For a year now, Microsoft has been teasing Project Scorpio, their upgraded console. Well thankfully today we finally got all the details, starting with a name. Officially called the Xbox One X, the new console will be their smallest to date. It packs an 8-core Custom AMD CPU, clocked at 2.3GHz, 12GB of graphic memory, and a 6 teraflop GPU to render 4K environments. It will be hitting living rooms on November 7th, priced at $499. Personally, Xbox One X sounds worse than Scorpio, but it does clear up the “is this a new console, or isn’t it?” question.
