Xbox One X

My X will be here Tuesday. Feeling good about it. I'm going to start with some BC stuff. I want to try Jade Empire and Morrowind. It was those announcements that first really changed my perspective on Xbox. I might play through the original Halo campaign, too.

I'm looking forward to trying out Game Pass, too. I got 6 months for $30.

There are a bunch of multiplats I'm looking forward to playing on the X: AC Odyssey, Battlefield V, Tomb Raider, Kingdom Hearts, Devil May C, Dying Light 2. It's good to know that all these games will look and play better on the X.

edit: forgot Nier.

Oblivion looks really nice too, if you’re not completely tired of that game.

Yeah, I want to try that. Hopefully it's on Game Pass. I also want to try other X-enhanced BC titles, too, like Oblivion, RDR, Fable, and Kotor.

Gears 4 is indeed on game pass.

Gears of War 3 is amazing on BC
 
Why do even the wireless headsets require the audio cable between the gamepad and the headset? Seems so archaic. Does PS4 require the same?

Just a random complaint I know lol.
 
Can any wireless headset be used on an X? I just got a great pair as a gift for music and everything else but I wasn’t sure if it could somehow be used for gaming?

I think it requires Xbox Wireless tech to just connect or you need one of those proprietary usb link hubs.

Congrats Andy. If you want a list of all the Game Pass games, Gamespot had a list here. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ga...xbox-game-pass-titles-right-now/1100-6448286/

Ninja Gaiden and KOTOR are in there from OG. All the Gears are there. Master Chief collection is supposed to get an enhanced update and be in there but don’t know when. Sunset Overdrive and State of Decay 2 are worth checking out.

Thanks for the link. I see at least half a dozen games I'd want to check out -- Gears 3 and 4, Halo 5, Homefront, Mad Max, Fable Anniversary, and Kotor. Looking forward to the MCC, when that comes.

This thing is nice. Outclasses the Pro, that's for sure.

Downloading Jade Empire. For some reason it didn't recognize the disc. UI is confusing.

I think you'll find that the UI is messier and also clunkier than that on the Pro, the sharing still isn't as easy either but they are supposed to be working on that.

Inserting any BC game as a disc will initiate a download of the game as the games are not played from the disc, yes you still have to put the disc in to play as well.

UI is a mess compared to the PS4 Pro but its better than when it 1st launched and seems 2 be getting better and better.
 
That's great but given KH's art style, I don't know if native 4K vs checkerboard is going to be noticable. The frame rate should be the big factor here.
Native will still be a cleaner, more stable image regardless
