Microsoft E3 2017: Xbox One X Is A Great Value At $500, Exec Says

The question isn't whether the X/Scorpio is the most powerful console and worth the $$$... the real question is... is it really a good value when many devs won't take advantage of the horsepower? Crackdown 3 basically looks like a 360 game... Destiny is 30fps. And outside of Forza 7.... will we see many 4K/60fps games? You paying $500 just for Forza 7? Because it looks like X won't be pushed any further than the PS4 Pro graphically when all is said and done. Hope that's not the case... but so far it looks that way.

Don't want it, can't afford ? Don't buy it, this shit isn't that hard.

I don't really have a boner for XBox, I have a PS4 (not pro) but I gotta say, what you're getting for $500/£450 is pretty damn good value all said and done. UHD drive and a very powerful system, sell your Xbox1 and upgrade or don't as I were. Price wise I think bang for buck it's a pretty sweet deal to be honest

A lot of people being hypocrites once again. For one nobody is forcing any of you to buy it. Second I bet most of you posting here are doing it on your extremely overpriced iPhone or galaxy...

I like how since last E3 Microsoft have touted "highest quality pixels" and "It's a TRUE 4K console" and now nobody cares that it isn't and that Microsoft have done a 180 yet again . . .

We PC player have been saying for months it will never happen with it's spec on games outside of lesser demanding titles and we constantly got shot down by people who apparently aren't intelligent enough to see the Microsofts PR bull let alone the constant Sony bashing I see xD

When PS4 released didn't they get sued and bashed to high hell for killzone shadowfall not running at true 1080p?! but now It's Microsoft no one cares O.o

Both PS4 pro and Xbox One X do checkerboarding and dynamic resolution the only big difference is Sony straight up said It was doing that Microsoft didn't and yet now I see people actually saying "but out checkerboarding Is better" I mean I just can't T_T

It's so tiring listening to console players think they know the technical side just because MS says 6 teraflops or 12GB GDDR5 and the likes but truth is PC players said from the start the CPU used won't allow it and it seems we were right =/ I don't begrudge people there choice of platform you have your reasons just as I have mine to play on PC and either way it sucks when you are blindsided with BS PR and marketing buzz words but to defend a company that does so to your face you may need some help

"the Xbox ecosystem is all about giving people options. "We're all about choice,"

Yeah right. They would be all about choice if they came out with them all at the same time so we could choose which one we want, and I wouldn't be mad that I got suckered into a One S a few months ago...oh well its only money :/

So a guy who works for XBox says that it's a good deal? Of course he would, your money buying it goes towards his paycheck.

What about the people that bought the Elite. So, I paid that amount when I could have waited and now, have what you told me I was getting then?

I was expecting them to blow the body doors off on the Exclusives front. Whilst they have some good stuff coming, for me its not enough to take the plunge on it.

It is a great value? It would be nice if the XBOX had some good exclusives to play. As for titles across multiple platforms, playing on PS4 is just as good if not better.

It's much better than the PS4Pro for only $100 more, do not understand the editorial slant here.

I'm a little off with info about what PS4 pro and The XBox One X can do compared to each other, but the price is clearly higher in MS console. Does anyone know if PS4 and Xbox One can do practically the same (gaming in 4k stable framerate)? or we have to wait to see yet?

for a console, xbox one x is good value for what it offers, but don´t compare it to pc, because that $1500 pc will offer alot more for gaming alone. it will run all games at 60fps if the player want it, also 21:9 aspect ratio and freesync/gsync which is amazing for games. will also run old games at much better resolution, framerate and graphic settings. and you don´t pay for online mp on pc.

pc offers gamers choice over their experience, something that consoles still have a very long way to go.

That's like saying "Ford is a great car says the exc of Ford".

Microsoft toyed around with subsidization many years back. You could in theory get the XoX on a 3 year payment plan that included Gold membership during that time. The cost is about $19 a month but even if they made it something like $25 or $30 a month i bet people would pay into that.

I know some people have sticker shock with this price point... but I don't find the price out of line. Given the specs, hardware and size... I think it's fair. If you don't like the price the ONE S still plays the same games and is significantly cheaper.
