I definitely think that we will get at least one blog post a week (also where the f is the Initiative hiding) but just assume it to be related to a major talking point so expect one week to be highlighting first party series x optimisations but not sure about the other weeks.

6 mondays left before launch.
1 week could be BC optimizations on patched games, 1 week new features in the UI (capture, share, streaming etc), 1 week showcasing actual new games coming out (likely the last week before launch) Not sure about the other 3, or 2 if they choose to forgo doing one the night before launch.

6 weeks left, zero new exclusive games announcement.

Anyone expecting a new “AAA Exclusive“ game announcement 6 weeks from launch is delusional.

I would like to see a new xbox game studio with a late 2021 target = 12 months from now.
We are in October and no XO event, nothing scheduled for december.

I misunderstood, I thought you were expecting it to be announced and launch on Nov 10.
TBH I expect The Game Awards to be the next time we see a big announcement from MS. (Though I would be pleasantly surprised if it happened sooner.)

Unironically a nice update for next Gen Halo 5 would be great. 120 FPS, and clean up all the sad stuff from last gen like half rate animations, low AF, and effects that render at lower resolutions.

xboxpope did some Series S designs. I like the Cyberpunk version...
The Series S|X consoles will be really easy to skin/wrap.

Though we have no hard numbers on allocations, Aaron Greenberg says pre-order demand is/was record breaking

Previous marketing blog posts were at 3pm (15:00) GMT, so I would expect the same now IF there is something. So in 45min

While true, he does say;
Like, of any pre-order they've ever done for any product.
So that includes Xbox One X, PS4 Pro and PS5 also.
Still really need to know allocations to say anything definitively, mind.

Guys just a big FYI... Make sure to check daily the Microsoft Rewards app online or on the Xbox. Just by browsing Bing, doing a couple of surveys or answering a few dumb questions you can get a lot of rewards points. Plus you can also get tons of points by playing Game Pass games and getting achievements.
A month of Game Pass Ultimate is 12,000 points which is a lot but by doing what I said daily you can get there or get close. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.

Something, something, no games. Amiright?
While educational and informative, I'm not sure if this is something "insiders" should have been hyping up on Twitter. This is how people get expectations too high and then backlash when it's not what they expect.

Then people should learn from it. Unfortunately, like a lot of that stuff, hiveminds form and anyone who questions anything usually receives bile in return. Not worth it.
I knew they would rely on ports of Tactics and Flight Simulator for launch period after Halo delay. I’m just glad The Falconeer is coming out.

MS continuing to put the console in folks hands is going to pay dividends. The Word of mouth from social media and influencers is going to be all Xbox by default. And they haven't even put up anything about enhanced games yet!

The Xbox Series X design looks far better in person, and it's seriously quiet too

They been talking about load time for current gen games but how about framrate are they better for games ?

If the original game targets a locked 30 FPS, the game won't improve to 60 FPS, but it will lock at 30 FPS, even if the original stuttered between 20 and 30. If the original game is unlocked, the game will run at a locked 60 FPS (99% of the time, at least).

Watch DFs video. Uncapped games are generally hitting solid 60fps.

Cool just wondering for game like fallout4 that have bad framerates in some areas.

If the game was targeting 30fps but couldn't sustain it, it will probably run locked 30fps on the XSX.

First batch of Series X arrived to reviewers in Australia and NZ the other day, first impressions are minds being blown over Quick Resume

German reviewers getting their hands on the XsX, this is a good one as he shows a lot of gameplay, including Sekiro at 4k/60fps.
He also measures the noise while playing Rise of the Tomb Raider at about 33db, so whisper quiet.
Mentions he hasn't had any heat issues and shows off elements of the UI that he probably shouldn't have, too.

Some people were asking about Series S gameplay
From the video, Watch Dogs Legion running at 1440p/60fps with RT

Library of games, brief glimpse of EA Play in the library menu, stuff like that. Nothing major but stuff I've seen others cut out.
