Don't think this got enough press amongst the gaming media and Xbox fans. I think this is a very big deal. My biggest concern about investing in the Xbox ecosystem the past 2 years was whether all those rumors of Microsoft selling would come true. This, to line up with a new console launch, squash that. This means Nadella sees value in gaming and is a sign Xbox will invest in differentiating their brand again. This probably means a better Windows store and more innovation into the overall ecosystem. The 1st/2nd party game investments will turn up. If all those things don't happen, this promotion wouldn't make sense.

Can remember being worried if Microsoft would keep going or not when PS2 was beating the OG Xbox. I don't think we have anything to worry about now. They just need to show that they're making true investments in first party studios. No more relying on second/third party deals to carry the brand.

I'm completely over the fact that there aren't any true exclusive games anymore because they went to PC. Never really cared to begin with, just thought some games should be exclusive to help sell the hardware. All i want to do is play games. Show me the investment and i couldn't care less what you do.

It's out in the wild now. I haven't tried it yet because the goobers want to watch Angry Birds right now, but if anything is ready to start downloading I'll post about it later.

Phil was the one who pushed to buy Minecraft, so billion dollar deals are not off the table.

All he needs to do is convince Satya Capcom is a chinese MMO F2P company......
 
As far as Scorpio assets go, I don't own Forza 7 which would seem like an obvious one but I do see two games that are tagged as having Scorpio assets installed, Star Wars Battlefront II (Beta) and Fortnite: Battle Royale.

For example, this is Star Wars Battlefront II. I thought Fortnite was already updated earlier this week but I had another update that popped up just as I was checking for this, weighing 3.5GB, I'm guessing that was the assets? They're both tagged as "Xbox-Durango; Xbox-Scorpio".

Not sure wtf deviceID is so I scrubbed that.

Any game that doesn't have Scorpio assets should say, "Xbox Durango", "Durango-Only", "Xbox-Durango; Durango", "Xbox-Durango; Durango-Only".

The PS2 had a year and a half head start on ogx and even then it was there to test the waters for MS.

Moreover, what they were able to achieve for a brand new competitor in the saturated console arena is pretty amazing. I know that a lot of folks were saying that there was only room for two, and this is why Sega couldn't compete against Nintendo and Sony. Microsoft was able to not only fill Sega's void, but they ended up being both innovate, as well as quite successful, financially.
 
It triggers me seeing people give timdog credibility like that. That guy is embarrassing.

So paid off the OneX yesterday and now I'm on my 30 day detox.

Any suggestions on what I can do with the free time I now have ?

-Adult coloring books.
-Binge watch the entirety of 24 on Netflix (it's worth it)
-See how ripped you can get trying steroids for one month
-Tell your S.O. you need to make a movie; start drafting a script
-Buy a guitar, learn to play Miles of Machines by Jeff Loomis (doable?)

That's all I got for now.

Build an ark...


Or mancave.

See how far you make it into the desert/mountains in 15 days then head back.

Call a one random number each day and say hi in different language, never repeating the same one though

If you like anime, watch "my hero academia" or "made in abyss"

For the western front I'd suggest "rick and morty" or "venture brothers" or "archer"

If you want light watching then "bobs burger"

If you want to find meaning than "bojack horseman"

I'm sleepy, good night peeps
