someone earlier said that walmarts were starting tomorrow at 1:30 PST. So we are assuming everywhere will follow suit...hopefully.
And gamestops site says to tune in tomorrow for the show, and preorder deal details will follow after

I was able to get into Fanfest this year doing that exact thing. A pre order should be a cakewalk.

Considering most people play multiplatform games 99% of the time, I don't think anyone gives a shit except for the trolls crying about how their cheap plastic box is better than another cheap plastic box.

It was mentioned the Scorpio version will come with a stand and maybe 2TB HDD. The 2TB xbone S with stand was 399 at launch. 100 more than the standard S which was 299.
Meh, I'll just buy the standard $499 due to already rocking a huge ass external. People can pay more for less if they want

Got my XB1 that way. Free Shipping is really great, arrived on launch day, albeit late in the afternoon.
This is what I'm planning. But I want to know if I can pick up in store.

To my surprise it seems even the Dutch Xbox store let's you buy it when it becomes available. But I assume when you preorder there you have to pay the full amount right away?

Got my first XBO Elite from them. I made the order before the free game promo, so they told me they couldn't honor it. They said to return the system and buy it again without any issues.
Went to the local MS store and bought the XBO Elite I have now.

Hmmm, i go for the normal not textured model. While the Project Scorpio Edition console looks good I favor the plain version of it.
No way in hell they'd do that after all the build up and waiting. Xbox fans would riot ha ha!
I'm at work for a few hours later but should be back in time for the show

I got the original Xbox One from MS Store (online). Worked fine.

Does anyone now if we are charged right away or only when the console launches? Do we receive it on the launch day?
I think I was billed straight away in full, from memory. I got it launch day. They used a crap courier however who almost drove off when I didn't immediately answer the door, I had to chase him down in the street.
By the way, it's not just MS doing preorders. I know somebody a major UK company, they will be putting preorders online at 9.30pm tonight for Xbox Scorpio Edition.

Imr at the stage I don't even know if ill tune into it, 45/60 minutes of prattling about just to get the 'preorders are now open' announcement. Might just read about it on here after its finished.

Hope PUBG gets a physical release, but I highly doubt it.
Maybe when it fully releases. But its gonna be early access first so digital.

I do hope it's not just limited to Game or something.
I refuse to order anything from them.

It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
Surely MS store will have them.

Yeah that's my first port of call, no doubt Game will do what they did/do with the Switch, force £430 and £480 bundles, in the case of PSE god knows at what price.

I'm preordering from Gamestop since I have a bunch of credit there. If it wasn't for that, I would preorder at the MS store. I've been there in the past for midnight launches (Halo, COD, GOW) and they have the best launches that I've ever been to. Free pizza, free swag bags, raffles, DJ, etc....

I'm going with Amazon UK. Got my launch XB1 and PS4 from there and no issues with delivery on launch day.

The limited edition Xbox One X brings Project Scorpio back
The limited edition Xbox One X is available for pre-order now and costs $499
In June, Microsoft announced the Xbox One X console and in doing so it put an end to the informal Xbox Scorpio name. Now, in an approach that isn't at all confusing, it's reviving the name.
The Redmond-based company has announced the Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition, which has the codename emblazoned on the controller and console. As well as this there's a "dynamic graphic pattern" on the shell and the packaging has been designed in a similar way to the original Xbox console. It's a clever hat-tip to the past and doesn't detract from the standard consoles clean, monolithic style. The green used on the codename, too, is the same lurid green synonymous with earlier-gen Xboxes.
Other than these aesthetic changes, Microsoft isn't introducing any other alterations from the Xbox One X for the time being. However, it has put the console on pre-order from today and says there's only a limited number available. For those wanting to snap up the limited edition, it's available from the Microsoft Store and website. The console costs $499 (£388).
When announcing the Xbox One X at E3 2017, Microsoft claimed the box is the most powerful console created. Under the hood it has a 6 teraflop GPU that runs at 1.17GHz, 12GB of RAM, full 4K/HDR support and a 4K Blu-ray drive.
There's also a liquid cooling system to help keep the powerful components in good working order. Like the Scorpio Edition, the One X costs $499 in the US. One of the biggest selling points for the new console is support for 4K gaming. Unlike other consoles, Microsoft is also including backwards compatibility in the new hardware so your old games don't end up in a box in the attic.

If I have to go through the Microsoft Store for the Scorpio Edition, I guess I'll just get the vanilla version.
same, I have way too much gamestop credit to use. Unless there are good trade in deals from MS to upgrade or something?

Sadly I can't spend 500 euros now, so it seems very unlikely I'll be having the Project Scorpio Edition in November. Ah well.

If the Scorpio edition is only through MS, I'm sure gamestop will have some sweet deals to try to sway customers to pre-ordering with them.
