No idea, I was just surprised at the difference.
It's a patch to the BC game.
It's the same as when they released a patch for Jedi Fallen Order.
It's not a PS5 native version, so still have constraint of comparing it from PS4Pro to Xbox One X.
 
OMG - thank you for posting this, I was wondering why Xbox kept trying to tell me my TV didn't do HDR10. I had the same thing with Auto checked instead of HDMI 2.0 my TV. Now Xbox tells me it DOES do HDR10.
No problem!

Let me guess, is it a TCL?

Is there an ESO official thread? I tried searching but didn’t see one, totally possible I missed it.

all the other threads were wicked old and I didn’t want to necrobump, this thread seems as good as any to ask since I play on Xbox

I don't get why BC games get put down just because they are "BC games". Now that there are not many new games to play for a while, most games people play are either BC or cross-gen games, anyway. If Xbox can upgrade them to be better (improved graphics/resolution, auto-HDR etc), it's just a plus.

On PC there are no "backwards compatible" games - just games, as people still keep playing their libraries. Old game - new game, who cares, as long as it is fun. I think this is one of the message Microsoft tries to get through (no more generations): every game is valuable, not just new games.

Because Xbox consistently wins in upgraded games. It's the same reason all the talk about the power of the SSD has disappeared since launch.

Hell, go look at the early backwards compatibility threads, where people were talking about Xbox loading times compared to PS5. "Just wait until launch - PS5 will load in half the time as Xbox." That was a week before launch. Now? Nothing.

Instead, the most important battle in the latest console war is two or three frames dropped in 1 per cent of the game. Nothing else matters.

Cold wars new patch has destroyed the series x performance in zombies.
Well to be honest. Even the ps5 is getting worse with the new updates. Now my ps5 can’t maintain 60 FPS in nuke town when I aim down sight with a thermal and some actions on the screen like smoke etc )

Me, my wife, and my brother played the new zombies map last night and performance seemed the same as before the patch? Didn't really notice any major issues... that being said, sometimes when i bounce around games a bit and i load Cold War in any mode I get really muddy textures and laggy weird controls. Totally closing out the game and doing a hard reset on the console seems to fix it though. Not sure why this happens but it is definitely annoying.

One clown was saying that PS5 would load PS4 games in one second🤣🤣

Playing around with Retroarch and my monitor produced some great results. I really do love this Xbox for many reasons.

Anyone tried falconeer? I had a good blast on it last night, its a lovely little shooter reminded me of Crimson Skies a bit. Its pretty impressive for such a small team, though the world does need a bit more filling out.
Quick resume helping me again last night, I only get a few hours to play so flicking between falconeer, medium and cyberpunk is brilliant.

I bought it when it launched and played for a few hours. Really liked it, but the controls took some time to get used to. Didn't they release a patch later that tightened up the controls?

"Cult of the new", "FOMO"...all that nonsense. For a site that considers itself home of the hardcore gamers, you would have thought that BC would be a blessing rather than a curse. Guess these Serious Gamers aren't that serious about being able to play, discover and enjoy older games that they may have missed out on first time round.
FFS, I've been trying to finish Rocket Ranger since 1988....
 
wait what, puyo 2 is on gold?

First game was stupid hard, but if you like tetris and are interested in puyo its a really solid game, will download

I watched her play and I'm gonna stick to traditional OG Tetris mode @#$% that🙉, other ish I'm not going to bother..but the games deff got that Japanese cuteness .

Tetris Effect is still GOAT tho, from level design to 🔥 soundtrack.

This Sounds more like What White Liberal Jews Would say, I Support Only Conservative Jews for Jesus Christ And He needs to hear that he is Being Led Astray by The Devil at the Liberal Public Schools like what I say or Not but in Your Hearts Of Hearts (YOU KNOW!) WWE Paul Hey Man Scream, I'm Telling People like him The Truth to Drop your Xbox, it's Bad for Ya just like George Carlin Said in his Comedy Liberal Republicans or Biased Democrats I have talked to are the only fools who I have seen to Glorify a Gaming Console above Jesus Christ in The Holy Bible The Worship of Computers is What The Mark Of The Beast is and Means I don't believe in the comments here that support this Antichrist Gaming Console, I Don't Care Not Only his opinion but those who Support Xbox Do Not Speak for My Fanship of Playstation or America, Xbox Supporters hate America You Would Think Democrats would Support Playstation being they Always Got there Nose Overseas for Emeny Countries like China who both Playstation and Xbox are made and assembled in I Conclude The Console Wars to The Battle of Armageddon, The Last War of Man And The Battle Of Good and Evil The Last War in Heaven, Xbox Supporters For Evil The Mark of The Beast and Playstation Good Supporters of The Light Of Jesus Christ, His 2ND Coming The Mark Of GOD IN HEAVEN Revelations 21:4 For My Reasons, I Will NEVER Support Any Generation Who Sides With Satan and his Unholy Companies in Gaming Besides I Will Not Take The opinion of Generation Z Who Ate Tide Pods, ALL CREDITABILITY IS GONE PAL!!!

Not sure about the controls, I found them pretty decent really. The only negative for me is a lack of enemies really.
 
Tried GTA V on my SX last night , first time i have played it in years. I have to say, despite being disappointed in Rockstar for the lack of and variety of , new releases in recent times, they are the best in open world games IMO.

I don’t even go near the online side of things, just roaming around the world, messing about, being chased by cops, all the little details and dialogue from pedestrians. Technically amazing for its time. Oh and the pause menu/map music is still cool as hell.
 
The "Control Photo Mode" thread is priceless. Did you know that XSX can only perform when paused? It also can't do particle effects. You can learn a lot about Xbox from Sony fans, all these Xbox shills in this thread have been hiding these things from me.
Yeah, it’s really something else isn’t it? Popped into the ”next gen spec” thread this morning. Goodness, that’s a full fledged PS support group now. The gyrations those folk go through to try and disprove that Xbox have possibly built a better console is just incredible. I fear for these folks sanity if the Series X eventually outperforms the PS5 quite handily.

I was playing Sea of Thieves yesterday - had it in 120fps mode for this particular session, though I probably do 4K 60 more often - and, for the very first time I thought I could hear some fan noise coming from my Series X which is tucked behind the corner of my LG CX. Nothing too offensive, but definitely some low level whooshing sounds. I got up and approached the console and put my ear close to the perforated top vent. Nothing. Then I realized the sound was coming from our refrigerator. Crisis averted! Series X (and Series S from what I’ve heard) are truly silent marvels of gaming engineering.
