This is the video I have been waiting for. A lot of great comparisons.
Thats not what i said though, specifically, theres no need to bog down this thread with talk about exclusive offerings or cancelled games, the topic is about how games run better and general improvements, which ofcourse means we speak about games showcase. Just avoid the business behind it.
Can't watch the video now :( (Will watch it later tonight) Is the bw limit only in place for the internal drive or also for external drives?
I agree, that's not what I came to read about, and that kind of stuff really ruined other sites. We don't need that kind of stuff here.
Stop it!
I just went to DF and nothing is posted yet. Have they not posted anything yet?
This is looking good! My ME: Andromeda experience seems to be more of an exception. Now I need 360 comparison.
True, but it sounds like load times with 4K assets on X1X are going to be longer than 1080p assets on X1S. I think the Gears Of War 4 campaign load was longer and I expect it will be that way when you have such huge assets to load in.
So true, I really like that there is some genuine excitement toward the X launch at this place :) Personally I can't wait to try this beast, everything in the living room is upgraded to 4K (except the projector), I'm really just waiting on the X to arrive now.
Wow at the original unpatched AC Unity having an uncapped framerate and hitting 60fps at points
Really love the attention to detail and the amount of games checked by Digital Foundry.
Load times are reduced for unpatched games, but as some stated, I guess it will be pretty much the same for unpatched Xbox One (S) vs. Patched Xbox One X in the end.
To be honest, I would loved a SSD instead of HDD in the Xbox One X, but in the end, I would have prefered a 2TB HDD model.
My internal drive is nearly full at this stage and I'm far from being able to install that many games at this point. A lot of titles received and will receive big updates and are already around 50-100 GB or more.
If you have a couple of games waiting, just go and order a 2-4 TB external drive right away, because you're going to need it.
I guess most people want to try out older titles or have another look at a patched game, so you need to extra space anyway.

Damn. Even better than I expected in some cases. God Halo 5 is going to look so good supersampling from 4k. I wish he had done a comparison on unpatched Rocket league though judging by the results in these other games it should be a rock solid 60fps on the 1X.
I understand this is a gaming enthousiast forum and I consider myself a gamer but I, for the moment, fail to see how I can justify dishing out 700$ (canadian prices and taxes included) to get the 1X. They call it a Mid-Gen upgrade that will play the same games. Will we have a Xbox 2 in 2 years that the new games will only be available on? I don't get the new model where the games are compatible with every current consoles. I mean, with previous console launches, I was interested to upgrade to play the New games only available on the new console. That made easy to justify the purchase. Even if I don't get to experience the new games in 4K and slightly faster load times (althought I dread those huge 4K downloads) I will still be able to enjoy the sames games cuz, in the end, it's the games that matter.
I don't know... I want the X1X and I have the money for it but it feels like a waste of cash because, in the end, it will be playing the same games...
Please ERA, knock some sense into me!

Many interesting things indeed. I'm pretty happy about the improvements.
Btw. what exactly is the reason that these games only get access to 3TFLOPS?
Is super sampling something that the hardware will do to all 4K patched games on a 1080p tv?
Is this a situation just like PS4 pro where people will be hoping for their games to get a 4K patch

Q1: Supersampling will happen for all games if >1080p, yes!
Q2: Similar, yes. But you can find already a list what games get a special treatment here: https://www.xbox.com/de-DE/games/xbox-one/xbox-one-x-enhanced-list
the 16x af on even unpatched titles can make a big difference. halo 5 and battlefield one's ground textures looked so much better on that alone. nice
Still shimmering edges. I would love a resolution bump here like they did with Halo 3 or Oblivion or Fallout 3. Would hopefully eliminate the shimmering.
you'd think of all the games they could have done it for, it would have been this one... maybe they will at a later date..
The 16AF is a massive boost for some titles, especially with no extra texture assets etc. Hoping for NG someone shows some more BF1 stuff.
Actually, can anyone test load times etc for Battlefront 1?
As Albert Penello said in the IGN Unlocked podcast not all games support the method they use to implement this. So maybe the way the game is coded doesn't allow it to give it the same treatment.
Yes, but past exclusives on One and 360 may stay that way, and RDR2 will presumably be a timed console exclusive (with the Xbox One X version being the best version) with a PC version at a later date.
Considering you will be able to see a tangible difference on every game you play, spanning 3 generations of software, the best performance on multiplats and it's SMALLER the XBox One X for me is an insane value. I think the system has done more than enough to justify it's price tag. End of the day it's probably the best designed console ever made, revision or not. I'd put it against any system for price /performance at the moment. The tech is amazing.
Looking really impressive based on that Digital Foundry video. Definitely shows that it pays off to implement dynamic resolution scaling.
Thanks for posting this, my god the X is showing huge improvements all round
Re: Wolfenstein 2
So on the website (https://www.xbox.com/en-AU/games/xbox-one/xbox-one-x-enhanced-list) Microsoft lists Wolfenstein as merely "Xbox One X Enhanced"
On the box I see Ultra HD 4K
What's to be believed?

I have gone back and forth so many times on if I should buy this thing. I have a PS4+, Switch and Xbox One OG. I don't play OG a ton and I still play PS3, Wii U, 360, etc. I have a 4k HDR tv and I am excited about how it upgrades essentially any xbox compatible game but at the same time I feel really stupid buying another $500 console when I paid $400 something for the OG Master Chief bundle.
I have the money to buy it, but when I see that I can sell that OG for around $100-$150 it makes me a little sad. I am buying into the hype but something is still telling me to wait this one out.
Anyone else have similar concerns?

Funny how people blasted dynamic resolution as "lol 1080pr!". They probably had a game plan from the get go. Awesome stuff.
