In other Xbox news, Gamespot reported that Xbox head Phil Spencer said during the Brasil Game Show last week that the upcoming Xbox One X may not be for everyone. He explained that the console that is tagged as "the most powerful ever" will cater to a select type of gamers who are after "the very best experience."
"Whether you're on a 1080p TV or a 4K TV, you're going to have a great experience. But it's not for everybody," said Spencer. "I've played games in true 4K with HDR, and they look fantastic. But it doesn't mean everybody has to do that. So we're giving gamers a choice," he added.
