![]() So I suppose the lower tier version will be Xbox Series S. They're definitely matching Tesla's naming convention. |

![]() For me the main thing isn't the design which looks basically like a black box with a glowing green top. It's the fact how do you fit that underneath a TV.

The name is dumb. When I saw the announcement trailer last night, I legit watched it twice trying to understand what it was they were showing off. After that, I had to Google WTF an "Xbox Series X" really was. Only then did I realize this isn't a new edition of the current gen console, like the One S, but rather a whole new generation console. ![]()

![]() Even laying it down its kind of big to fit into most entertainment systems. I dont think it will fit in the area under my TV either way. It depends on how tall/long it is. Looking at the scale of the controller next to it, its about 2 and a half controllers and that maybe be too big. Consoles have come full circle now ![]() This is going to sell like hot cakes even with an inflated price. Lets see what design PS5 comes out with. I feel like the hardware is going to be similar so it comes down to which one looks better. ![]() |

![]() Some are saying it's probably a little smaller than it looks like it is here, but even still, that thing is THICC.

They're not going to make a tiny machine with that level of power and cooling as well. Sony seem to be better at making smaller machines, but I imagine the PS5 will be fairly large too.

![]() So is Microsoft converging PC and Xbox? So that PC is the one where you can do wahtevers to it, while the xbox is just the thing where you want to set it and forget it? I Mean everytime MS releases stuff, seems like theyre moving to get PC and Xbox content released at the same time.

![]() Who is naming these consoles? Xbox One was a terrible name, for obvious reasons. Xbox One X was probably the worst console name so far. But they have really managed to outdoor themselves this time. Series X? Really? |

While the expensive machine will be the 12TF beast and I imagine will be 600 or more. No way that version will be 400.

![]() They really shouldn’t go higher then $499 or it’s going to be a hard sell for the masses. |

![]() Agree it looks like a PC and that's fine by me. My Xbone X stands near my TV so I'm not bothered about the size of the thing. Will have to see what the noise level is like given the components inside but it looks OK to me. Regarding price Phil Spencer has already admitted that it was a mistake last time around to introduce the Xbone X at $Ł499 and has committed to releasing this console at a better price point. I think to sell well and get traction it needs to sell for $Ł400 otherwise it's going to struggle. MS still want to be the No 1 console player so they are aware that price is a big issue with consumers. Remember MS make probably more money on game sales so they need to have the console in gamer's hands from day one if it's going to be successful. If they price it at $Ł600+ it's dead on arrival and their game sales will fall off a cliff. Also don't forget the game pass subscriptions they already have they don't want to start hemorrhaging those as most likely they won't get them back. If it launches at Ł400 I'm all over it but if it launches at a higher price point no thanks.

Still, it would probably make more sense to have the low-tier Xbox at least match the GPU power of the xbone x, so they could carry over all the bc content. I'm hoping they push aggressively on price though. Would be interesting to see the low-tier box launch at $300, and the high-tier at $500. |

![]() rumor is the lower-tier will actually be the one x. microsoft will probably just rename it or something? btw the thing looks a lot like my spectrum wi-fi modem. |

![]() Not sure what's the point of an xbox now, just an inferior PC without console exclusives.

![]() I highly doubt it. The key differentiation for nextgen consoles will be the cpu. It's unlikely that xbone x will be able to play the new games being made for xbox series. The difference between tiers will primarily be the gpu, which is far better suited to scaling games between low-end & high-end |
