Alanah Pearce: Xbox Series X gameplay demo & speed test

So titles that are not supposed to work until they provide a firmware update are crashing? Why people would discuss such a thing is puzzling.
The reason why Gears is not working is because they are providing an actual update. MCC could be one of the games that will take advantage of the back compat magic. Some of the games they are not supporting with these previews is because they have bigger plans.

I can't speak for the console version but the PC one has been great.
Almost the entire Xbox One system for running games is virtualised. The software has no real idea of what hardware it's running on anyway.
So the Xbox One is already being "emulated" by the Xbox One OS.
So moving across to different hardware is relatively painless as the Series X runs in the same way. The QA system is to flag and correct for any games that have done anything weird.
Each game as it's own compatibility profile, so so specific tweaks and optimisations can be applied if needed.

Yeah, OP still seems very concerned about something instead of just posting the video and let people actually take in the video unbiased. Because if you watch the video and get "XBOX BC has problems and crashes" then I don't know what to tell you.
Here is an idea OP.
Just delete the bold part since you misunderstanding all of what you said and let people judge by themselves.
Yeah, digital foundry demonstrated this by running Assassin's Creed Unity on Series X.
I reported the OP, there's nothing of substance to actually discuss here when you get past the poorly worded OP. Won't lead to worthwhile discussion
I have to imagine that if Gears, Halo, and Forza are all not yet compatible it's because MS is saving those for later in the PR cycle. At least two of those should be their big BC showpieces.
So if I have a game on quick resume and it gets an update it just crashes? Would make me kinda paranoid.
We still don't know if you quick resume after the update, she hasn't showed it.
Yeah, I wish more people would mention this, though, as I feel that many people think that they're legitimately just not compatible when it's probably more likely that Microsoft just doesn't want people to think that the "enhancements" are limited to how they work without their proper enhancement patches.
So basically this thread could have just be post on the other thread because its premise went away rather fast.
I think it would be safe to assume that what is essentially the RAM dump- will not work if the games executable /package has been changed by a patch.
Whatever it will be, it'll be at least few times faster than current gen cold booting.
Backwards compatibility is a complicated thing. I have no doubt PS4 BC on PS5 will have some quirks to it just like Xbox BC does.
I guess so, then that's quite annoying if it happens and you haven't saved from a quick resume, not that I think I wouldn't save before changing games or shutting of the console anyway because of habit alone and not enough trust in the tech.
I'd be curious to know if she declined the update she'd be able to quick resume if she tried again. State of Decay 2 is an always online game though, right?
The don't have problems. All games with the exception of Kinect games will work. The preview program is artificially limited in scope and as someone in here said they get hundred more games each week. Unless you think the MS BC team can test hundreds of games each week, than there is no technical issue to this.
.
Of course and yes it's native iirc. Unlike 360 and OG, those are emulated.
What? Who are you talking to and why not watch the video before posting?
At the moment thankfully but every time they add a title its a mess. I hope that crossplay patch comes soon because it sucks its impossible to find competitive matches.
As someone who hasn't seen every bit of Quick Resume coverage, I was surprised that it keeps them in the Quick Resume state after a full shutdown. For some reason I assumed you had to keep the console in a Suspend state and that it would dump the memory after a shutdown. Very cool to know that isn't the case!
Yes, I didn't see anything that indicate xb1 games on Xsx will be worse than on current gen in any way.
In the preview program of the journalist and influencers they need to be. I don't think this will be the case once November 10 hits.
Due to the inaccurate OP & misleading information, this thread has been locked. Someone else can make a new thread on the video with the correct information presented.
