Xbox One X

Zenimax, I doff my hat to you.

Having the Xbox One X is potential, but without games tuned for it's capability, that's untapped potential. Right out of the gate, on launch day, you optimized your game for the One X. I'm am truly impressed and, as best to my knowledge, you are the first AAA developer to have a game optimized for One X that wasn't released within the last 3 months. In fact, your game released 2 years ago and can use the One X's potential where Bungie's Destiny 2 released 2 months ago and can't.

Most impressive. Again, I doff my hat to you.

Do you even know yet how it performs on the X?

I won't have mine until tomorrow so can't speak to performance yet but as far as graphics go I've confirmed you get native 4K like the PS4 Pro along with the features that are in the Pro's enhanced 1080p mode (SSAO + reflections), and a view distance boost.

So you get improved graphics on top of the native 4K and increased view distance compared to the Pro that only gets native 4K.

Gears of War 4 was released over a year ago and is getting XB1X upscale support. Looks gorgeous too.

Halo 3 from 2007 is getting One X treatment.

Yes, kudos to ZOS for making these enhancements ready for the console's launch date!

Now all I have to do is get home from work to feast my eyes upon the new goodness.

It looks great, imo. I have an Xbox one and now this One X connected to the same tv. I switch from one input HDMI to another. Sign in as my son on the x1 and me on the 1x. Go to the same place and compare. You can see the difference.

Now, will this difference change the game? No. I can complete the same missions as I did before. Although Destiny 2 isn't optimized, the 120hz of the tv does make fps games smoother and cleaner. If only D2 was optimized for the 1x.

It's looks nice and clean with great color depth. The system seems to process changes faster, but that could be me wanting to see something.

Nevertheless, I have a feeling I'll get used to this as my gaming standard. I completely understand that the graphical and processor upgrades of the 1x doesn't affect the quests or events during a game, but these enhancements will spoil me and become my standard moving forward for future consoles and TV purchases.
