But this other number kept popping up and we thought about almost just skipping all the way to 399 as that seemed to be the magic number flying around since our show last week. - Rumor has it…. If you have 399 Euros in your pocket you might be able to exchange that for a Project Scorpio (Or about $430 US dollars) A listing for Microsoft’s Project Scorpio has been spotted on the Spanish Xtralife.es online store (if this is confirmed, i will be very happy)

Who saw this coming? Digital games sales are dominating the US games market, pushing boxed games towards an increasingly niche audience. digital accounts for 74 percent of all sales.  A: OFR & EVERYONE else buying and playing games did!
