Doesn't answer the quest though. They aren't getting paid for the patch as far as we know except to drive interest. And I can't imagine a patch like this drives much interest to begin with. So if they intend to fix it, what was their incentive to push it out in a bad state?
There is nothing of mysterious about such stuff. Maybe their engine doesn't scale very well between the two different xbox sku and they haven't considered to test the update more deeply before the release just for time/costs constraints.

I'm super stoked to see what enhancements Control will have. Ever since Max Payne I've been there day one for Remedy's games (remember the Mad Onion 3DMark demo of Max Payne? I watched it so many times in anticipation!). Next week also brings us Supermassive's next game, which is being touted as 4K with HDR on the Microsoft Store.

But next week is not this weeks sadly. So, I have updated the OP with the following titles for this week:

FIA European Truck Racing Championship Day One Edition
2160p​
RAD
UNKNOWN​
Vigor
2160p​
Whipseey and the Lost Atlas
2160p​

Generation Zero is now the free play days game, did anyone try it? It's supposed to be X enhanced but I'm not seeing it at all. It's a shame because at times it can look rather nice but due to low resolution, especially visible on a larger screen, aliasing, blurry visuals really ruin it.

RAD seems hard to peg, I'm guessing either 1400/1800p or something beacuse it's not as sharp as full 4K game unless there's some sort of weird filter or post processing going on.

Blair witch is gamepass correct? If so I'll be downloading that for sure.

I sold my Xbox One X to buy stuff for my PC and I really haven't enjoyed PC gaming that much and miss my Xbox like crazy. I have the Gears of War XB1X preordered but it's so late in the game to drop $500 on a new console when they've already announced the new one is coming next year. That and most of my friends play on PS4 which I have but I'm not crazy about the controller since I've been an Xbox fan since like 2003 and it just doesn't feel very good in my hands. I'm at a loss of what to do. The GoW XB1X is a really pretty console though....

I've got a weird cross-mix going on between my 1X and a recent laptop that makes it harder to choose where I'll play specific games. I really can't deny the draw of the simplicity of my 1X setup, even in games I know there would be definite advantages for on the laptop. So far it's just meant I get to choose my preference, but I can easily imagine that shifting into a "too many choices" freeze.

Blair witch doesnt look 4k and the performance is awful.

Exactly! I fired it up and it just doesn't look that crisp at all, I'm in the woods now and it just looks rather soft, and like you said... the performance....

I don't get why these devs just can't seem to get that right. Layers of Fear and Observer were like this too, bummer.

Not all devs are created equal. I wish every game on XB1X looked/ran as good as Forza Horizon 4 but not even 1% of the games do.

But honestly they should be commended for even having 1X support at all. I feel like half the games added to Gamepass, especially indies, only support the pleb base model.

I am eagerly looking forward to Gears 5. I got a gaming PC figuring I'd play all MS titles there, but without a 4K monitor (and having a 4K TV), the promise of 4K60 (or close to it) is hard to pass up.

If it holds 4K the majority of the time it'll be nothing short of an astonishing achievement, IMO.

Xbox Wire lists Final Fantasy VIII Remastered as "Xbox One X Enhanced", but that's the only mention I see of it being so; the Microsoft Store doesn't list as much.


You and me both! Ultimate Game Pass subscribers should have access to it Friday morning, right? Though on the Microsoft Store it says it unlocks 09.05 at 8:00 PM. Oh, I hope that remains true!

According to some update from last week, Ultimate is available at 9pm local time on Thursday.

I wonder if it's something to do with the videos

The videos have gamma mismatched even in SDR so I'm not sure if that's the reason.
I wonder if the game hasn't been made in a linear space, it appeared to be rendering relatively early with gamma correction applied

X and XII weren't listed as X Enhanced when they came out either despite being so. Though not sure if it really matters considering how low resolution the backgrounds are.
