Curious about BC performance for both Rock Band 4 and Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Anybody heard anything on those two?
Looks great, you can tell it's not X optimizes with some shimmering and texture streaming, however it looks and plays amazing. Haven't played the PC version though so I can't compare there.How does H5 look with the better texture filtering? Does it look as good as the PC version on highest settings?
Sucks the old controllers don't get that update until next year. Not sure if I'm going to switch to the new controller or continue with my Elite.
It already got a 4K patch with the One X. 👍
Sounds like the Series X is a better bet for you honestly. If you have these feelings already the Series S ain't for you tbh.Any thoughts on the S in here? I hadn't really considered getting either Xbox console, but now that I've pretty summarily decided to not build a new PC for at least another 2-3 years, I'm kind of tempted to grab an S tonight just as a gamepass/BC machine, as something complementary to my PS5. I have a pretty big OG Xbox library as that's the only system I had as a kid, and I'd love to play through some of those again.
My only hesitation is the 1080p concerns that have been aired in some reviews. IQ is something that does reaaaaally matter to me, for better or worse, and I'm worried that I'll end up just wanting to get an X in a year once exclusives running at native 4K start hitting. Also BC titles not running at max resolution would be a bummer potentially.
The Xbox file system is a custom format, it'll reformat your external drive if you try to connect it for storing games.
So i have been experiencing a number of issues with my series X today unfortunately, ranging from output signal loss (solved), graphical issues, sound issues etc. Still need to figure out why there are so many problems occurring but i don't have the time to do it now.
Probably not enough clearance at the top but there's nowhere else atm.
Awesome, but BF1 and 5 aren't on EA Play?
They are.
Ah my bad. The games in that screenshot aren't listed alphabetically.
One of the biggest things I noticed immediately was the improved controller latency,. Playing Halo 5, I felt there was greater response on the controller where everything had a snappier feel to it. I'm sure I'll have my mind blown when I get to play some X optimized games, but it's funny that's the first thing I noticed.

Tried my Elite Controller and yeah, that thing is getting shelved until the update. I don't feel nearly as fast as I do with this new controller. There feels like its a smidge of smudge on the sticks, if that makes sense. It's weird playing with a regular controller again though, the plastic feels so cheap by comparison to the Elite.
I can't find Jedi Fallen Order anywhere...
So what's the strategy to prep for this? Transfer games I want to an external, then do the Series X set-up and then transfer those games from the external to the Series X?
That's what I did. But there are still a lot of patches to downloadSo what's the strategy to prep for this? Transfer games I want to an external, then do the Series X set-up and then transfer those games from the external to the Series X?
I laid my one x to rest tonight by playing some THPS1&2. Goodnight sweet prince.....you served me well.
A new generation starts tomorrow :)
The sizes of the series X updates are nearly as big as the games themselves from my experience today so far. If I had known that before spending 1hr plus copying all my games over I wouldn't have bothered and just downloaded them straight from the store instead.
Sea of thieves is the only game in my experience so far that did not need an update that was basically the full game size.
I thought I saw somewhere that it was 4K now but I don't know.The XSX UI is still 1080p? I read they'll update it at launch.
Probably not enough clearance at the top but there's nowhere else atm.
I hope it works well with the Dead Space games. I only need a little excuse to dive back into them.So happy to see all the EA Play stuff show up. I've got loads more BC stuff to test with HDR now!
They're on my list too. Same with the Crysis games, Alice: Madness Returns (I ADOOOOOORE that game) and some others.I hope it works well with the Dead Space games. I only need a little excuse to dive back into them.
I've been wanting to replay them for a while now, but didn't want to dig out my PS3. I'm super hyped to be able to play those bad boys on the Series X!I hope it works well with the Dead Space games. I only need a little excuse to dive back into them.
This thought never occurred to me until now. Woah.I hope it works well with the Dead Space games. I only need a little excuse to dive back into them.
