Eurogamer saying the Xbox One X will cost 449 pounds, 499 euro.

Can't see the Xbox One X selling for €499 over here. We always get screwed on tech pricing so more like €550ish.

I'd challenge anyone who says 'just build a pc' to build me one with the same performance for 500 Euro

You're right. It's impossible to build a PC with the same performance at the X, but mainly because we don't know what it's capable of yet.

No but it is only a "console launch exclusive" for Xbox so you can just wait a couple of months and play it when it releases on PS4 with a playerbase that is 4 to 5 times larger.

Whats the point in all of this?

Not one that could run at 4K and 60FPS. Gonna need more than €700 for that.

Yea, I wasn't thinking 4K, apologies. You'd want quite an investment in the graphics card to hit 4K/60, but you'd certainly have 1080 and maybe even 1440 for the €700-€800 range.

I can't believe the Xbox One X is actually smaller than the Xbox One S.

A tear down video will be nice.

My stance before the pricing was announced was that if I could trade in my Xbox One and with that get the One X for €350 I would, so I think I'll be doing that. Still want to hear more about what it offers for people on a 1080p TV.

Not so sure about that. It said 'Xbox One Console Launch Exclusive'.

4k60 at Medium settings, probably (mind you, for €500 that's nice. Shame online play is locked behind paywall though)

You can pick up a year of Xbox live for €30 most of the time. For the amount of games you get throughout the year for that €30. It's like a very good humble bundle.

I'd imagine they had the Surface line working on it. That team makes excellent stuff.

"Exclusively this year." Will be on PlayStation some time in 2018 I'd bet. I think Microsoft would have used the 'Console Exclusive' tag if it truly was 'exclusive'. They did something similar with Tomb Raider iirc.

I hate all this corporate contract jargon. Just tell us the truth!

No chance, not for €500.

My guess is some games will run at 60fps, like Forza, but most won't. Games at 4k will be on pretty low settings whether they or 30 or 60fps, at the end of the day it's the same price as a budget gaming PC and even taking into account the gains you get from optimising the hardware you can't do magical things.

You sure about that? Could have sworn he said in an interview a few weeks ago he wanted it on all platforms eventually.

Either way it's a great game, know a few people who built pcs just to play it pretty much. have 200 hours put into it myself and counting. Will likely buy it again for Xbox.

I am going on the info we have so far and that info came out of the developers mouth in crystal clarity.

But you never know these days. I wont say ever. It could spend a few years on Xbox before moving onto PS4.

Before the trailer, it said "Xbox One Console Launch Exclusive", indicating it's a timed exclusive. So the presenter either misspoke or meant it to say exclusive this year.

Otherwise, they would have just said it was an Xbox One Exclusive.

Oops; My apologies. We're still arguing over semantics though. If it was a true exclusive they'd not have had 'Launch Exclusive' at the beginning. They tried the same stunt with Tomb Raider. Microsoft love to do it.

I can definitely see it coming to PS4 sometime next year.

The xbox one x isn't expensive for the specs it has at all, but it is expensive for the lineup the xbox has. You're essentially paying that premium for multiplatforms at the best resolution and FPS, which is perfectly reasonable, but there's a lack of exclusives to really incentivise needing one when essentially a PC could take you there too.

It's a timed exclusive. The video showed the "Launch Exclusive" label on it.

He has mentioned both platforms in interviews:https://www.vg247.com/2017/05/05/playerunknowns-battlegrounds-developer-already-looking-to-port-the-game-to-xbox-one/

I presume having early access on Xbox allows it to come out a lot sooner.

IGN and GameSpot's pre shows start 30mins prior. They say 4.30am at the moment.

I remember Eurogamer releasing the same schedule too.

Don't have me getting up at 3am for no reason!

Another good thing from the conference was that there were no "And there will be weapon skins exclusively for Xbox players". Hate that crap.
