I just recently upgraded my Nintendo to the new SUPER Nintendo. Holy cow! What a difference. There are so many more colors and everything is so much more vibrant.

Have you guys upgraded yet?

 

[veterangamerUK]

I will admit I am happy enough with this genes graphics as long as texture pop in was eradicated

I can't confirm if the scaler while game mode is different, but I agree with you about the output. While 4k TV turn of those scaler.
So, you can change input to 4k on Xbox One S? He remain at 4k while playing games or he go back to 1080p?

Yes, the one s has 4k output. The TV thinks the signal Is 4k so it doesn't apply any scaling. The internal rendering resolution is the same as an Xbox one though.

 

[Discusguy]

Just goes to show how stellar the scaler chip in the Xbox S is.

I find it funny how some are dragging the Xbox S for scaling but are completely find with dynamic resolutions.

 

[Justin9mm]

This thread is like when my parents watched free to air tv channels in SD and then bought a 4K TV and started watching free to air in HD which is like 1080i and telling me the 4K is really good!

Xbox One S can output 4K, but not on games but movies right? It's got a UHD Blu Player in it right.

It can output 4K period. It will upscale the games, and it does it fairly well.

 

[Justin9mm]

I am starting to realize that some people in this thread have some trash Black Friday special $200 4K TVs. I am sorry but 4K and HDR are not overrated at all.

Either that or they just got no idea in general.

High Defintion must be overrated too then. We should all go back to 540p you won't see a difference lol

 

[JohnnyFootball]

Dunno what the scaler of Xbox One S, but TV scaler vary between brands. Bravia have one of the most powerful scalers on the market. IDK if is a good ideia putting scaler inside another scaler. They don't stack so well.

What do you mean? If one thing is scaling the other most likely isn’t.

 

[Elcid]

How i feel right now after creating this thread and reading how idiotic my post was

You were so excited too.

 

[Alan Wake]

One S was nice. Getting the One X was the big step, though.

 

[ToughestSoul]

dude just enjoy, dont worry about res.

Yeah, you were so happy earlier, too.

 

[DeaDPo0L84]

This thread was so innocent, I love it.

 

[AeonGaidenRaiden]

I think his heart broke when he realized he bought the wrong xbox You know whats happening tomorrow morning: " Hi madam, I decided to return this xbox, my kid just doesnt play it". Goes to the store across the street and buys Xbox ONE X.

 

[Alebrije]

This thread will be relevant on november 10 whent lots of kids and adults will receive Xbone X instead of series X....

-Dude look graphics on series X 4k is great.....
-But that is not the new Xbox bro.

 

[VertigoOA]

For fucks sake... lol

 

[Journey]

OP you bought a 4k TV and downgraded your gaming system from ps4 to One S...

Not really a downgrade when watching 4K Blu-ray. I still don’t understand how Sony left that one out of the Pro.

 

[GHG]

Mission failed.

Return to base and await new instructions from Greenberg.

 

[DESTROYA]

Opps

 

[Cyborg]

Imagine wanting 4K and buying One S!

OP I wont judge cause I dont know your financial situation. Still moving from X360 is a big step! Enjoy.

 

[LOLCats]

Yeah, you were so happy earlier, too.

yep right after i ignored you permanently.

 

[ToughestSoul]

yep right after i ignored you permanently.

? I meant the OP, jeez

 

[Bog]

My buddy Rob just got a PS2. He thinks it’s sick.

 

[n0razi]

Ya gotta be kidding lol, its not real 4k? Like an upscale 4k?

And thats the moment when we throw your opinions out the window lol

 

[soulbait]

Huh? In my xboxsetting my TV is 4k, HDR enable, how come its not 4 K?

The Xbox One S has a 4k scaler built into it, so it upscales non 4k content to 4k. None of the Xbox One games will be in native 4k on the Xbox One S; they are upscaled.

 

[Fake]

What do you mean? If one thing is scaling the other most likely isn’t.

Not true. Unless you put the max output, both stack. There is no 'signal' for telling if is already a scaler in place. As the previous conversation, if you put the Xbox at 4K output the TV scaler is automatic disable, otherwise will still in place.

Imagine wanting 4K and buying One S!

OP I wont judge cause I dont know your financial situation. Still moving from X360 is a big step! Enjoy.

My purpose of buying the One S was to play Forza, and some racing games from the 360 era, Burnout Revenge, Split Second, Hydro Thunder.Just dont want to jump on the Series just yet, waiting to see if there is any hardware problems for new generation coming out.

Still, to my surprise ( which you all break ), i realise that the One S was displaying in 4K, which was a thing i was not thinking, but was surprise to see. When i set it with HDR , it look pretty amazing, and want to share my joy of discovering 4K. The rest is history now

 

[veterangamerUK]

Very simple. The guy was BLOWN AWAY by his "4k picture" meanwhile it's 1080p! haha. As sleepy would say, "c'mon man!"

Outside of bestbuy, normal people don't care about HDR. It's completely over hyped and often times looks even darker unless you were using movie mode as your non hdr benchmark. The entire thing is a overblown mess.

