Will scorpio have hdmi in ?

 

[Biggzy]

Did they comment on x1 accessories working on Scorpio or was I dreaming that?

All X1 accessories will work on Scorpio.

 

[jelly]

All X1 accessories will work on Scorpio.

Except Kinect.

Every X1 Accessory will work on Xbox Scorpio.

They said that multiple times.

Its part of their official comment on scorpio.. since its been announced.... you could find it on the xbox website if you really cared enough.

I'll be disappointed if this machine is £400. I'd much rather they go a out and make it £550-600 so it genuinely is a 'premium' console with the best specs. (for consoles)

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Except Kinect.

Bring back kinect

 

[fantomena]

CBOAT where art thou.

 

[barneystuta83]

I think Kinect will work, likely with the similar/same adapter used for the One S.

 

[SlipperyMoose]

Except Kinect.

I'm sure you will be able to purchase an adapter to use your Kinect but I doubt Scorpio will have anything more to do with it other than that.

Wouldn't this end up being a $700/800 system though?

MS still wants to make money on this

 

[HighResTomato]

Just for the new page.

Disagree. This is a console - not a PC. Even if it's premium it should still be affordable.

 

[barneystuta83]

What time does this Xbox Central podcast usually drop?

 

[xxracerxx]

Sweet, excited to see what this console does and what it looks like.

 

[Podge293]

Should be a good week. Can't wait for the reveal

 

[LukasTaves]

On my twitter feed there many people talking about recore being 4k 60fps on Scorpio, where is this coming from?

Except Kinect.

Kinect too, probably will need the USB adapter like on S

Just for the new page.

I love that he shifted away from the answer to talk about 1p and 3p games. Show the recipes Phil specially from your Japan trip!

 

[JaggedSac]

Can someone explain this to me. Doom is an Xbox One game but on PC you can run it at 4k with higher textures. Any game that comes out is going to be a Xbox One/PS4/PC game.

Yeah, such strange logic.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

CBOAT where art thou.

Eww... CBoaT.

 

[D4Danger]

edit nvm answered.

 

[pieface]

Define "affordable"?

The elite controller isn't" affordable" but Microsoft still sold it, and it did very well. People are willing to buy premium products.

 

[SicSemperTyrannis]

Seems like Phil's tweet may have been a clever way for him to imply that it won't be just Forza being shown. Otherwise why mention 3P partners when he knows what the person asking was alluding to?

Oh, there is a Kinect cable. Thought the S done away with it completely. I was wrong.

Do you think they'll keep HDMI pass through?

Costly feature or buttons?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Well the Forza guess lines up with that Digital Foundry leak as well

On the face of it, the in-depth discussion of techniques like this may be suggesting that Scorpio isn't the 'true 4K' console that Microsoft marketed it as at E3 2016. But the practical reality is that the document confirms that at least one first-party 1080p title has transitioned relatively easily to native 4K (our best guess would be the Forza Motorsport engine is the technology in question here), and accepts the reality that GPU resources aren't always best spent on precision pixel-work at ultra HD resolutions.

 

[Colbert]

I see. Well, perhaps in terms of content the reveals can be similar, though I wouldn't expect any greater focus on features regarding TV.

I just hope that the reveal will be properly communicated beforehand so that as many people as possible will know about it, and that the information shared will be on one central hub and not scattered over several sites.

I strongly believe you will not see the box and the kind of reveal will be all around specs and the resulting performance and some unique hardware capabilities of the box. I assume showing the box and the pricing for it is reserved for the big stage of E3.

On my twitter feed there many people talking about recore being 4k 60fps on Scorpio, where is this coming from?

There was some kind of teaser that the studio is working on a Recore Definitive Edition and there is an article by RectifyGaming where they say it is coming in 4K: http://rectifygaming.com/exclusive-microsoft-studios-hard-at-work-to-deliver-the-best-experience-for-scorpio-starting-with-4k-recore/

Xbox One Scorpio is just an online streaming service. It's Zen Vega stack clusters. You don't buy the hardware, just a streaming box and controller.

