Next Xbox, Project Scarlett "holiday 2020"

 

[Ry009]

Here we go. Next gen Xbox.

Thoughts on hardware? Sounded impressive.

 

[dwwaino]

Halo will be a Scarlett launch title.

Was a fair amount of fluff and didn't go into specs, but given the gains by AMD just recently I think this will be the biggest generational performance jump than any other.

Is it actually going to be called Scarlett? Going to need to hit up chief for a new prefix but they are still referring to it as Project Scarlett and we are supposed to be getting a S and X equivalent. Xbox Scarlett?

 

[dwwaino]

I think I've finished with the highlights on the first page (Bethesda still pending). Now to stick around for Bethesda. Luckily today was a public holiday here so I was able to get up early and watch this. Anyone able to watch tomorrow and take notes? The PC segment will be on way to early, but I might get up and watch a bit of Ubisoft before work.

 

[dwwaino]

I liked the look of this little guy

I assume Scarlett is just the code name for it much like Scorpio was etc

 

[JR#8]

Xbox was pretty boring to be honest.

Cyber Punk 2077 was the highlight for me. Where the hell is my new Banjo/Conker game you *ers??!!?!

 

[Jack Richards]

they said they won't be talking about starfield or ES6 this year at all. unless that was total ******** to throw people off, then don't expect anything about either game. will probably just be DOOM, mobile game stuff, Fallout 76 or ESO

You never know with Bethesda. They teased ES6 without warning last year.

They have damaged their brand more than made it better with Bladesand FO76.

 

[Glenno23]

I'm interested to see if Bethesda steer into the skid or whether they ignore that they royally ****ed FO76

The damage to the FO brand has been massive

 

[Jack Richards]

Cyberpunk 2077 has Keanu Reeves?!!!?

Please no one kill his dog.

Still a fair way. Excited is an understatement!

They didn't reveal One X as Scorpio though. I wish they had of thought of BigFooty's prefixes before revealing Scarlett as Scarlett.

Bit of a reach. They listened to what players wanted in a multiplayer online game. Yes probably not great without NPC's but you can't have your cake and eat it too.

I met great people online and play daily. I like that they don't have a pay to win model like most online games.

Blades is what stuffed them.

IGN's live stream has been diving into Borderlands 3 gameplay for the past 20 or so minutes. Looks awesome.

What is the issue with blades I've never even looked at it

Its a Freemium. You can play for free but eventually takes hours and days to unlock and progress in building your town.

Finding certain materials becomes harder and like most mobile games, gems become harder to locate and obtain so you will want to buy the packs.

 

[Sterge]

What is the best twitch to watch on?

 

[dwwaino]

I wonder what Bethesda will release Skyrim on this year?

Buuuurrrrnnns

Which musical act that you had forgotten existed will open for beth this year

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Wow the Bethesda one has no energy. I wonder why.

The only way they're coming back is an well made single player FO.
