I Consumed And Digested The Xbox E3 2017 Briefing So You Don’t Have To

Yesterday Microsoft revealed the Xbox One X, previously known as “Project Scorpio”, inside a sophisticated building somewhere in Los Angeles. I’m older than I was back in the days when I used to sneak my way into these things, so I did what every guy who is almost 40 does — I plugged a Rode smartLav+ lavalier microphone into my iPhone 6s Plus and I recorded myself making snippy comments over the press conference.

Uh, actually, I wasn’t as snippy as I presumed I’d be. A lot of stuff impressed me. I think I might buy a 4K TV with HDR because of Forza “4Kza” 7. I want to see the wide colour gamut sunshine reflections in the shallow puddles of that damp dawn asphalt. Also, I think if I buy that game, Microsoft is going to buy me a real-life Porsche? Look, I haven’t had a full night’s sleep in six weeks, so I am not 100 per cent sure of that last part.

Look, the press event was two hours long. I boiled it down to 12 minutes. I think you’re getting a bargain here. Check this out before Sony’s event today so you, like me, can Keep Score.

And, heck, I’m going to do this to Sony’s event today as well.
