De Scorpio maakt mij alleen happy wanneer het fatsoenlijk 1080P TVs gaat ondersteunen, inclusief performance gain. Serieus, van dit soort antwoorden word ik ongelukkig:
=============================
"You announced the Xbox One S. And then you closed the show with Scorpio. Why would I buy the Xbox One S knowing the Scorpio is coming? What possible reason would I have given a much more powerful Xbox is coming down the line?
Phil Spencer: What TV do you have?
A standard 1080p TV.
Phil Spencer: Then you should buy this box, because Scorpio is not going to do anything for you. Scorpio is designed as a 4K console, and if you don't have a 4K TV, the benefit we've designed for, you're not going to see. Clearly, you can buy Scorpio, and if and when you decide you want to buy a 4K television to take advantage of the increased performance, obviously the console will be ready for you.
....
So, Scorpio is for the person who's got a 4K television, who's really focused on 4K gaming. It's going to be a premium price over what we're selling this one for, and both of them will exist in the market at the same time. Scorpio is for your 4K gamer. And that's what we designed it for."
=============================
Alsof de halve wereld al een 4K TV heeft. En de plek daarvoor in huis. Over heel wat jaartjes misschien, maar 4K is nog lang geen standaard. En het is niet dat Microsoft een behoorlijk aandeel heeft in de verkoop van dit soort TVs, wat bij Sony potentieel wel de strategie zou kunnen zijn. Opvallend ook hoe gericht Microsoft is op PC gaming in het 2e artikel. Leuk om te horen wanneer je een console gamer bent.
