Amazon has a listing for it, not able to order yet. I'll certainly put in the token order as I can always cancel it. Not sure I'm going to keep it though.
With Microsoft's putting their exclusives all out on PC and a video card that is already double the power of the XboneX, probably doesn't make any sense. Heck, that video card will be old news by the end of the year when this comes out.

Do you think we will get to consoles every year? I kinda figure we're into this 2-4 year cycle of them now. Probably stable going forward? Except Nintendo because they do whatever the #### they want.

Haha that's the typical Microsoft marketing for you. The smallest Xbox One console... by 2%. I mean, they aren't lying, but you can just see them shaving a couple mm's off the plastic to make it in for the marketing point.

Well, tbh it doesn't really matter at all. As long as it's not massive like the original Xbone with an additional power brick it'll fit in my AV case fine. Frankly, the biggest feature it have of supporting Freesync is the important thing of it. Just need TV's to support it and it'll be massive.

You think that's an exclusively Microsoft thing?

As far as consoles... Yes, I do. I can't honestly ever remember someone bragging about how small their console was when there was no visual difference to the naked eye over the previous iteration.

They weren't just bragging, "It's smaller!". It was more like, "We've upped the performance considerably, and managed to do it in an even smaller form factor."

And Elder Scrolls Online
At least they're getting the stuff I don't care about out of the way early.

Worse than EA so far, which is amazing.

Why are they showing Skyrim on the Switch? This game is 6 years old and everyone already knew this was happening.
Please show something new.

I liked the intro tbh.
We've tried the demos of Doom and Fallout VR last year. It was just a slice but I'll certainly give the full game a try.