Absolute crap. When HDR is used by people who know what they are doing, it completely enhances a game. Viewing it on a laptop or tablet isn't giving the right image. Needs to be on a mid-expensive TV

I just recently upgraded my Nintendo to the new SUPER Nintendo. Holy cow! What a difference. There are so many more colors and everything is so much more vibrant.

Have you guys upgraded yet?

Report me for trolling MS/Xbox threads > 06/20

 

[CthulhuPL]

OP if you want to be blown away by 4k, buy an Oled tv and xboneX or wait for series X...

 

[dottme]

I think this thread confirm my feeling. Everyone fight on the resolution with the DF video to prove it, but at the end of the day, most of the people doesn’t really care.
I know i can feel the difference when i switch a game from performance mode to the better resolution. But if i don’t really switch, i don’t really care if it’s 1080p/720p/4K or whatever. If the game looks great for you, that’s the important point.

 

[ANIMAL1975]

Not really a downgrade when watching 4K Blu-ray. I still don’t understand how Sony left that one out of the Pro.

Yeah i buy my GAMING SYSTEMS primarily to watch 4k Blu Rays... lol

 

[Solrac]

the power of mind...

 

[ThisIsMyDog]

I think that was trolling, gj

 

[FIREKNIGHT2029]

Yikes!

 

[Bridges]

It took me literal months to notice when my Xbox One X had been accidentally switched to not output in 4K. Months.

Graphics are cool and all but I'm pretty convinced that without a direct side-by-side comparison most people wouldn't be able to tell the difference between 4K and 1080p.

 

[ManaByte]

Reading the OP and the first page:

 

[01011001]

Xbox One X can run 4k games. not S

both can, the S just doesn't do it for obviously GPU power reasons.
there are like 3-4 games that run at 1440p tho, like Doom 64

Im very curious to see if i could see a difference, well, kind of seeing one when my system was set in 1080p and i set it in 4k, feels im seeing at a better resolution, but i think what made me see a total difference is putting the HDR. I think in this game if your tv and system, games are set correctly, its amazing. And my tv is not even a top of the line, in the system settup for hdr and lightning adjustment, there is some option you have to see two eyes, only seeing one, which tell me im not even seeing how much better it could look with a better tv. But anyway, on my 55 inch, i feel i see some difference from 1080p. Pretty sure getting a better tv i would see an even bigger difference, right now, im not seeing a difference as example 720p vs 1080p, but notice its better.

 

[Red-Town]

How far are you seating from your tv OP?

 

[devilNprada]

Naaaaaa . I think this game still look amazing, but i guess i gotta wait again to experience true 4k!

Imagine you could have gotten it at launch, gotten years use out of it, with a cool useful kinnect to boot.

 

[Iced Arcade]

Great little console but yeah you fell for some marketing tags. You do have a 4k BluRay layer though

The One S is shit. It doesn't run anything in 1080p even.

Lol keep that same energy for the opposite

 

[HF2014]

How far are you seating from your tv OP?

Around 6 feets.

 

[anothertech]

For a game to be 4k, you just have to believe it's 4k...

 

[DiegoAndrad]

Lol, this reminds me of when my father invited me over to check out this new 4k TV, he had just bought. When I got there, he started a movie on Netflix, but he had some network issue and his wifi was quite unstable, so Netflix was streaming at 720p and at a low bitrate, nevertheless he bragged about how great the image looked. I mean, there was a lot of compression artifacts, you couldn't see any detail at all, but somehow it looked great to him. He only noticed when I connected the TV over ethernet and the stream went to 4k.

 

[alabtrosMyster]

Huh? In my xboxsetting my TV is 4k, HDR enable, how come its not 4 K?

I knew MS marketing would be able to fool many.

The machine has a 4k output, but this is basically a base Xbox one,it runs the games in the same resolution and framerate as the base system.

 

[SEGA_2012]

OP i have an Xbox One S too and it is amazing. Great console with great games.

 

[Wonko_C]

I just recently upgraded my Nintendo to the new SUPER Nintendo. Holy cow! What a difference. There are so many more colors and everything is so much more vibrant.

Have you guys upgraded yet?

Not sure what you're implying here but the Super Nintendo was an actual huge upgrade from the 8-bit NES. It is impossible to not notice it, both graphics and sound-wise.

 

[German Hops]

Fantastic thread.

 

[makaveli60]

What’s the best HDR game on PS4?

HZD looks pretty nice with it on my TV, but it’s a 20% upgrade, I think.

Witcher 3’ HDR is nice but too dark.

Besides movies, which really look nice, I’m still unimpressed with HDR in games.

I was unimpressed at first too, I even made a thread about it. It's really a hit or miss with games.
Doom Eternal is awesome with it, Ghost of Tsushima also (dramatic mode), Mafia Definitive Edition, TLoU 2. All of these are much better with HDR, and again, this is coming from someone who was worried if his TV is faulty based on Horizon and some other "go to" HDR games.
