Drives me nuts that I can not track my shipment, that never happened before with Amazon.
Are you the guy with the AMZL US tracking number?
Are you not able to see the tracking updates if you go through your orders and "track package" on amazon's site?
That's how I had to follow updates in the past when I had stuff delivered from them.

Amazon have now updated their tracking to say it's expected between today and Thursday, but it's at the carrier facility so fingers crossed

Does that gray gradient really stand out like it does in your picture on the Scorpio edition? Mine arrives later today, but seeing this makes me think I might should have just got the standard edition.

I guess i can try the trial when i get my X. I thought you needed like Atmos branded headphones or something, if not cool to see i can use that feature too.
Nope no need for Atmos branded, it's universal.

I'm gonna check it out, thanks. Is the sound quality any good?

I can't tell you personally as they're going to be delivered today, but after researching for the past few days, they seem to be the most recommended gaming headset for X1+PS4. If you're only going to use on the X1 then I believe that there's a model called the Cloud X, that is adapted for the X1 (no usb soundcard, but inline controls).

Hey UK Amazon buyers don't hold your breath for delivery today.

Amazon chat confirmed a delay and they could not tell me when it would be dispatched or delivered.

Such a joke. They did this with my PS4 Pro also.

4 different amazon reps this morning swore blind it's coming today. I don't believe a word of it.

In the display settings, do I want to allow YCC 4:2:2? IIRC my PS4 Pro automatically defaulted to 4:2:2 when displaying HDR but for some reason the checkbox wasn't checked off in the Xbox settings. Allow HDR is checked though.

Yeah, not holding my breath. Was going to be a Christmas present but was excited for the delivery hype anyway.

They've never let me down in the past with my PS4 and PS4 Pro. If anything they'll give compensation for the delay.

Seems like the people who were most keen and ordered as soon as it went live are missing out. It's strange though as they kept on letting you pre-order the scorpio edition at various intervals between august and now.

Yeah it's lies to keep you quiet.

They lied to me about multiple delays with my PS4 Pro.

After 3 days of just not turning up I cancelled got a refund and got my Pro from TESCO.

I have a reservation for a regular version at Argos. If amazon haven't shipped by the time I go home I'm cancelling and giving Argos my money

My Sony 43 X8088D says it supports HDR-10...Xbox says differently.

No HDR Goodness for me!

My Xbox One X running the Gears of War 4 Title Screen. This thing is loud and on a title screen????

I will probably end up taking this thing back. I can hear it when I am playing online in Gears of War.

I honestly couldn't hear anything until i maxed the audio and you got right next to it, although that's probably just the video, same thing happens when i show a friend of mine my ps4

So I had to have an emergency surgery this week and was worried that I wouldn't be able to get this beast close to release. My wife said that she could run and grab it at launch this evening to give me something to mess around with since I am laid up for a couple of weeks at least... And then a freaking blizzard hit. It is snowing like crazy and the roads are all iced over and I don't want her to risk her life just to pick up my system. Ah well. I have it preordered and paid off other than the 150 for my S trade-in. I will eventually have my Scorpio - just not tonight like I hoped. (Sorry about the sob story. It's nice to be caught up in everyone else's excitement. Just a bit jealous.)

I feel your pain. Ten years ago I was in an accident and broke my left arm in five places (ouch) -couldn't play a game on my consoles for 6 months due to the recovery and nerve damage. A nightmare. Although, I did become a dab hand at playing WoW just with the mouse!

Fingers crossed the blizzard lifts soon.

I don't think that this will happen in other countries,
but maybe worth mentioning that as I was checking out my scorpio preorders, chatting with the person responsible for gaming in what is one of the largest retail chains over here, I was told that X won't probably hit shelf space until probably after x-mas, since much demand and not much allocation.
