Hi everyone.

It's been a while since I last started a thread here.

Back in 24 Nov 2013, I shared the unboxing of the US Day One Edition of the Xbox One.

Almost 4 years on, Microsoft finally launched the latest Xbox One X here in Hong Kong on 7 Nov 2017. Most HK retailers are forcing customers to purchase at least 3 games to go with their day one units. Commercialism is just another label for greed, if you ask me. Anyway, here's my sharing of the unboxing of the limited Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition.

p/s: sorry for the delay, I've been traveling and only had the chance to post this weekend.

The back of the box.

Each Project Scorpio Edition has a unique number.

Let's start unboxing it.

Comes with standard freebies codes.

Comes with HDMI cables and one Project Scorpio Edition controller (more on that below).

The console has a nice 2-tier design, with the top sporting a greyish tone and the base a solid dark black. The unique Project Scorpio label replaces the standard Xbox One X lettering.

Attached Image

The other unique cosmetic feature of the Project Scorpio Edition is this dimple design on the console's body. I was a bit disappointed as I thought it would actually be a pimplish textured, but no it's just a coating design i.e. when you run your hands over it, it's just ordinarily smooth and not dimpled textured.

The console from a different angle.

There's a cute little Easter egg on the right side panel - the message says "Hello from Seattle - Xbox One X".

Attached Image Attached Image

The rear panel. There's a classy little Xbox label on the left rear end.

Attached Image Attached Image Attached Image Attached Image Attached Image

Now let's have a look at the special edition Project Scorpio controller. Besides the obvious green lettering, the A/B/X/Y buttons are also colourless and sport a classy black hue. Nice.

Well, that's about it. Hope you enjoyed the photos above. Until the next version .....

Nice. I want to buy but still too expansive. Please post a review here.

When will Microsoft officially support Xbox in Malaysia? It would be good for them and everyone.

Microsoft is never going to support Xbox officially here. For whatever reason, they still think Malaysian market is too small, yet they have no problem bringing it to Singapore. As much as I love the Xbox brand, there's no denying that Microsoft themselves are not doing all they can to expand the brand. We've gone through 3 generations of Xbox, and everytime, we get shafted by Microsoft. That doesn't stop us Xbox gamers from buying though.

What TV are you using? I have a Samsung KS7000, which is quite nice for HDR content. Too bad I don't have a 4K Bluray player or Xbox One X to test with. Apparently some One X enhanced titles even support HDR, like FFXV. I'm curious whether Xbox One X games with HDR look nicer than PC highest settings. Since FFXV will release on PC, I don't know whether I should double dip or not.