ReCore Definitive Edition is coming to Scorpio (and Xbox One) with 4K support via a patch, bumping the game from 5.6GB to 12GB, approximately. We were provided pictures showing ReCore at 4K and can confirm they look extremely detailed, exquisite and almost dreamlike.

http://rectifygaming.com/exclusive-microsoft-studios-hard-at-work-to-deliver-the-best-experience-for-scorpio-starting-with-4k-recore/

i don't think bumping up the resolution causes this.

Also there is a PC version out there so unless they have made graphical improvements i am not sure i buy into this

Awesome.

Edit: Wasn't ReCore made by the poeple who worked on Metroid Prime?

 

[Tregard]

I've been trying to think of games that Microsoft could have secured the marketing rights for, maybe Left 4 Dead 3?

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Assassin's Creed and Shadow of War.

 

[paragonpro]

So whats the highest end specs they could offer at lets say 450? Is zen too much for that price range? Or better yet would specs comprable to lets say a 1070 range card be possible?

Ill definitely give recore another shot, i liked it but didnt end up finishing it before i sold my xbox one to fund a ps4 pro

 

[LukasTaves]

The onboard HDMI in probably doesn't cost very much. But if you think of the feature itself it probably costs them to maintain and update and if indeed people are not using this feature in favor of streaming and iptv apps, that handle stuff like voice commands and pulling program data themselves there's less reason for them to do at a system level.

Would be nice for them to leave the hdmi in, and create apis that expose that for apps to fill their shoes though.

No the move towards 4K assets may the main reason for the bigger package and the included T8nk DLC too.

Isn't Zen expensive and that AMD has said no zen on console until after 2018?

 

[D4Danger]

Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Assassin's Creed seem likely

That sounds like a texture update to 4K, not just bumping the resolution to 4K.

Gears of War 4 on PC got that sort of space increase for 4K but yeah, it's textures.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

With how much Phil Spencer was saying first parties are critical to scorpio there will be 3rd party focused games like shadow of war but if that article is true it seems more for first party to show off the true power

Our source says the best experience is for first-party games, with ReCore being an example for Microsoft employees, and there are definitely more games getting the 4K resolution treatment this year. As Phil Spencer previously stated, virtual reality (VR) is a big part of Scorpio coming this Fall, however, the real focus for VR is going to be in 2018.

 

[ThatOneGrunt]

I wonder if we'll get anything on their VR partnership with Toshiba and those other companies?

 

[jelly]

Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Assassin's Creed seem likely

Cyberpunk 2077 if that is nearing.

Sony had Battlefront and COD previously so maybe not those two although Sony might have let Battlefront go and went for Red Dead instead.

 

[Theorry]

Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Assassin's Creed seem likely

AC seems certain really. As they rotate like Battlefield.

Battlefront is Disney and Disney is tight to Sony. Star Wars wise.

Ok, this can potentially be great if they increase the resolution and provide graphics boost to their games

 

[Wishmaster92]

How do you summon Ntkrnl? We need some leaks asap.

 

[Kaswa101]

Assassin's Creed and Shadow of War.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Assassin's Creed seem likely

I don't really see AC happening after the Unity fiasco lol. I think Sony and AC have always been together otherwise?

 

[mike4001_]

That sounds like a texture update to 4K, not just bumping the resolution to 4K.

We can expect this for all games thanks to 12 GB of Ram.

 

[Theorry]

What has that to do with MS? And it looks like AC is on a rotation marketing wise like Battlefield.

 

[BruceCLea]

I think any game built on Windows 10 will go up to 4k... And be a higher framerate
All part of project helix
GoW 4, Forza horizon 3 will get a resolution and framerate boost

 

[rokkerkory]

Give me halo 5 at hi fidelity 60fps pls!!
