Since I didn't see anyone else respond, thought I'd take a stab at it. The geometry here counts as 1800p. But the overall image quality isn't as high as that number would suggest. To begin with, filtering is set low (I'd say 4xAF), and the textures in general are less sharp than you'd probably want for a 4K image (though some are higher). In addition, the shadow maps are low-res, and the chainlink fence texture too thin to be seen even at relatively close distances. And there may be some sort of aggressive post-process AA involved (perhaps TAA?), because distant trees and zombies seem much blurrier than they should. The game as a whole really doesn't seem to be reaping the rewards of its pretty high buffer size.

Of course, these shots are only from one tiny area. It's quite possible the game is sharper elsewhere, or that it runs dynamically and these shots are coincidentally from a dip in performance.
Great work!! Glad you gave it a go! 1800p as we suspected then.
Damn!!! FH1!!! Love it!

I've updated the OP.

Forza Horizon looks utterly gorgeous; I can only begin to imagine what Fable: Anniversary looks like. I'm looking forward to a breakdown of The Witcher 2's performance, as well.

LOL

also, witcher 2 required I did 3-4 restarts until the console "caught" it for download, and I'm having the same problem with crackdown for whatever reason, but right now I dont care :D its vroom-from-the-past-time.
also older enhanced games like gears 3, skate, mirrors edge etc all prompted for updates.


edit:
actually, scrap the rally!
I'm playing horizon 1 ONLINE and I'm having a blast

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought games that haven't been X enhanced (360 or otherwise) only use a portion of the X's additional GPU power? Could it be the case that the performance mode option now gives it the whole 6TF?

Fable II's 10 year anniversary is this year. I'd love a remake over the X enhancement. The game has not aged well in some areas.

But nice announcements, Fable F'N Anniversary, I'm so pumped for this, also Crackown 1 and FH1 are nice additions for anyone who wants to start with the first one of these games.
Some games have unlocked framerate and can hit 60fps on X, and doubling the framerate on top of having a 9 times resolution boost seems unlikely.

Prince of Persia 08 and Deus Ex HR both have art styles that would really benefit from x enhancement, but the publishers might not be enthusiastic.

On the flipside, Xbox is highly motivated to get their own 1st party games enhanced, and they've done a good job on that front. Viva pinata? (i also want nuts and bolts, but fans might riot) Alan Wake? any of the JRPGS??????!!!!!!!!

It's crazy that it looks so damn good that you could almost say it's nearing FH3. I'm sure that is until you play them side by side though. But still amazing nonetheless.

Do enhanced 360 games also get a slight resolution boost on Xbox One S, or are the enhancements only for X?
