Microsoft Unveils Xbox Series X, Available Holiday 2020, and "Senua's Saga: Hellblade II"

[Chrispy_]

With Microsoft finally getting XBox Game Pass working for PCs in a non-awful way, it's possible that some or even all of the XBox exclusives will actually be available for PC via XBGP as well.

It's a hunch based on hope (and not evidence or press releases) but if that turns out to be a thing before the Xbox SX is launched, then you can just build yourself a custom mITX gaming PC in whatever case size fits your space!

Oh I've had that since Metro Exodus , it's like $5 a month and so many gaames I'd be stupid to cancel it. I finally got to play Halo for the first time last week

I am pretty sure you can set the new Xbox Series X in the up position or on its side. There's no way MS would have just one way this can sit.

It's not even stylized, like Apple's trash can. Much bigger, too.

Take a look at the controller and that will give you some perspective on how big the xbox is.. it isn't that big lol

Day one buy for me too.. for the price it's a win win!

Also note that the new controller is slightly smaller than the latest Xbone one. The case is supposedly about 7l in volume (about 15*15*30cm). That's quite small.

I don't know what you guys are crying about. You're finally getting a proper gaming machine. Now is not the time to starting whining about the form factor. Or would ya'll rather have a pretty box that still plays games like shit?

Use USB Type-A port for size reference.

...that's exactly where I got the 7l number. As seen in post #67 in this thread:

Yeah, quite similar, just a lot smaller. Windows Central estimates the size of the Series X (based on the known size of the USB port) to ~312*157*157mm, or about 7.7l volume. That's similar to some very compact ITX cases e(the Dan A4 is 7.2l) but nonetheless quite small.

I might have lowballed it from memory in the one you quoted, but it still stands.

Your "new controller is slightly smaller than the latest Xbone one" will be useless for XSX's size estimation.

... Yes. Did I say that was the basis for the size estimate I mentioned? No. That was a response to someone using its size to day how big the console looks. A smaller controller makes the console look bigger, after all.

The USB port is clearly visible at a relatively straight angle and has a clearly defined size. That's sufficient basis for a reasonably accurate size estimate. IIRC the windows central post where the estimate comes from is linked in this thread. I don't understand what you are arguing against. We don't disagree on anything beyond you for some reason insisting on arguing against seemingly willful misinterpretations of my posts.
