The Xbox Series X|S thread

Today's update to the list of games added to BC is the last.

 

“While we continue to stay focused on preserving and enhancing the art form of games, we have reached the limit of our ability to bring new games to the catalog from the past due to licensing, legal and technical constraints.”

 

Fantastic work by the BC team of Xbox, though.

Yeah. 

 

Xbox bounce back this gen is even better than PS3 in second half of that generation.

Yeah, Give me half of the quality exclusives PS3 had in its second half then we'll talk.  Bounce back.  There are doing well but nothing even close to the quality PS3 did in that gen. f**king TLOU was on PS3 and looked fantastic.

Not sure if serious. Emojis means it's joke.

 

But I will answer anyways.

 

MS game studios have released following games that would rival any single year PS3 had:

 

AOE4

Deathloop

Psychonauts 2

Flight Simulator

Forza Horizon 5

 

Upcoming Halo Infinite.

Gears 5 is best one yet and has an excellent recap. If you are short on time, that's the way I will go.

 

No harm in playing old ones though, but Gears 5 has huge multiplayer section that will be better time spent. IMO of course.

Psychonauts 2 -Multiplatform

Stick to a single track 

If you want to discuss M$’s comeback in the gaming scene as a whole. 
 

Or want to discuss Xbox the console’s comeback.

Its same thing. MS, Xbox.

 

All games I mentioned will come to xbox consoles. 

 

I don't care if it's exclusive or not as long as MS is making it. It just increases faith that they will make good games in future as well.

He can keep playing Gears 5 MP simultaneously 

while playing the entire series from the start.

 

That’s what I would advise.

 

Also be sure to start with Gears 1 UE & not the actual Gears 1.

awesome

 

XSX is the 1st Xbox for me and it has been a very satisfying year so far

[AnK]

First few years of XB360 were the true Golden times of XB history.

 

Sadly we see no one talking about it at this 20th anniversary occasion & new age kids are just flying around with fake & inconsequential merits of “the new system”. 
 

Call of Duty2

GRAW

Splinter Cell DA

Dead Rising 

ES Oblivion 

Saints Row

Gears of War

Lost Planet 

Mass Effect

Bioshock

Halo 3

Crackdown

 

Albite,yes most turned out to be timed exclusives 

 

But the first few years 360 was the place to be for quality AAA gaming. 
& yes each game was $60 even back then. 
 

All hail Peter Moore the true messiah of Xbox brand

Guy made a turn around of the brand without any sort of freebie bandwagon & help from M$. 
 

If it wasn’t for his hardware team failing him & RROD emerging out of no where,he would have spent all those billions of dollars into help funding

possibly even nurturing & then acquiring a lot of great exclusive gaming content.

please tell me that it retains resolution of OneX version.

 

& doesn’t downscale to OneS 1080p port. 

 

One X going by the list where default is off on Series X.

So essentially Gears 4 is the only game left that can’t do 4K@60fps. 
 

Do it TeamXbox.

Old games aren't 4K.. just 60 FPS

Gears 2 & 3 were upscaled for XBoneX 

 

they ran at a native 4k with high resolution texture mapping on OneX after the console launch. 
 

So essentially they should run at 4k60fps on SX now 

Ultimate also got a OneX patch I think,so entire trilogy should run at 4k60 now 

 

No one cared about Judgment as it was just a cash grab spin-off.

FPS Boost is off by default on Gears 3 and 4. So, most likely not 4k60.

[AnK]

But as per this checklist only Gears 4 is turned off by default. 
 

All the rest are turned on.

EDIT:- It was not ticked on Gears 3 when AC posted it 

 

But now there is,maybe they didn’t know properly. 
 

So Gears 3 will never get a 4K@60 port unless it gets a remake/remaster. 
 

Gears 4 still has hope as all it needs is a patch from developer.
