Maybe, maybe not. While HoloLens can be used in gaming applications, that's not how Microsoft is focusing it right now. Also, it's still not a consumer product. It may get mentioned in the context of the Windows Mixed Reality platform as a whole.

Xbox One X. Then the eventual successor will be called X2: Xbox United.

On a more serious note, it will be called "Xbox One -something-". Microsoft has telegraphed this from day one by continually saying Scorpio is part of the "Xbox One family". Calling it anything else would confuse consumers as to what it is. Remember when the average person thought the Wii U was just an add on for the Wii? Same logic applies here. By calling it "Xbox One -something-" it immediately lets people know it plays the same games, supports the same hardware, etc. I think after Scorpio they may position to calling it just "Xbox" as their service and hardware models evolve with backward and forwards compatibility in mind.

Someone will likely recommend the NZXT S340. They even have a black version with red accents. I personally found it to be too cramped for me. It's not terrible, I just wasn't comfortable working in it. Unfortunately I don't have an alternative rec; I upgraded to something relatively expensive (Phanteks Entho Evolv ATX). But, I just wanted to point that out since the S340 is pretty popular. If you're doing the building and don't have a problem with that, it can usually be found on sale for around $50.

@spencer: Didn't expect such a quick turn around, awesome! I'll be sure to test it with the upcoming 5 hour long E3 podcasts, lol. As far as the Xbox version goes, seeing as apps are more locked down on there (as far as I know), my guess is that all temp app data is dumped as soon as the app closes, a game starts, the console shuts down, or something like that.

My two cents:

I wouldn't spend more than $150 on a mobo, unless what you picked has specific features you're looking for. People that have a bad experience are more likely to write a review for something, so as long as the mobo has generally positive reviews you should be good.

If you're willing to hunt for deals, 1070s can often be had for around $350 these days.

And as others have said, definitely need a bigger power supply. I would also get at least a Gold certified one because they're not much more, but that's just me.

@spencer: @forcen: I was starting to lose more and more data from my SSD and had no idea why. I knew Overwatch updates weren't THAT big. I finally figured out that this app was the culprit (it was over 30 gigs).

The slightly more user friendly way of clearing app data is by going to Settings -> Apps -> Giant Bomb -> Advanced Options -> Reset. You'll have to sign back in when you do this.

I would highly recommend pushing out some sort of update to notify current and future users of this problem until (if/when) a permanent solution can be found.

@hestilllives19: Ah, well that explains why I never saw them then. I feel like they didn't do a good job of communicating that then. They always make a big deal about Iron Banner on social media, but I don't remember ever seeing anything about Combined Arms.

Ensures that I pretty much never touch PVP. I'm a casual player and played solo the vast majority of the time. That being said, this isn't my first rodeo, and can hold my own most of the time in PVP. On good days with decent team mates I was usually at the top of the scoreboard. This is a death sentence to people like me. It means I'll almost always get matched with other random people, and against teams of four friends.

It also means I'm going to dislike the map design more probably. I remember from the beta the map on the moon with vehicles and stuff. That was dope. After launch there was never a single vehicle map in rotation, or made for DLC. For Bungie to seemingly abandon any vehicle combat in multiplayer is beyond disappointing.

The YouTube stream is blocked in the US, that may also be the case for Canada (would only seem fair).

The Swedish stream is not geoblocked: http://bit.ly/2pJiVRi
