If you're an Xbox gamer, chances are you're ready to place your Xbox One pre-order today. They way in which Xbox fans can benefit from this price cutoff is by trading in their older Xbox One when they made a decision to pre-order the new console. Keep in mind this is purely speculative and of the imagination of the author, though not completely out of the question. And although we revealed Project Scorpio as Xbox One X at E3 2017 earlier this year, the code-name will live on in the Scorpio Engine that powers the console, as well as in this limited edition console.

Microsoft has launched a special edition of the Xbox One S Minecraft Edition Bundle for avid Minecraft players and collectors.

However, it's becoming clear that the Xbox One X is nearly guaranteed to be a failure of some magnitude. Look into these upgrades, then decide if it's really worth spending $499 to get Microsoft's latest Xbox console.

He lived the American dream
Writer-actor Marlon Wayans, Will & Grace's Sean Hayes and stand-up comedian Dane Cook referred to Lewis as a hero and mentor. Lewis, at right, joined late singer and actor Dean Martin to become a comic duo of worldwide fame early in their careers.

The Xbox One X is seemingly destined to fail, and Microsoft will have no one to blame but themselves when that happens. In fact, many third-party developers are already working on enhanced games which will help highlight Xbox One X's true hardware power.

Though it's not an entirely unexpected bit of news, Microsoft cleared up a little bit of potential confusion surrounding the vertical stand for the Xbox One X. The Xbox One X hype train has been derailed, Microsoft's exclusive programs - such as Game Pass and backward compatibility - are stagnant, and the company still struggles to secure exclusive games of note. However, the best thing about this deal is that fans aren't forced to turn their older console as soon as they type in the pre-orders. Therefore, turning it in for a $200 discount doesn't sound that bad.
