    More reason to pick up a One S for new and current users, while the Slim is a step back for some (no optical port) and a minor upgrade at best for others (size, g-band wifi support) and is releasing not too soon before the Pro. Sales comparison is kinda apples to oranges in context.

    Final image, but after someone said 'ENHANCE!' Blurriness was expected because it's cameras have a minimum optimal range to maintain focus.

    I haven't yet, but hope it does well. Would make for a good co-op LAN game. Watched some streams earlier, some first time players... seeing and then promptly getting owned by the wildlife was hilarious.

    Just an OK month at best, I like tinkering w/ the MX v ATV games but the latest ones haven't been as good IIRC. Already own the baseball game, it's decent fun.

    MS seems to be doing a thing w/ releases (Forza and Gears so far that I've seen) where they give you a $10 GC code for ordering from the MS store, they have physical and digital options. Buy Gears of War 4 for Xbox One Review - Microsoft Store

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Scoffed at that idea for a while too myself. Then I ran a couple of seasons with my friends and had a blast. I'm done now though, not sure what the could do to make me want to play. Ready for the next game.

    Think they made it really apparent the diminishing returns all this power falls into pushing so many more pixels. Scorpio won't be much better, but it will be a nice upgrade over the One S, just the next iteration, and then we'll get another in a few years. PS Pro feels like an incomplete...
