware is always just as good if not better than the competition from a technical standpoint.

No one saying they don't. But is it their specialty?

Put it like this....

If you want a TV, Phone, Receiver, etc. who do you trust more?

One's specialty is designing electronics

The other is in software and networking

If Google actually created a TV vs me buying a Sony one, who has the better track record there?

All I'm sayin.
why does it matter when they both use Foxconn for manufacturing?

I'm literally in a building now where we receive shyt and send it to Foxconn to put together and ship back to us 20 minutes away. I fully understand the nature of what they do.

Because I'll take ones hardware engineers over the other. Are we going to act like the design and hardware of the Xbox consoles has been better than Playstation consoles? Everyone has their advantages with some aspects, but overall?

Cmon breh.

Microsoft has two new Xbox consoles on the horizon, according to reports on Kotaku and corroborated with Polygon's own sources. Those sources also told Polygon that one of those new consoles will be over four times more powerful than the current Xbox One and that the announcement at E3 was triggered by, among other things, a faster than expected timeline for Sony’s own upgraded PlayStation 4. The other console, a slimmed down version of the current hardware, will also be getting a redesigned controller.

The latter is scheduled to be revealed at E3 or at an event shortly before, as plans are currently in discussion. Tom Warren at Polygon sister site The Verge reports that the console will be "40 percent smaller than the current model and will likely include 4K support," which will be for video content specifically, though the existing Xbox One models include scaling hardware to output games at various resolutions. Our sources also confirm that this will be the smallest Xbox ever made.

Current plans have the smaller Xbox One scheduled for release this August. Pricing for the system has not been finalized.

The other console, codenamed Scorpio, is unlikely to be released until late 2017 according to Polygon's sources. It will likely be announced in the next month, though plans are somewhat in flux. Like the all-but-confirmed PS4 "Neo," Scorpio represents an evolution of console generations, one that straddles the line somewhat between an entirely new installment of the Xbox platform and a continuation of the existing Xbox One.

Power is a primary concern for Microsoft with Scorpio. The PS4 has remained a constant leader over the Xbox One in this respect, with games on the platform running at higher resolution and a higher framerate on the PS4 than their Xbox One counterparts. Microsoft is determined to end this narrative.


Originally, Microsoft had no plans to announce Scorpio in 2016, preferring to wait until next year, possibly at their own event prior to E3. This would be in keeping with the company's existing precedent for new hardware launches. This was timed to combat expected plans by Sony to announce and launch the Neo in 2017. However, after GDC, evidence industry-wide has indicated that Sony's timetable for the Neo either has accelerated or was always intended for this Fall. Because of this and other factors, Microsoft is feeling pressure to announce both its new, smaller Xbox One console and the upgraded Scorpio — colloquially referred to internally as Xbox One-Two — at this year's E3, or a last-minute event just prior to the LA convention.
So a Xbox One Slim later this year and a actual upgraded Xbox One late next year??
