![Xbox One X 1TB Limited Edition Console - Project Scorpio Edition [Discontinued]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51tD15FTxHL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
Before i even try and explain if this is worth the $500 price tag
One thing every consumers needs to know before buying this particular version of the Xbox One
If you do NOT have a Ultra HD tv/4K tv save your cash do Not buy this.......
This is pretty much Microsoft version of the XBox One Pro
It's main selling point is 4K content
save your money for a 4k tv then after the Holiday hype/push get this Console when you have a 4K tv and it's given a proper SRP
Some gamers are being extremely dishonest and saying you don't need a 4k tv to enjoy this version of the XBox One
It's ideal for a 4k tv/monitor
This is the fourth Xbox One I've bought in less then 4 years which is crazy
I'll openly admit as a consumer I've been a "mark" plenty of times this generation
But, to be fair this generation has been horrible all around between Console Companies, shady developers, "crowdfunded games", and the Toxic Internet trolls each one of us have made this generation really average in general and help make the gaming industry worse in the long run!
The XBox One S should have been the real first version of the XBox One released in 2013 But, MS made a number of huge missteps and let the Internet dictate there "Brand"
The last 4 years have been anti-climatic to say the least on every platform
With the internet having a lot more damaged then good for all consumers
All gamers should be on the same page But, it's not that way everyone is to busy fighting over Frames Per second, or picture resolution
Brand loyalty should go so far
Fast Forward to November 7th 2017 and you have the One X aka XBox One 4k Pro
This is for now the most powerful console until the next Generation begins (2-3years from now)
Is it worth the somewhat high SRP
Yes and No
Cons:
You should have a Ultra HD tv this system is built around 4K
If you have a 1080p HD tv stick with the Xbox One or XBox One S
It's a massive waste of money to own this now if you don't have the tv it's made for
Have a middle of road Home Theater
with two different audio choices in digital optical and HDMI Audio
You should have a Home Theater set-up
Playing some of these game with DTS sound or Higher enhances the experience 10x
almost 1/2 the games during this generation have better pure audio then some of the biggest summer movie block busters
The HDMI Cable is cheap much like the cable that was bundled with the XBox One S
You'll need a 4K High-Speed HDMI as of late they are dirt cheap at the most you should spend $20 on a replacement Cable
You'll need a 4k High-Speed HDMI cable to get the most out of your console and tv
1TB might sound like a lot it's not
Make sure you have at least one 4-5tb external Hard Drive
The 4k Patches are insanely huge
The Quantum Break 4K enhanced patch is almost 200GB
Titanfall 2 68.7GB,
Wolfenstein 2 51.5BG,
The Evil Within 2 29.7GB,
Tekken 7 43GB,
Rise of the Tomb Raider 30.5GB,
Mass Effect: Andromenda 45.5GB,
Mafia III 50.2GB,
L.A. Noire 17GB (which is a pretty much 4k up scaled) ,
Homefront: The Revolution 45.5GB,
Gears of War 4 107GB,
Halo 5 98.3GB
Doom 58.7GB,
Dishonored 2 54GB,
Dead Rising 4 59.1 GB,
Assassin's Creed: Origins 43GB,
Killer Instinct 47.1 GB,
Just Cause 3 47.2GB,
Ghost Recon: Wildlands 52.4GB,
Agents of Mayhem 45.4GB,
Injustice 2 31.8GB,
Resident Evil 7 20.4GB
The disc tray has been moved more toward the bottom of the unit
I don't like the location just seems weird to me maybe it's my OCD?
Assassins Creed Origin broke out the gate
It looks amazing but, the audio is broken If you were going to get this wait until it gets fixed
Pros:
a free trial of Xbox Game pass is offered out of the box
MS Game Pass is super impressive you pay $10 a month for a laundry list of games from the XBox360 and XBox One
This is a must if you are a gamer on a budget or have children (The list is actually very good)
When it first launched it got a lot of negative criticism not sure why it's not for everyone but, if you are on a budget it's a no brainier
a free week of Xbox Live
No power brick (Much like the Xbox One S this version just has a power cord) which might not sound that Important unless you had
the first couple of incarnations of the Xbox One they each had this bulky heavy power brick which can effect your tv/gaming set-up
The ultra HD Player/drive is a nice extra if you are into movies
A great selling point for the Ultra HD Disc format they are region free
There are some killer Ultra HD Imports like the Original Dawn of the Dead, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Suspiria (Original) Neon Demon to name a few stand out imports
Also Amazon Prime video has really upped there game in there exclusive 4k content
The gaming Library is impressive
You can play Original XBox Games,
(The Original XBox titles is a bit small but, a number of great choices
Dead to Rights, Black, Blood Rayne 2, Crimson Skies and a few more
The only real draw back with these OG XBox titles is the Graphics look really nice But, the Format is 4:3
XBox 360 on the b/c list has only gotten better within a years time
Some titles get a graphic bump example: Alan Wake, Gears of War: Judgement, Red Dead Redemption &
Injustice, (You could put the 360 version of Injustice playing on the XBOne side by side with the PS4 Port of Injustice and can Not tell the difference!)
and XBox One games on the console
**** The Power is real****
The over the top trailers and tv spots using Kanye West song Power at first made me cringe
But, it does live up to all the hype and boy is there hype
The only two things most people need to realize with these spots/adds
AC Origin is amazing looking but, horribly broken (The audio is really jacked-up which effects the over all game play)
A story driven open world game should have audio not have massive chunks of dialog drop-out
Cuphead is massive smoke, mirrors and Hype!
Cuphead isn't enhanced at all and still is beyond hard! (The game is only featured in some of the tv adds due to the amounts of units the game sold) as amazing as that game truly is it's also supper overrated and not for casual gamers
Every other enhanced/4k patch truly cranks every game to 15
Rise of The Tomb Raider,
Quantum Break,
Mafia 3,
Injustice 2,
The Evil Within 2
Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition
All become Super high end 4k games that are stunning....... These 6 games are also not being pushed/mentioned as 4k titles which is a real shame
The XBox One version of BioShock Infinite also looks jaw-dropping (It could pass as a high end PC Port) with much better sound since most PC elitist don't even have any type of real home theater sound hooked-up to there gaming rig
This console is a solid price (You'd have to drop 4x's this amount for a High End PC that does what the One X can do
and PC's can have many more issues between problem installing the disc
To viruses on your PC's
Gaming Consoles are not known for getting any type of viruses
It's a solid home gaming console if you have a 4K tv and like MS exclusives 9.2/10
Microsoft exclusives have been mostly very good But, MS has done a horrible job promoting anything unless it's Halo, Gears of War, and Forza
While legit HQ titles like Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break, Re-Core, and Super Lucky's Tale are all treated like the red headed stepchild
