My scorpio edition on amazon just got updated to "Arriving Tuesday". If I am not mistaken that is release day, so I am good to go!
Anyone interested in taking my Scorpio edition pre-order from Best Buy in Ft Lauderdale? After the lack of significant PUBG news I'd rather get the one with the regular design than the scorpio edition down the road sometime. Else I'm just gonna cancel it
The latter has a lot going on in life with a newborn at home who is calling the shots. I suspect others will get theirs before Tuesday
So the Taco Bell one X comes with Gears 4 as well? Nice. Can't wait for tomorrow, though I only have a shitty 23" 1080p tv at the moment.
You guys realize whats going on, Amazon is probably taking a shit ton of cancellations from scalpers unable to ship on release day. Also, others are just ordering the standard edition. I don't think Amazon is fixing anything, I still think its a lottery. I have no new information on my scorpio shipping.
I'm so hyped for Tuesday. Have lots of games ready to go, or arriving Monday like AC: Origins and Shadow of War. Plus both Witcher 3 expansions to get through, and to finally finish my GoW4 play through.
Got that sweet TCL 4k tv 2 weeks ago, so I'm all set!

I'm not sure what more you want. I wish I could feed the hype beast more. Do you want a spread with a SNES, n64, Dreamcast, Ps2, ps3, PS4, Xbox 360, Wii, Wii U, Xbox One F and Xbox One X? I can try to find the Gameboy and several DS if it helps.
It's quiet. The graphics and stability are improved. The dashboard feels possibly more snappy. The only games I have that are enhanced are Gears, Killer Instinct, Quantum Break and Titanfall 2. Most of the patches are not up yet, and I haven't installed Forza 7.
Major has shared the tacked on boot sequence. The Taco Bell letter says Gears game code, even though that wasn't advertised. Redeeming shows an ops pack, I've contacted TB just in case.
I'm sorry I don't have more to share right now.
That is about it. I am sure those guys have other things going, but I know being on a gaming board we are use to getting a lot more from people that get games, systems earlier. Hopefully more will be shared soon.
there's a guy on r/xboxone basically saying there's no need to panic, they'll probably charge/ship friday morning from your local MS depot and arrive launch day with no hassle. just log off refreshing your email inbox cause we'll be fiiiine
No, not yet. I'm not worried though. Got my Switch on launch day from them. There are multiple Best Buys in my area.
Cool. I have the Scorpio through them so I hope it arrives the day of release
I'm sticking with the Microsoft store Scorpio edition. Only thing I dislike about that is Microsoft tends to not have order updates whatsoever, until the tracking number has been issued for the shipment.
yes even if I get a release day update to my scorpio edition from Amazon, I believe I will cancel and trust Best Buy this time. it shows November 7th delivery .
Have you ordered from them before? I too bought my Scorpio edition on there, people on the xbox subreddit are saying their aren't until the 7th.
Haha, I did this yesterday too. Watched a few unboxing videos (painful experience) and decided I'd much prefer the more restrained look. Normally wouldn't care but I currently have it setup right on my desk.
Any recommendations on external hard drives to pick up? Figure 2TB will probably suffice.
Neither am I. I bet around Friday, there will be something.

Yea. I've been checking my MS account almost daily and no updates whatsoever.
Had a chat with them around a week back and was assured it'll be delivered release day. Here's hoping.
They've never disappointed me in the past and always were quick.
No offense but you're about 3 pages and 8 hours late :P
Went to my local GameStop to see about the Xbox One S trade-in deal (150 USD) because the offer wasn't showing on my app (sid coupon would be sent by today). Apparently, stores are being sent a code in lieu of this to make sure the offer is still good.
Anyone else here trading in their old hardware at GameStop?

What's the difference with the Project Scorpio edition vs the normal one?
NVM- I looked it up. All it does is say "Project Scorpio" on the console and controller which doesn't do anything for me.

The Taco Bell code is now showing up as the Full Game, just must have flipped a switch and changed it from the Ops Pack. Sweet.
I've ordered 1 or two games in the past. They usually send a shipping email the day before release, of which the packages have arrived the next day. I just don't care for the fact there seems to be no preparing status. It just moves from pre-order to shipped suddenly. So, there's really no way to know if your order is progressing normally or being prepared for shipment.
I was actually thinking this. There's one coming here next week and i hope its not filled with more broken promises.
Every game I've preordered from them has been delivered on launch day. I can't imagine they'll fuck this one up.
