Will you be buying the Xbox 1 TB storage expansion card optimized for next gen games for $220.00 or are you fine with buying an external hard drive for much cheaper that will have a lot more space?

i'm not buying anything, unlike some faggots that can't organize their own video games, when i finish playing a game, i uninstall it and install another one to play.

I have no plans to buy anything because 800GB is more than enough for me, but if I had to choose I would opt for a NVME SSD via USB 3.1 since the difference to the 1TB expansion card is barely noticeable in load times.

Why rush out to get memory expansion for either system right away? Everyone will be fine for at least a year and that gives the other manufacturers time to get their solutions out which will cause price wars. Waiting can only be good for you in this instance.

has it been revealed how big the games will be? i don't place CoD but I know a lot people complain it takes up like 150+ gigs on current gen

That's literally only CoD and people keep using it because it's the worst example. Meanwhile Watch Dogs Legion is only 45GB.

I bought this to store games when im not playing them

$220 is an okay price for a 1TB SSD.

This is the smart play. SeX games will only run from the internal or expansion card, right? As long as the transfer times between internal and external USB are decent

Microsoft offered convenience but Sony went with a saner longer-term option where the m.2 can be repurposed to upgraded without being a straight sunk cost.
I doubt it'd happen but I'd like to see MS release a dongle to use standard m.2 drives. Or third parties like in the days of PSP micro sd adapters.

uh no

Yeah you can store next gen games on an HDD just not play them.

I'm just gonna buy 2 XSS.

are you a time traveler from 2007?

ill use the built-in storage and ill just delete games as needed

$100 is an ok price for a wifi adapter

Its 4.0 and hot swappable

SeX games can only run via the Internal.
BC games can run form internal and external.

I have a 4x4 nvme which is faster than what's in the console and it cost less. Besides the whole thing is a meme anyway, a sata ssd would have been more than sufficient and allowed you to have way more storage for the price

no I usually install only one game, play it and then uninstall, I have 1Gbit internet anyway

it's 150+gigs because current gen uses hard drives so assets need to be copied multiple times to use pre-fetching and make loading slower, with games designed around the new SSD consoles there will be no need for extra copies of the same asset since they can be compressed and pre-fetched as virtual ram in the ssd

I dont play many games per year, im too busy.

1tb on the Xbox SeX is enough for me.

a really bold move of you to assume I'll be getting a pile of shit in the first place lol

I don't get why people still harp over this. PS5 is barely any better. Yes you can use third party M.2 SSDs but in the fine print it only allows those that meet their requirements to work which are a small pool of expensive ones.

the ps5 one is understandable as the requirement is to meet the minimum spec instead of having to do with proprietary shit

though you are right in that in 2020 the storage expansion will be expensive on both devices

Yes?
Retard.

finally, devs can move on to uncompressed 4k video!

what's stopping me from opening up the box and replacing the internal drive like always

Hopefully they allow other companies to make expansion cards to create competition with seagate.

How are you going to install the OS?

SeX internal SSD is the same format as the expansion card. It's not M.2 by the looks of it.

Sorta depends. There's only like 6 games I need installed at all times and those are maybe 500 gigs at best. I can download a game finish it and just delete it to make space for new ones. I'll wait till they go on sale or something.

You create a disk image of the original disk and install it on the new disk if you want to keep everything as it was.
Usually the OS is provided as a download deep in the support section of the website if you want to do a fresh install.

How jewish. I sure hope people are smart enough to wait for adapters.

I'll get one in a year when they're $80

based

Flight Sim was over 140 on my PC. RDR2 was over 100. FFVII Remake was almost 90.

They are

The picture looks cool so yea probably

Eventually. But by the time I'll need one they'll have a 2 (or more) terabyte external SDD. Im gonna be big into playing old games for awhile and I'll put those on my external HDD when necessary.

Yes my edge lord - you can store the games on the regular external but I believe you must transfer to the built in drive to run them.

Flight Sim also has the entire world textured and modeled. At or under 100g isn't that bad. Cod being 200 is stupidly retarded for what you get

That's only for next gen games. BC don't need an SSD and can run off the external.

>Cod being 200 is stupidly retarded for what you get
Agreed.

>memory cards are fucking back

Both current Forza games are 91 GB a piece BEFORE you count the DLC, Halo MCC pretty fucking huge too.

>Microshaft creates memory cards for SSDs
>Samshit and crew start making them for SeX
>PC eventually adopts the design for optional use rather than M.2
>a brand new world of easy hot swappable drives is created

None of that. I'm fine with 1tb. I don't have any data caps and I don't need to have a gazillion games installed.
I currently have a 1tb xbonex and I hardly have 50% of the space full. I basically play 3-4 games at once at most

>Flight Sim also has the entire world textured and modeled.
No, it still pulls bing satellite textures and terrain data off the internet, and stores them on your computer. the initial 90 gb of game is JUST the UI, high detail airports, and the planes.

the fucking planes alone are like 20 gb.

i am okay with this because the volume of production will bring the price down over m.2

I'm just not.
I might get a PS5 next year but theres not a whole lot I want out for it and my brother is getting both next gen console anyway so I can just borrow his PS5 and play Demons Souls on it.
So I'm just going to stick to PC and portables from now on.
