-
Not Synced
Lea Leport is out this week, I am
Megan Morrone filling in and
-
Not Synced
Megan sorry to interrupt, but I feel
like you don't understand the purpose
-
Not Synced
of this show, because actually
Laughing
-
Not Synced
I was trying to start on a postive note
but Paul, Paul Therote from therote.com
-
Not Synced
the man who can make fun of anything
and Mary Jo Folley also

Not Synced
not stragely configured despite the fact

Not Synced
Thank you so much for coming here and
sharing your positive and negative
-
Not Synced
views of Windows this week.
-
Not Synced
Paul: Wow
Laughing
-
Not Synced
Mary: You have a lot to live up to after
that.
-
Not Synced
Megan: Yeah you do, you do.
-
Not Synced
Well lets start with the fun stuff first
-
Not Synced
the Xbox One X
-
Not Synced
I am still calling it project Scorpio
-
Not Synced
because that is a much better name
-
Not Synced
but we are told to call it Xbox One X
-
Not Synced
I think this is your beat Paul, although I
would love to know what Mary JO
-
Not Synced
feels about the Xbox One X.
-
Not Synced
Paul: She pipped in in the notes I noticed.
-
Not Synced
Mary: Its funny, yesterday I said to Paul
on messaging
-
Not Synced
So I don't sound idiotic on Windows Weekly
how do you say Xbox One with the X
-
Not Synced
Is it Xbox one ten or is it Xbox One X?
-
Not Synced
Paul: Oh boy
-
Not Synced
Mary: and the reason I ask is I am one
of those people.
-
Not Synced
Paul: I couldn't find the appropriate face
palm GIF to send to her
-
Not Synced
Mary: No, you know what I am one of those
people who could never train myself
-
Not Synced
because I don't talk about it often.
-
Not Synced
To call Apple's operating system OS ten
I always call it OSX.
-
Not Synced
Paul: Right, a lot of people did do that.
-
Not Synced
Mary: And I still do, thats why I was
curious about that.
-
Not Synced
Paul: Well now they leave it off so you
can just not call it anything.
-
Not Synced
Mary: I know, now it doesn't matter.
-
Not Synced
Yeah, so here is my summary of the
announcement
-
Not Synced
and this is all I'll say in this segment.
-
Not Synced
Paul: Oh come on, well I mean aside from
where you would buy it.
-
Not Synced
Mary: TLDR you want to know about
Xbox One X
-
Not Synced
want to know about Xbox One X?
It's another black gaming console
-
Not Synced
costs $500 ships November 7th
there we go, you're done.
-
Not Synced
Paul: I have a slightly more nuanced
view of it than that.
-
Not Synced
Mary: Do you?
Do you? Surprising.
-
Not Synced
Megan: It's future look, its forward
looking. Right Paul?
-
Not Synced
Paul: yeah, I mean you know
-
Not Synced
There is a big change going on in
the video game world.
-
Not Synced
Actually there is a bunch of big changes.
-
Not Synced
So consoles are being revved midstream
-
Not Synced
which never happened before
-
Not Synced
Right? So you have this roughly
eight year product life cycle.
-
Not Synced
In the past that eight years was one
console, no changes.
-
Not Synced
You know except for maybe some cosmetic
and cost reducing type of things.
-
Not Synced
but the specs basically were always
the same
-
Not Synced
Microsoft and Sony this time
are revving their consoles midstream
-
Not Synced
and there are some huge advantages to that
-
Not Synced
Including backwards compatibility
without having to go through emulation
-
Not Synced
and then you can address new capabilities
-
Not Synced
in this case like, 4k UHD, HDR.
you know things like that.
-
Not Synced
Microsoft is kind of taking
that to a different level as well
-
Not Synced
because they have expanded the notion
of what Xbox is
-
Not Synced
to include Windows 10 PCs
-
Not Synced
and while its not 100% compatible across
the board it never will be.
-
Not Synced
We already have a bunch of things that
are common between the two platforms.
-
Not Synced
You can play some of the same games
through Xbox Play anywhere.
