Who's buying one??

I'm guessing I will give in as long as the price point is reasonable. 4K gaming at 60fps on a console sounds pretty amazing.

I'm in. It'll probably be a Day 1 purchase for me.

I've been looking forward to this release especially for the 4K HD. I was disappointed that Sony decided not to go with a 4K HD. Other pluses are: VR gaming at 60 fps and XB1/S games are compatible.

Yeah, I bought a PS4 Pro and was really surprised they left out the 4K player. Wasn't too big of a deal to me as I have a One S but it must be tough for the Sony fanboys. I jumped into the VR market with Sony as well and your comment makes me wished I would have waited.

Microsoft needs to start coming up with some exclusives fast, otherwise, this great hardware will be all for naught. Given most games released are AAA games for both consoles, but their upcoming exclusive lineup is very weak. I'm currently playing (PS excl.) Horizon Zero Dawn and it's the best game I've played on the next gens outside of Bloodborne (also PS excl.) and Witcher 3. No fanboy bs, just want better exclusives for Xbox.

Gears of War is solid and Forza Horizon is an amazing racing game. Seems like most titles are starting to cater to both consoles these days, but, I get where you're going with it. Still, I think for the sheer power of the console itself, Non-PC players will be interested.

Oh yeah, I love Gears of War, Halo, and the niche fighter Killer Instinct so appreciate some of the exclusives; not a big racer but know Forza is the top game in that genre, suck @ em. Quantum Break wasn't a terrible exclusive either with some potential but felt a bit rushed.

If the price is $600 like some are forecasting, I might as well get a PS Pro since most of the games i like are multi plat, and the PS Pro should go down in price by like $50 when scorpio comes out.

Or save a few more hundred, get a gaming pc, teach myself how to maintain/upgrade the machine when needed, and play all the Xbox one games on it.

Surprisingly the recent rumor is they are trying to undercut Sony @$400.00. Would be a smart move on their part to get their hat back in the game even having to take that $ loss initially.

I heard prices all over the board. I will probably buy one thou. I have had an XBox One for several years, up until recently. My Dogs basically knocked it off, and onto the floor (X1) and so I took it to Best Buy (extended warranty), and they gave me a brand new XBox One S. I could live with this for awhile longer but I've been waiting for Scorpio.
