Xbox One X Preorder Thread

I hope I can switch to a regular edition on Amazon when the become available. I don't much care for the Scorpio version, but I could live with it if I have to.

Yeah. Same here. I could live with the Scorpio edition, but it does look a bit cheap near the edges. I'd rather it didn't go so bright.

Is anyone else having trouble using amazon credit towars there order? Usually there is a bar i can click if i have gift card credit that will allow me to put it toward the pre order, but nothing so far

It's usually listed in the payment options with a small checkbox near it.
 
Most ridiculous thing is that the limited edition wasn't and isn't available to some countries at all. So in other words, some of us never even had a chance to secure one in first place. Not like it matters a lot, but still.. feels a bit unfair.

What's your country and why can't you import it from a store online that ships to your country?
I live in Sweden and bought it from the German Ms store. Cheaper that way.

I wasn't interested but what the hell, it's only £450. As much as I dislike them I'm pretty sure Game will have some kind of trade in deal. So I'll probably end up paying around £250-£300. Not bad really.

Latvia.

Yeah, I know I can preorder it from anywhere in EU (which I did just about an hour ago), but I always tend to prefer local stores, which makes it easier to deal with warranty related stuff in the future, if there happens to be an issue with the hardware.

I don't know where to post this but I am massively excited for my preorder after reading this http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-hands-on-with-xbox-one-x-at-gamescom-2017

Wow

Just like Sony, Microsoft has left the door open to developers to do what they want with the hardware, but certainly based on the titles we've seen so far, the delineation between the two models looks far more clear cut - Xbox One X is the console for your 4K screen, and anything else in addition to that (like Tomb Raider's multiple rendering modes) is a bonus. It's an impressive early showing then, and with over 100 games set for X enhancements, the chances are we're going to be kept really busy from November 7th onwards.

So far it's looking like Super Lucky Tale and Forza at launch for me. Maybe Gears of War 4.

I assume a lot of people will get AC Origins?

Thanks figured it out, for some reason i couldnt do it from mobile, only on my mac book. At least the tax and shipping is paid now
 
Will probably sell my Xbox One now since I bought it day one and never opened it. Hopefully there's a reason for me to actually unbox the One X when that arrives.

So went to my local shop and the guy said it probably will get arround 140 euro for my OG Xbox One. Thats more then expected. So gonna trade that one in on november 7th. 360 euro or something like that sounds good to me for the X.

After all, this represents is a 2x increase in the native rendering resolution between Xbox One X and PS4 Pro, from hardware with a 43 per cent increase in compute power and a 50 per cent uplift in memory bandwidth. However, checkerboarding can and does really work well in delivering a great image for 4K screens. It'll be an interesting exercise to see how well image quality on these existing Pro titles holds up side-by-side with the native output from the Microsoft hardware.


damn, DF is going to be so good come november

Can't wait to see how massively improved FFXV is especially if they have it scalable because of the PC build coming out. This means we should have the perfect way to play on the X1X with clarity AND no frame pacing issues that haunt the PS4 versions of the game.

I preordered mine on Sunday from Amazon and all was gravy. Today I received and email they cancelled it because they couldn't bill me. No option to update payment method either. Just a big FU. Customer service could do nothing as well. Hopefully I can snag another one. Never had anything like that happen with an Amazon preorder. I guess there's a first for everything heh.

FYI in case it happens to you. 😭

Dude you could almost walk to Poland and grab one. Just preorder from the Poland Ms store and have it delivered. You will have two years warranty.

I'd have 2-year warranty in any case :p It's all EU after all.

Btw pre-ordered from Amazon.fr, didn't expect shipping cost to be this low.

Deep into his 30th decade
I preordered mine from Amazon literally the moment they went live (while I was standing in gamestop, wanting the amazon one as a backup) and it doesn't have a expected delivery date yet either.

Yea I got mine preordered on amazon on sunday well within the available stock period and I don't have a delivery date either.

Thanks to our Fans, Xbox One X is Fastest-Selling Xbox Pre-Order Ever


Sunday night in Germany we unveiled the Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition, a special edition console designed for our biggest fans. That night we launched pre-orders worldwide and we have been overwhelmed by your response.

Within just a few days, we saw record-setting sell-out times and are currently sold out in many countries around the world.

You, our biggest fans, have pre-ordered more Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition consoles in the first five days than any Xbox ever.

”Microsoft has done it again! The innovation and power behind the new Xbox One X console is driving excitement and demand among our customers worldwide," said Bob Puzon, senior vice president of Merchandising for GameStop. ”The speed at which we sold through our initial pre-order supply surpassed expectations, and what we experienced with pre-orders for the original Xbox One console.

Hey folks, do we know anything about noise levels for the XOX? Or if they will offer the free adapter for Kinect users like with the S?
