Have any of you guys heard when Disco Elysium is finally dropping on consoles? I thought the developers said this year but they've been really quiet. My PC can run it easily but I want to play it sitting on my couch with a controller. Maybe they will release it for the XSX next year. It would be wild if it drops on Game Pass day one.

That looks so much better. Again, more in line with the stuff we saw previously.

I have no idea what’s going on with this game, or if it’s just down to certain scenes with tons of dust and dirt flying around, choking YouTube’s bitrate. It’s a bit of a two-face.

I certainly hope it looks like this. Either way, the game looks like a lot of fun, and unique, but looking this good would be a substantial addition to the enjoyment.

I also have to say, what’s going on with Gears 5 on Series X is super impressive and unexpected.

I’m so glad I just happened to accidentally hold off of playing the game.

As has been discussed before, the shot on XSX is on PC Ultra in terms of it's reflections, so it is a lower setting than the Insane Shot. The Floor shouldn't be that shiny, and the diffuse nature of the PC shot's floor is much more realistic and demanding. PCs Insane settings just aren't manageable at 4k/60.

Best MP FPS title of this gen is now on Game Pass:

I'm a little rusty but if anyone is looking to get into Siege give me a shout. One of the best MP shooters of all time-up there with the greats.

That purely depends on the floor... They deliberately changed the effect for the XSX version so that it's more like shiny marmer

I kind of wonder if Forza Horizon 4 will be taking a similar jump. Previously, I just assumed it would hit 60 FPS and 4K (quite the jump itself), but it’d be awesome to see that game take a similar leap.

So is Modern Warfare getting an upgrade patch or is that the Xbox One X version at full resolution and framerate?

CoD MW on XsX, 4k/60 with HDR

Looks great but didnt the guy say it was xbox one x with some tv settings he was playing ?
Anyway hopefully series x improves multiplayer framerate. Some maps like picadilly screen tearing was horrible on my xbox one x

His older stuff is One X, this is his first on Series X (see the comments)

It looks incredible IMO, best example of auto-HDR improving a game we've seen yet

I may be wrong but on the video he uploaded did he play series x or one x?
Now what do you mean auto-HDR ? Didnt one x had already HDR?

Looking for some advice from the Xbox one vets. Do the 360/original games go on sale and if so how often? Just wondering if it's worth waiting for the legacy games I want to go on sale or buy at full price, since I'm all digital.

Are there some titles that have never gone on sale?

this game already has HDR on xbox one, so "auto-HDR" wont be used here
 
As the days go by and excitement builds I’m increasingly irritated with myself I didn’t have my act together to try and snag a pre-order. A few months ago I was ok with perhaps picking up an XSX sometime in the new year. But basically since pre-orders went out Microsoft has been killing it with their messaging (despite no launch AAA tent pole game, which makes their marketing effort even MORE amazing) and the prospect of not having one around launch REALLY hurts.

I just recently got a new LG Oled and have had my mind blown with Xbox One X games running on it. I mean....Forza Horizon 4...unpatched and without the extra grunt of the Series X has basically exploded my eyeballs with the visuals. My wife is even transfixed watching me play it. Not being able to play this, and other things on the Series X (assuming I can’t get my hands on one) is going to painful. At this point, despite the pandemic, I would consider lining up for one at launch. This is something I would basically NEVER do, even without an ongoing pandemic....so, there’s an indicator of my desperation to get one.


Great thread BTW....and I’m a newb.

I honestly didn't know so I decided to check and thank you for asking. I just got the DLC for FO:NV which I've been playing lately but I never bought the DLC for it. I got all 3 for $7.50!

So yes, apparently Xbox 360 games do go on sale.

Anyone else super curious to see if the Metal Gear HD collection works with Auto HDR? I imagine the orange and blues of Metal Gear Solid 2 would be interesting to see, and if it improves upon the clarity of Snake Eater, that'd be even better.
Other games I'm very curious to see with potential Auto HDR would be Ninja Gaiden Splinter Cell.

Seems like i saw someone from the Dirt dev team on Twitter saying they were excited and that the footage we've seen at this point was already an old build and major improvements had been made.

Are there any impressions of Skyrim running on Xbox Series X? Wondering how much the load times are cut down by.

I would have to imagine pretty quick. On an eternal SSD on One X were pretty crazy. Under 10 seconds to load from a saved game and transitions to new areas was about 5-6 seconds.

So wait, if I get an external SSD to go along with my current Xbox One X load times will be decreased significantly?

For sure.


Keep in mind not all SSD's are the same. A cheap SSD will not give you as great of results but you also dont need the lastest and greatest because you will be limited by the USB 3.1 speeds. You will want a good external case from a good brand. But an external SSD can help quite a bit .

Can you give a me a couple of suggestions for SSDs to use with Xbox One X?

Edit: Just clicked your link for OWC mercury , So for $65 I can get a 120gig ssd . Perfect. I would just use it for Skyrim.
