    Neither Sony nor MS has finalized what is inside the boxes. They are giving what to expect, but not the exact specs. Those wont be finalized til February/March.

    Also, there will be multiple versions of each console. They will both perform very similar with graphics and frame rate. There will be a version around$ $500 and there will be one around $299 for each console.

    I think we all are, but its nice to sit down and have it when you want to take your mind off things for a little while at least.

    Where are you seeing that there will be a version around $300?

    When the Xbox one initially came out it was $500, and didn't drop to $300 until 3 years after.

    Different times. The $299 (could be $350-$399) version of Xbox series X may or may not have a Disc drive and could be download/stream only. MS learned have atleast 2 versions increases sales. There actually could be 3. A low cost version with no HD drive that is streaming only (for Xbox gamepass). At this point, we don’t know pricing, but there will be ATLEAST 2 versions for MS. As for Sony, they will have a Pro and a regular version. No pricing is confirmed.

    I think MS will have 2 versions with UHD drive and a version that is streaming/download only.

    The high end will be the equivalent to the One X now (in performance over the standard version...One S).

    So is there a link to them releasing a $300 version? Genuinely curious if this is a real number.

    I played halo 1 and the anniversary edition all the way to 2017. Games like that don’t age. A friend told me to get destiny telling me I’d like it, I played 20 min and gave it away. Very niche, I’ll buy this console if I get a halo type game

    Yeah, Im definitely not a Destiny fan either, like non. Good news is the new Halo will be released when the new console is, hopefully as a christmas bundle, cause Id be all over that as well.
