Here is small glimpse of multiple gameplay options game  offers

 

 

Telltale  bol kar insult kari tuney iss game ki

 

 

Telltale's TWD S1 and S2 were pretty good, rest were okay. Some people (including me) are still waiting for Wolf Among Us 2.

First Mordor game sucked a*s. So boring and repetitive. I don't expect the second to be any different

2nd one is different in the sense that it's way worse.

Guys suggest any good 1440p 144hz monitor for SX.

Currently its connected to my 4K TV but will be moving it to another room once PS5 is here.

 

Before you decide to buy a monitor, check if it's compatible with SX or not. By that, I mean that not all monitors support 1440p 120Hz on HDMI. And even some that do, might not work with the SX (apparently due to timing issues or something). So, it's better to go with monitors that are confirmed to work.

 

I have the BenQ EX2780Q. This is fully compatible with the SX.

Bro the movement and combat is jank as hell. Like I wasn't going where I wanted to half the time. a*s Creed games are 10x more intuitive than this garbage. 

Yeah, it seems to have a lot of frame time issues or something. I played it on One X and quit after playing first hour or so. It was unbearable.

 

This is what gamepass does though. You become very ruthless towards games lol. So many games I have uninstalled within first hour and didn't gave a f**k because they were on gamepass. Monster hunter world (holy sh*t this game gets on your nerves, tutorials after tutorials), Halo MCC (dated), Greedfall (looks and plays like sh*t), Shadow of War etc etc. I just don't care. Brings me back to 50rs per dvd PS2 games or early 360 days lol.

Incredible. Well worth the $15 of lifetime goodness. 

 

Using it since launch on the 1X

 

I have some questions if you dont mind...

 

1. Headphones or speakers?

2. Are they Atmos compatible?

3. Have you tried Windows Sonic and can you tell the difference between both?

 

PS - Apparently DTS:X is supposed to be pretty good as well.

Which I honestly like. I wasted 15 - 20 hours of my life on both mordor and AC origins just because I bought them. 

Even shadow of war has annoying cinematics every 5 seconds. There is no way I could ever finish it. 

 

Dude, leave everything aside and play Ori 1 and 2. I personally loved both.

2nd one has big areas with huge open world 5x bigger than 1st, so it basically plays like this..

 

 

[WhiteWolf]

Those who are into turn based RPGs, try Wasteland 3 in GP.

 

Its Fallout style story and settings in Turn based top down gameplay.  Reviews are also good

The vehicle control in Halo CE.. Dear Lord!

 

And without any clear marker/map of where to go, most of the times I'm roaming around like a headless chicken until I somehow end up in the right direction.

 

I get this is a very old game, but still... not sure if I'll be able to stick with it.

Hey bro 

1. Headphones (its virtual surround tech) 

2. Any El cheapo headphones would do. No discrimination 

3. Windows Sonic is what the xbox has had pre built. So yes used that for a long time. Dolby atmos for headphones takes it to another level altogether. You get more immersive, richer soundstage as if you're right in the middle of action. 

 

I trialled DTSX at launch. It had some spatial issues like not being able to produce directional sound even decently. The reviews were bad so never bothered trying it again after the trial.

Guys get Dolby Atmos app on Xbox. Its magic, dolby sound from regular headphones lol.

 

 

Free trial available 

 

I got it on sale at ~₹570 but it only works for games mastered in dolby atmos. List given here - https://www.dolby.com/experience/games/

 

Must play with atmos for these games

 

There's also DTS:X for heaphones but it supports less games and atmos has more verticality for sounds

How does it make any difference? Also, just because you play only AAA games, doesn't mean all others are the same. You don't get to decide which game is worth getting excited over

Warthog control in CE is iconic. Its like playing Super Monkey Ball, especially in the final escape sequence.

Both games runs fine on One X. No frame rate issues in any mordor games. Shadow of War uses 4k textures and runs great on One X

 

https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-shadow-of-war-xbox-one-x-one-version-to-rule-them-all

 

 

 

 

Locked frame rate in every scene. On technical game was polished. So stop that bs that it had frame rate drops nd all. Outside one siege area there are hardly any drops.

 

I get it you don't like the  game but game runs very good. Frame rate problems is just nonsense
