My fiancé has been playing Skyrim and it loads so fast. Maybe it's just my eyes playing tricks, but It definitely seems to look a bit sharper than it did on the One X as well.

There is a mod that unlocks frame rate and the Series X/S run it at 60 FPS btw
It's designed to do both. The one side has nubs on it for when you lay it horizontally.
I posted this early. The speaker grill vent def gets a little toasty. If that's how it's supposed to be that's fine though.
Loving Jedi Fallen Order but I wish the 4k mode wasn't locked at 30fps. 60fps is so good but the 1080p just looks so bad.
Thanks for confirming. Yeah, I'm fine with it and so far I've yet to see any issues.
I'm placing the S on my desktop as a secondary console among some book stands, so will try to give the little box more space to breathe the heat.
it's been fine here, would of liked the option to remove the base, but it's not had any issues
Yeah I was surprised too but when I checked every other part of the system it was room temp. Additionally the heat went away two mins after I shut down the xsx
I can't even tell it's there, especially if I curve it so I can't see it where I sit
Thanks for this info, I was considering starting over on the X if the framerate was consistent. I'm not surprised though, the fps is all over the place on PC too but with g-sync it looks smooth.
Should be good with VRR though, has anyone tried that?
I forgot to mention that pop-in doesn't appear to be improved. On planets without much floral cover, entire areas are blank. It seems pretty close to what it was before. I had three medium refineries and four nutrient processors running (outside in a grassy area, along with a small building and some other building elements like a base computer, storage, and a warp portal) and the slowdown was quite apparent. The next generation trailer must have been produced on PC.
Am I correct in still believing that you can't gain achievements with mods on?

I can't get Series X to turn on and off my TV. With the Xbox One it always worked via IR blaster. But Sx only had CEC, and tried on TCL 2018 Series 6.
It's probably worth saying again that the more heat the system outputs, the better it is at cooling, since heat should be outside and not inside the system :3
Probably on horizontal the S has a better time because of hot air going up. Give it some breathing room and that's all it needs

Is there no way to disable sound effects in dashboard? I swear I went through each setting options and didn't find a way to disable annoying sound effects in dashboard? I only found option to disable start up chime.
Suggestion for UI team, if possible UI should remaining last position when going back. For exa. in privacy settings, there are 2-3 columns. If you press 4th option in second column, change something, and go back using 'B', it always highlights first option in first column.

Completely normal for both of them to be emitting hot air. In fact that's a very good sign. You definitely want the heat being removed, rather than trapped inside the system, because the SoC will be generating some serious heat.
MS should outright declare they won't increase game prices this gen. Would be a huge win for them but guessing they are considering it which sucks if they haven't said anything yet.
It would be a good move for customers but honestly if MS wants to push game pass subs raising their game prices and leaving game pass priced as is would kinda be a win win for them.
I don't know why anyone would, but has anyone tried out Homefront; The Revolution on Series X? Even on One X it ran like ass. It could be an interesting test.
So I started to get the random turn off. But it seemed to be with cod. Then I noticed I had the old version. I guess the non xsx version does this. So if ur having problems check what version your on.

Why did they change the battery size from play and charge kit. I had one that now won't work.
Not sure where my eneloop went. I think the kids toys were using them.

The battery from my Energizer P&C kit fits, just not the battery lid (because there are obstacles where the lid clips).
I have synced the Series S and PC to the new controller and i could switch between platform without having to resync again, but suddenly it only keeps one platform in memory and can switch between platform without resync. Can i "restore" to default the controller or something to fix this?
They shrunk the whole controller slightly which I'm guessing is the cause.
Wait what? I didn't know I needed a new play and charge kit 😵
(My XSX has not delivered yet)
Final Fantasy 15, much like Jedi Fallen Order, is completely unplayable for me in non-60fps, its so horribly stuttery espcially when you move the camera around, it doesnt matter how crisper the image quality is, its so distracting you dont even notice the better image quality, you're too focused on the awful frame rate. And also like Fallen Order, it's buttery smooth in 60fps mode.
Seriously I don't know if this is a OLED thing or what, but its these two games specifically because I never had an issue with 30fps games before, hell I was always more of a console player than PC all my life, but goddamn.
Is 30fps more noticiable on OLED, are these 2 games just more jarring for whatever reason, what's going on?

So quick resume is broken, I've swapped from ass. creed Valhalla to streaming apps, and then back to the game, and it's a clean boot up to the menu. Has happened a few times. No other games running.
I didn't have this issue with xb1, so this is frustrating

Is there a list with Xbox one games that have either Dynamic Resolution Scalling, uncapped framerate, or 60 FPS performance modes?
I would like to get some more ideas to try out my new Series X until some proper next gen games start to come out.

Just fired up Gears 5 for the first time. Haven't played a Gears game since the OG, or maybe I did try Gears 2 I don't remember. But anyways, I went straight into multiplayer and was playing with recruits/people ranked close enough to my rank of 0.
That was so fun! I was in college when the OG Gears came out, I played that on Xbox Live until 3-4 in the morning every day. Playing Gears 5 multiplayer gave me vibes of those feelings and brought a lot of good memories back. Good times. I can definitely see myself sinking many hours into Gears again now.

Really? i need to look into this more. I would even go 'full bing' if it funded gamepass
The unreliable Quick Resume doesn't make me want to take advantage of it... I don't know if a game has used it or not; if I can't trust it to hold my progress I might as well just save and close the game
Makes sense, thanks
Now I wonder when i'll get the points for my XSX and controller purchases...
