Any way to downgrade a X/S game?

I'm looking at you Crash 4. I was perfectly happy playing it at rock solid 1080p@60fps thanks to the XB1X enhancement.

But then they set it to 4K@60fps and it's dropping frames below what even my VRR TV can help out with.

I tried deleting it and installing it on my external drive, but it just won't even boot and insist I have to play the X/S version internally.

Nothing currently but maybe they'll add a toggle at some point if this becomes an issue

I'm getting a 1440p, 170hz monitor tomorrow. It's a big step up from my current 1080p monitor. What game should I play first on my Series S? My first thought was something like the Ori sequel.

I haven't been keeping up with the stock situation very much, though from what I can tell it's still impossible to get a XSX?

When will normal people be able to buy these without setting up a Twitter alert or buying from a scalper? Has Microsoft said anything about it?

I've seen a couple of Series S restocks, but I'm more interested in getting a Series X at some point. I currently just have a One S and it'd be nice to upgrade to the most powerful model currently available to get all of the performance boosts.

Pretty much the same situation it has been. They're selling as fast as they're produced. You should follow restock Twitter accounts and turn on notifications to have even a chance.

Another week where I'm completely frustrated by Indie devs' inability to communicate game enhancements... and without further delay, I've updated the OP with the following:

Ori's a great start. Master Chief Collection is another good one, with its 120fps support now. There's lots of great games to choose from, but if you're looking for some high framerate titles they're listed in the OP, just take your pick!

I don't know if this is a stupid question but will 4k movies from a UHD disc look better on a player like the XBX, as compared to streaming? I just bought a decent 4K TV and want to start watching UHD/HDR stuff, and all I have right now is Amazon and other streaming sites. Will I notice a difference on say an XBX or any other 4K disc player? I only ask it in here because I'd prefer to buy an XBX soon for UHD/HDR.

If you're not that much into gaming, you're better off buying a separate player because at this moment, neither Xbox nor PS5 support Dolby Vision from an UHD. It's utterly stupid from both companies but what can you do.
And since a huge amount of UHD support Dolby Vision, it would be a shame not being able to use it.

And like someone else said, there seemed to be a black level issue on Xbox Series X, but I have no idea if they fixed that.

Edit:

Google says that's fixed at least.

Too late since I bought a Series X from a poster here a couple weeks ago lol. I've only tried one UHD, T-2, and I'm not incredibly impressed with it but maybe I had unrealistic expectations. I had just bought a new $700 4K TV and I really wanted something cool to go with it, and I couldn't wait. I'm also pretty disappointed in visuals on games but oh well. The quick resume and load times are awesome, especially in the Forza games.

T2's UHD is one of the worst transfers out there. It scrubs all detail from the image with a heavy DNR pass and from memory the HDR isn't even that great. My suggestion is to pick up another disc that's known for having insane HDR. And if you're not looking at starting a huge collection do a little research on the transfer quality, as some are less than amazing.

I'm signing up for Gamefly and I'm just going to rent mostly. In the past, buying movies, for me, has been a waste of money. I only bought T2 because it was cheap on Amazon.

Well know that pretty much every other 4k movie will look better. I have around 300 discs right now and T2 is bottom tier.

I have been meaning to ask but are there any XSX games that aren't multi-generational releases yet, or are they all cross-platform so far?

Possibly a good place to ask, is anyone experiencing pretty harsh framedrops when playing Halo 2 Anniversary on Series X? happens generally during explosions like it's more of an engine problem.

Haven't tried it personally since getting my Series X, but H2A was always the most taxing game in MCC I believe.
Yeah. It is important to remember that while MCC is XSX optimized, it is only Gen9Aware ie. Enhanced BC, and not a native XSX/S game so it is not taking as much advantage of the hardware as it could yet. They might do this later obviously but this is better than nothing.

I played it first on One X and it had random crashes. Less so on Series X but it does happen.
BL3 apparently is notorious for just causing One X's to shut down when trying to connect to a co-op game. Anecdotally, it happens to me nearly everytime I try to join a random player's game. No crash to dash, it legit shuts my console down.

Gearbox never delivered a fix and some people hypothesized that it was some weird issue with making the console think it was overheating. I really hope this isn't as big an issue on Series X (which I literally got today and left at home to transfer games from my One X).

Ive not had this happen on my Series X but it used to happen quite a bit on the One X. I think youll be alright. Ive been playing it in split-screen coop.

I played BL3 on performance mode last night. Buttery smooth 120fps. Series X is just crazy.

Is there a noticeable visual difference between the two modes? BL3 has never been an eye-popping game graphics wise, but I didn't know if I was missing out on anything super dope.

So Dishonored Death of the Outsider has the FPS boost, but not Dishonored 2? It's interesting that Dishonored 1 + DLC was able to do this update, and Dishonored DotO (which is... kinda the DLC for Dishonored 2) can do it, but not Dishonored 2 yet? Wonder if there is a technical hangup somewhere preventing it from working.

DJ Lushious small typo, AC Rogue Remastered should say 60 FPS for Series X with FPS Boost, not 30.

Edit: and, obviously huge thanks for the amazing work here!

I'm sad that apparently Black Flag doesn't have any enhancements at all? Seems like a weird gap given it was the first AC to have a native Xbox One version. But here we are where I can play all the games around it - Ezio Saga, 3, Rogue, Unity - with boost but not Black Flag :(

Thanks! That slipped by even after multiple proofreads of the additions.

Maybe it's just a matter of time? Just like Dishonored 2 didn't get an FPS Boost, yet Death of the Outsider did. Some hiccup or glitch that may have them still figuring out the kinks?

The Xbox Engineering team is beyond impressive, though. I only had the chance to fire up one game last night, Two Point Hospital, and it still blew my mind how we can go from even 30fps to 60fps through their sorcery.

Yeah same, Assassin's Creed 2 feels so good at 60, same with Prey. Really looking forward to those two in particular. It's truly amazing what the Xbox BC team has accomplished.

So happy I got a 120 Hz display. Felt like a bit of a gamble at the time but totally worth it now! And hate to say it but I'm already looking forward to Series 2X just to see the resolution compromises go away on some of these.

Holy shit, Anthem drops to 900p for 60 FPS ?

That's a massive downgrade. 2160p to 900p.

Yeah, I assume here DJ Lushious is just putting whatever config it is on One S for those FPS boost games that had to take down resolution? I guess there is no more info other than "FPS boost is off by default because resolution had to be taken down" and the rest is assumption based on the One S versions. Is that so?

Any title from this list that has a tickmark under the column "Off by Default on Series X" indicates that the Microsoft couldn't get the One X profile to play nice with FPS Boost. So, with FPS Boost enabled, then these titles ignore One X Enhancements and fall back to their One S profile.

From Xbox Wire:
In some instances, because there are higher graphics requirements to enable FPS Boost technology, we've had to reduce a game's resolution to ensure it both runs smoothly and plays great. In those select cases, such as Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 in this latest title announcement, FPS Boost is not automatically enabled for Xbox Series X gamers. For all titles receiving this update, gamers will see a clear indicator if a title is running FPS Boost.
