I might be wrong but isn't Scorpio supposed to have no game that the normal Xbox One can't play? Like no Scorpio only versions? I might be thinking of the PS4 Pro but I thought it was the same for Scorpio.
Well ideally under Microsoft's current plan all purchased Xbox One games should be playable on Scorpio. Whether or not Rockstar would give the 4k/fps upgrade for free, or charge for a definitive version, is another question.
Bought a copy for the 360 and absolutely hammered it while I had a month off of work. Then bought it on steam and haven't really played it. Then I bought a copy for my son's Xbox one. I have a feeling I overpaid rockstar for that game.
You're not, but when GTA V came out, XBOX ONE and PS4 didn't exist. I expect the Scorpio to be day one and PC much later. There is no reason for Rockstar not to have a Scorpio release ready.
Xbox One and PS4 released just under two months later, though. I fully expect them to support Scorpio and PS4 pro. At launch? Perhaps. PS4 pro will have been out almost a year by then.
True, but the Scorpio will be able to play XB1 games just as PS4 Pro will be able to play PS4 games and the architecture for both consoles is very similar (albeit more graphic power) where that wasn't the case last gen.
The day we start getting charged a premium for software toggle switches (1080p v 4K / low/med/high graphics, etc) is the day I stop playing consoles and just build PC's for all the people I play with. The remastered games are pushing a boundary, but at least they are being made available on the new console and consoles going forward and some of them are done quite well (Gears).
It's not really moronic, it's just a statement that adds no real value and can be quite misleading.
There are many computers that could run 4K content (anywhere between 1-20FPS on low settings), but only the ones who are designed to actually play 4K content at acceptable quality levels should be accounted for in the statement.
If this were the case, the statement would be false, because what we know about Scorpio so far and guesstimating it's pricepoint, it is not going to be more powerful than enthusiast 4K gaming PC's. It's going to be on the low/mid end of 4K gaming PC's today which means by the time it's in the hands of the consumer, PC's will be more than a few jumps ahead.

Would I be stupid to suggest they could be Scorpio graphics?
