Any other PS4 Pro users getting best version of 3rd party games on Xbox One X from now on?

Yeah between X enhancements and BC, my Pro is there for exclusives.
I've really learned my lesson now about multiplats. I'm still SUPER pissed at myself from last gen for starting so many multiplats on PS3 that are now BC on Xbox.
I'm aware that I can just start them again on Xbox but my trophy OCD simply won't allow it. Fuck.

Or you compare on the same TV that has connected a Pro and a One X as I did with my neighbors PS4 Pro and my own Xbox One X as I only have a PS4 Slim. Comparison took place with similar or identical scenes. Result: There was only one game he was not able to see a big difference and that was FF15. All others we tested (where we had both the same game) my neighbor saw the difference (RotTR, ACO, GhostRecon: Wildlands). After we did the comparison, one week later he told me he bought an X. He never owned a Xbox before btw.
P.S. The comparison took place on a LG B6 OLED 65" by switching between HDMI channels.

It's not just looking the best on the one x. It's the confidence of knowing all my games will carry over to next gen seamlessly.
I absolutely fucking despise my xbox.
I've only got it for exclusive titles that are not on pc.. so like.. Halo.
I'd rather play the lesser version and stay on my playstation, never bothered me on PS3 and won't bother me here.

I get them on X because 1, the hardware and 2, im more likely to have the game still work on the next console on xbox than i am on playstation. Their work with BC (with enhancements) has made it an easy decision for me.
The menu in GoW makes my Pro sound like a jet taking off. I just don't get it. I'm about ready to try replacing the thermal paste because it's so obnoxious. My X1X is completely silent.
Feels like the Pro was rushed out before the X and it shows - or screams. Do better Sony.
I just want to say that yeah there is a difference, and its definitely easier to see side by side, but in all honesty when you start playing its fps that actually makes the longest lasting impact. 4K looks nice but after sometime those differences dont really impact me and I couldn't care less. So I can see why some individuals really dont care or just dont to see the difference at a first glance.
Now I know there individuals out there that look for any little increase in quality but that isn't a deciding factor for majority of ppl.
I enjoy Sony's first party stuff...but it's usually a play once never play again type deal on most titles
I find because of Xbox unlocked region accounts I can swap regions and buy the cheapest digital copy and dlc without any of the annoying ps4 region/account crap
So mines basically for a different reason...the visuals are just a nice cherry

Witcher 3 was my first third party game on X. I will buy all third party games on X from now on. Out of the first party, only Halo 5 MP is my thing.
Love the UI, but hate how clunky taking screenshots is compared to PS4.

Why arent the people saying "But my 2500$ is better" get warning for off topic and thread derailing?
I get that this is your opinion, and that's fine but I've now seen it so many times so I want to comment on it in general.
I really dont see how "Sony" games are any more throw away than any other. To me pretty much every game is play once material unless its GAAS and a good multiplayer. Like objectively can anyone explain how Sony games are the worst for multiple play throughs?
The games are not bad...don't get me wrong....but Sony's 1st party stuff are generally single player games and to me once you have played through offer no more replayability outside of collecting trophys or the odd dlc add-on like the frozen wilds but I find no other compelling reason to go back and play them
Give ms shit for concentrating on gaas but it's a model that adds continued content and most of the ms 1st party stuff is multiplayer so it's always a different experience so its a big point of difference i think which people overlook
Hope that explains my reasoning....it's not bagging out Sony's first party stuff which I love but it's a single serve experience on ps4 for me.
Yup, just like using the X more.
Don't like using the DS4. Don't like the ecosystem.
I agree for sure, and that's why I commented in general since I've seen so many ppl say it. GAAS is definitely where the time playing is. I've put a ton of time in Fortnite more than most games. But I just feel it isn't just Sony, it's pretty much every game. I can list the endless amounts of games I've gotten bored with and dropped or raced through outside of Sony exclusives. Many of them third party publishers. I tend to actually finish sony games because they dont bloat as much as other games.
Gimped? Ok then.
Third party games still look amazing on the Pro, and there are other factors apart from visuals that may make the PS4 version the best option.
They're gimped relative to the 1X versions, doesn't mean that they're bad. If you had a PS4 Pro and then bought a 1X but then still played all your third party games on the PS4, what was the point of getting the Xbox? Having the best third party console games is the main reason to buy the the thing for most people.
If sony bought back games like socom ....mag..warhawk..twisted metal.it would probably mean more time on the ps4 for me .....I miss those games
X, X-enhance, BC, better (elite) controller (my preference) and it's much much quieter than my pro. All reasons anything non exclusive is X based.
I've read user comments on here where they only bought an X for enhanced BC games. I've got both and sometimes I'll get the Pro version if there isn't much of a difference ie AC Origins.
I'll be picking up the Witcher 3, which I've finished twice in the past on PS4, for the X so I can play it with the enhancements.

I'd assume that most people who own a PS4 Pro and then buys an Xbox One X would plan on playing third parties on the X for the rest of the generation.
I traded my PS4 Pro for an XBX ... pretty happy with it. Switch for Nintendo stuff, XBX for everything else.
Nope waiting for PS5 for the graphics upgrade for next gen. For now Pro does a pretty great job. Also Sony's exclusives are what keeps me tied to PS brand.
Can't answer the poll accurately given how I use the two systems.
For cross platform games that need a large competitive user base like say fighting games, I tend to go for PS4 Pro.
For stuff that just require pure graphical grunt like Assassin's Creed Origins, I'll go Xbox One if I come across something on sale.
But then, I also have a pointlessly strong PC so best for multiplatform is generally going to be there unless I want quality HDR implimentation.

I was looking to trade my s in to upgrade at gamestop.
They only offer 90 for an s? That's awful.

I'll go where the power is for consoles and third parties . I enjoyed games like watchdogs 2 on pro but I've now moved everything over to the one x. I really like it. My pro is an exclusive box now which is great with games like God of war. I can't stand the noise of the pro though. Its really poor
I think another factor that could come in to it is how MS are handling BC so far. We're playing 2 generation old games in resolutions far above what they were back then, and 360 games in full native 4K with better effects and framerates. If you buy 3rd party games on Xbox now there's a good chance that come the next console you'll be playing them on it with better framerates and higher resolutions yet again. I think it's amazing that in 10 years time we could potentially be playing Red Dead Redemption or Halo 5 in 8K+ on Xbox.
I bought an X solely (at the time) for the amazing BC support.
Since trying Multiplatform games I think I'll be choosing X from now on. Even a little bit better is worth it for me.

X is nice but assuming the PS5 is backwards compatible, the X is irrelevant. Imo this is the generation backwards compatibility becomes critical and MS fucked up out the gate. I loved my X while I had it but I always found myself buying PS4 titles regardless. Like RDR2 for example is a PS4 Buy, built from the ground up for PlayStation implies the X version will be more brute force and less finesse.
There's a 95% chance RDR2 will be better on 1X despite the marketing deal.
I dont think there's a chance that rdr2 will run better on the pro..I mean why it would? The x is just better hardware...maybe moneyhattin them but ..that would become an instant insult to the devs and R* aren't stupids
So no. 99.9% best vesrion will be on the X
