Shagger Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 And right way I've got issues. First, the name, it's dangerously close to XBox One X. There's a very real possibility that someone can accidentally buy the wrong console. Maybe I'm overacting, but I actually thought Scarlett was better. Second, it looks like something one would mallet into the ground to build a fence. But then there was this, in full game rendered footage, and I find myself falling in love... Haven't seen much talk of features yet, and Microsoft hasn’t addressed reports of the company’s plans for two next-gen consoles, but the Xbox “Series” X naming does suggest there won’t be just a single console. We understand Microsoft is planning two new consoles for Series X, with a second lower priced and less powerful console planned alongside the more powerful main console. For nerds, the Xbox Series X will include a custom-designed CPU based on AMD’s Zen 2 and Radeon RDNA architecture. Microsoft is also using an NVMe SSD on Xbox Series X, which promises to boost load times. Xbox Series X will also support 8K gaming, frame rates of up to 120 fps in games, ray tracing, and variable refresh rate support. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Yeah the name was kinda of a bad choice, Scarlet sounded cooler, but the design is fine I dont see a problem with it , I mean every time a new console is released they always look like a giant brick. Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 being a Microsoft Exclusive is a huuuuge improvement for Microsoft, they are really stepping up their game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 UPDATE The Series x will support backwards compatibly all the way back to the original Xbox and be compatible with XB1 peripherals, although that was to be expected. I do think some idiots work at Polygon though. The headline is "Four Generations of Backwards Compatibility" when this is only the fourth XBox. Twits In any case, here's Polygon's article. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 The box design looks plain and simple. Kind of similar to alexa type just squarish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
