What's new

All things related to the Xbox platforms

Reading this morning I see Nvidia added a captcha to their checkout. This is all that would had been required on these sites to stop 99% of the bots out there. I am sure they would had eventually sold out anyways, but it would had slowed things down for the scalpers. Who knows. I am just glad I was able to snag one. Now to join my boiis.
 
Pretty jacked to see this has spatial audio as well.

Speaking off has anyone seen official accessories for it? I see a few colored (bland) controller colors, but any official wireless headsets etc.?

 
All the Xbox One controllers/accessories work with it. I'd hold off on headsets until some 3rd parties start getting stuff out there. Though you can also just plug standard 3.5mm headset you may have into the controllers. If you don't like the controller colorings, you can just make your own with whatever color scheme you want at the Xbox Design Lab Of course, you'll probably have to wait until after launch if you want the "new" controller that has the Share button added in the middle of the controller.
 
I've seen the rumors of this since the Bethesda acquisition was announced. Have you seen something official?
Not officially, but seems like their are hints with a Sega colored controller.

Saw that as part of the conspiracy theory to the rumor. Also some stuff where Sega posted a pic and someone was making an X with their arms and some other odd things. Nothing really very concrete

It’s coming you know it is, SEGA really ain’t worth shit anyways, Old Billy could offer them some free sub coupons and they would probably sell.

Some where in that rumor mill I saw they were supposedly worth probably around 3 billion. They do have some classic games, both from their days of making consoles and some newer ones. Also could have some titles to help in markets outside the US, but who knows. There's an Xbox showcase coming up at a tokyo show within the next 24 hours - the Xbox twitter account took the time to note that there will not be any new acquisition news

 
Cards with teh new Nvidia 3080 were a cluster and Nvidia had to apologize.
off topic of xbox, I saw somewhere (I thought here but don't see it now) I heard nVidia had added a captcha to their checkout to try to defeat bots. Still at launch time this morning I checked and from one refresh to another seconds later it went from not available to purchase yet, to being out of stock... Crazy. I did see 3 less desirable 3rd party brands/models available to add to cart at newegg for a couple minutes. All the top brands/models were out of stock before an add to cart button was seen. 3090 is a bit spendy for performance, still not sure I want one, but I wanted to monitor and see if anyone had learned anything yet...

 
Ya I read online that they restocked, but basically sold out instantly again.
 
Why can’t they release this sooner? I even cancelled my WoW account for this.

Ha ha. What the heck. They announced the order date and release date with plenty of lead time. You could always just subscribe to gamepass ultimate in the meantime and play some games on your PC, or use the game streaming service to play the gamepass xbox games on your PC / android devices

 
I went the 4K 120hrz tv sales are picking up with everyone getting a tv for it as well.
 
Boy seems like tons of people are winning Xbox series X from Taco Bell lately. Wish I had one here to try.
