Current Events > Does the Xbox One X's power excite you?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Does a true 4K system unlike PS4 Pro with an actual significant power boost with a 4K player built in for only $100 more than its competition sound appealing to you?
---

Does it make you shiver with anticipation?
---

how many exclusives it got?
---

Not really. Sunset Overdrive and Halo 5 were the only Xbox exclusives that O cared about.
---

It keeps me up at night
---

Thirty

Not really. No point in having a Fatboy with no mini nukes.
---

Imma get an XBOX, if that's what you mean.

Otherwise I'm not really excited by the power.

I just want something 4K to use with my 4K TV
---

no i have a significantly stronger pc and have had one for years

also the One has no exclusives worth playing

...I'm agreeing with this.

Same as with PS Pro, unless there are exclusives for the platform, I'll spend my money on games, not
new hardware to play the same games, slightly prettier. I think MS should have just held out until next gen
for new hardware, though. At this point, games sell hardware, not more hardware. Just seems dumb to me.

No as I don't have a 4k monitor.

This, and 4K means nothing to me. I sit at an appropriate distance for my screens, so 4K isn't really noticeable, and isn't worth the extra effort by the hardware at all.

Typically I go to bed around 11 every night, so I'm well-rested and energized for work the next day.

Last night, I got into bed at 11 as usual, but when I closed my eyes, I just couldn't fall asleep. My mind was racing. The Xbox One X is not only the most powerful console ever created, but it is also the smallest console on the market.

I tossed and turned in bed. I could not get comfortable. How could I expect to just drift off to sleep knowing that this November, just 4 months from now, gamers will get to experience true raw power, right from their living rooms?

I called up my girlfriend, who goes to bed at 8pm (as women are wont to do). "Hey babe," I said. I could hear her shifting from her sleep. "I can't sleep. I keep thinking of how powerful Microsoft's latest console, the Xbox One X is. Never before has a home console been a 6 teraflop powerhouse before and contained 12GB of RAM."

"Babe," she said, "it's 11pm. I need my 16 hours of sleep so I can face a full day tomorrow of being indecisive about what I want to eat for every meal. Why are you so concerned with such raw power so late at night?"

I howled with disgust. "Woman, listen to me," I screamed into the phone. "It is not every day that such a powerful console comes out. There has never been a console with such speed, yet such elegance, and there never will be again, at least until Microsoft makes the next Xbox. If you cannot understand this situation then perhaps we should see other people."

With that, I hung up on my ex-girlfriend and chucked my iPhone across the room. It smashed against the wall and landed into a pile of my other broken iPhones. Now I am exhausted at work and the Xbox One X is still the most powerful and smallest console on the market.

This, but add Quantum Break in there (I know it's on PC too)

It's still my go to system though. Don't really care for exclusives too much.

Give yourself over to absolute 4k pleasure. Swim in the warm waters of the uncompressed pixels - erotic framerates beyond any measure and sensual daydreams to treasure forever. Can't you just see it? Don't dream it, play it.

Oh come on CE, admit it, you like the world's most powerful console don't you? There's no crime in giving yourself over to pleasure. Oh CE you've wasted too much time already! PlayStation needn't know!

Not even a little bit. I'm satisfied with my shitty regular Xbone.

Couldn't care less about console power.

Smallest and most powerful

Or games it seems if you are satisfied with XBone.

I was on the fence but I just went all in on the Pro. I already own it, and the only 2 games I want to play on XB1 I can get on PC (Forza 7 and State of Decay 2).

I actually just traded in my XB1S today to buy some accessories and games for the Pro. Sure, the Pro isn't perfect but I have more friends that play on PlayStation than I do Xbox and you can't deny that the PS4 is the console to own for exclusives.

I like that it's a bigger power jump from XB1 than PS4 to PS4P.
The mid-grades are also good excuses for someone to own both consoles if they don't already: an existing normal console and buying the mid-grade of the other. Dealing with both online service subscriptions would suck though unless you dedicate one to multiplayer experiences.

Why would you upgrade to the other one and lose all of your existing games? If you upgraded the one you have then you'd get to upgrade your entire library. Otherwise you're starting from scratch.

You could keep your current games as is and continue to buy exclusives and online games you prefer on that console then have the other one for it's exclusives as well as being able to buy multiplatform games you don't have any platform preferences for and I have them run better.

Maybe. But the Xbox One X is lacking in the exclusive department to really make that the compelling reason to get it.
