Just a reminder that @DixieDean has not posted much since Elvis insulted him for no reason.NES was the first console I ever played, followed by the SNES. Super Metroid is probably my favourite ever game. In short, go feck yourself.

Except that news hasn't come out. All we know is the preview builds UI is 1080p and that the One X had 1080p cause they wanted to give extra ram to the games.The news that the mighty Xbox Series X UI will be running in 1080p really made me laugh I must say
Ah I know I'm just trying to wind you guys upExcept that news hasn't come out. All we know is the preview builds UI is 1080p and that the One X had 1080p cause they wanted to give extra ram to the games.
It still may be 4k for release. And if not, it's purely because they think the resources could be better utilized to make the games as great as possible
Yeah but we have all learnt to just put up with @VeevaVeeGod, just catching up on this thread and it's insufferable.

I'd imagine they will eventually, but to be fair it's probably one of those things that 99% of people won't even notice.I'm hoping they (xbox) do give the UI a boost before launch - will be a shame if its not native 4K. Although I understand its for the games etc instead - it's still a shame.
Agreed. I think for me though - it's about the initial experience. i.e. every time I bump up to a new generation, I can't wait to turn on the console for the first time and see the difference when it loads up. Experience the new controller etc. I can't wait for the X - but to me it IS a shame that the controller is virtually the same, the same UI as the One etc.I'd imagine they will eventually, but to be fair it's probably one of those things that 99% of people won't even notice.
Yeah they have just gone for raw power in the hope it will gloss over the fact that everything else is the same and that they're releasing no exclusive games (hence their massive focus and push on gamepass).Agreed.

The is perhaps my most unpopular opinion, but I don't 'get' HDR at all. I can't see any difference on my TV!Not sure how to get this video directly on here - but open this up in Youtube on your HDR phone

Gears 5 is gonna end up being one of the best looking titles on console. Looks better than half the next gen game footage we've seen.
I'm sure it is mostly in jest, still a slog to get through.Obviously it's all just a laugh mate
It depends on the content of course, but in games with good HDR the difference is clearly noticeable. I went from non-HDR to HDR while playing Death Stranding and the difference as staggering in that title.The is perhaps my most unpopular opinion, but I don't 'get' HDR at all.

Enough people tell me this that I think there is something wrong with my eyes.It depends on the content of course, but in games with good HDR the difference is clearly noticeable. I went from non-HDR to HDR while playing Death Stranding and the difference as staggering in that title.
Some games don't implement it well, some TVs don't either. And also often you need to calibrate your TV settings to get the best out of it.Enough people tell me this that I think there is something wrong with my eyes.

Yeh it's great played it on pc ages ago at 4k runs amazing, nothing on the spectacle which was the original gears on 360 at the time that was mindblowing.
Watch on your phone for full HDR goodness
Gameplay wise you mean? Agreed. Follows a tried and trusted formula but with the open world spaces it evolved a little more than usual.Yeh it's great played it on pc ages ago at 4k runs amazing, nothing on the spectacle which was the original gears on 360 at the time that was mindblowing.
Nah visually, i always have Gears as the first game in that generation when you were like WOW!Gameplay wise you mean? Agreed. Follows a tried and trusted formula but with the open world spaces it evolved a little more than usual.
Interesting to see where they take the series and whether they are brave with it at some point.
Fair. To me Gears 5 is up there as one of the best looking games.Nah visually, i always have Gears as the first game in that generation when you were like WOW!
Even if it was pure grey.
I like Gears i used to love the multiplayer even with all its broken bits, p2p etc
Oh i totally agree i've gone back to 1080p and 1440p on smaller screens just with higher framerates i'm over visuals as a whole the upgrade is so small its not that astounding anymore.Fair. To me Gears 5 is up there as one of the best looking games.
I can understand not being wowed but is that not a sign of the times? To me the visuals are getting diminishing returns and greater improvements / leaps can be made to AI, enemies on screen, world size and detail, loading etc.etc.
What are the recent games where the visuals have wowed you? Even things like TLOU I think it's the animations that are so impressive.
Be honest... You didn't watch it all did you?The density of what? Enemies and shit happening? Obviously that'd be scaled back but yes.
The warping? Do you mean where he grapples to those portals and quickly changes to a new perspective within the map? If so, yes, I've played multiple games with mechanics like that.
Unless there's another video, there's no mechanics or level design in the one you shared that couldn't be replicated on PS4 in a less impressive manner.
The same sort of upgrades you'll see in a Spiderman, Gears 5 or Horizon 4.
6.6 million views for the PS5 UI first look video, the thirst is real.
Yes. Tell us the bits you're talking about.Be honest... You didn't watch it all did you?
Yes. Tell us the bits you're talking about.
@Alock1 is clearly clueless and lies about working at Microsoft.
100% on my end.Obviously it's all just a laugh mate
Xbox's first party games don't really interest me on the whole but there definitely will be a fair bit of output from the studios which will be good for the players. Only 'problem' seems to be the output is mostly a year or two out and the Halo delay doesn't really help in the meantime but in 2022 onwards once the new studios and existing studios have the games finished, there'll be enough to release a first party game on Game Pass every quarter which is great value.
@esmufc07 @afrocentricity and anybody else that think Xbox Series X isn't going to have some fantastic first party output should watch this video
