I didn't think that the Xbox 360 version of FC3 was enhanced?

Either way, the new version of Far Cry 3 is massively improved from the last gen console version. JohnnyFootball is right in saying that I was being a tad hyperbolic in my original post. The new version is massively improved from the original. But it's still incredibly disappointing overall as there's no AA on the Xbox One / X version at all. Compared to the PC version it's just a quick and dirty cash-grab. But it's still an improvement over the Xbox 360 version. That's not saying much though. It's a missed opportunity IMO. FC3 deserved more effort on behalf of Ubisoft and the contracted dev team as it's a fantastic game.

The 360 version is not enhanced and it is quite inferior to the Classic version.
It would also appear that AA has been patched into the X1X version. It must not have been mentioned in the patch notes but it is noticeably sharper than it was on release day after it got the dead zone patch.

In fact I am quite pleased with it despite it being a bare bones port. Being part of the season pass makes it a pretty good deal.

Can somebody @me when Def Jam gets backwards comparability? I'll buy an X for that one game. Come on MS...

And of course you'll post a picture and receipt too.

Cheers for the heads-up regarding the patch. I'll add it back on to my "to buy" list then. It's great that they're supporting it post-release.

Is xbox.com the best source for the list?

Thats random as hell.

Maybe they were using it to help get aquainted with x hardware?

Battlefield V has been removed from the official list.

Still shows as X1X enhanced on the store page.

It's a bug related to voice chat on the Xbox party system... Drops sharply the performance if you use while playing. Hope they fix it soon.

Saw a huge update for Batman: Return to Arkham but thought nothing out of it. But apparently both titles have been X enhanced as seen on Major's Blog. Has anyone more info?

huh. You know at first I thought Xbox One X might not be a great value because it would have only enhancements for games in the last couple years of this gen...but every time a title is retroactively enhanced it makes the console more appealing.

thats awesome. I had heard that collection was a bit rough so i never got around to picking it up. I might have to now.

 

[kingwingin]

Fired up return to arkham to see the updates and it is a lot sharper but the framerate still leaves a bit to be desired.

Both now listed on the official list:

No 4k/HDR though, just the standard 'X Enhanced'

Arkham Asylum is 60fps, looking like native 4k. Looks incredible. Arkham city is 30fps and also looks great.

 

[Skyfox]

The price for Return to Arkham has crept up so I’ve bought a copy just now for €25 from base.

Wish I’d known the enhancement was coming as it was about €13 a month ago.

Can’t wait to try it out though!

 

[Nemesis Prime]

Not sure if this is the right place. But I've been thinking about buying the X1X for a while now. I've been leaning towards buying a graphics card for my PC instead, but with the prices of cards these days and the fact that RDR2 won't launch with PC I'm considering picking up the X instead.

My biggest worry is the console might become obsolete when next gen arrives. I've heard some rumors that the X is already a kind of next gen console, there will be some crossing between the two. How true is this?

My xbox one staring to show age already, and I want to be ready for the next batch of big name games coming out. Sekiro, Cyberpunk, RDR2, Halo Infinite specifically

All games on the next-gen Xbox will be able to be played on the Xbox One X, at least that is what Microsoft has said. So for now, the Xbox One X is forward compatible unless plans change.

What do you consider obsolete? Older games will still play on older hardware. It remains to be seen if next gen consoles will be BC.

 

[Nemesis Prime]

The 360 felt very obsolete when next gen came, the new exclusives stopped making it to the console, many games started coming very unfinished etc... I’m just scared that if there is a new Xbox 2020, newer games will start to be designed exclusively for that

Seems that isn’t the case tho

uhhh have a source on this?

When they mentioned forwards compatibility, didn't they mean that games released now will be able to take advantage of the next Xbox's improved specs? Similar to X enhanced games.

 

[JohnnyFootball]

Return to Arkham looks MUCH MUCH better.

Metro Redux is the number one on my list of games I want patched.

That's good to hear. I've now added it to my "to buy" list. I finished Asylum back in the day but I never played Arkham City, so it'd be cool to finally check it out on the X.

Metro Redux is on my personal list of games that I want to be enhanced as well. Hopefully DeepSilver see it fit to update in the lead up to Exodus' release.

 

[urmie]

I just checked that official list, I had no clue Candleman is going to get an X-enhanced patch, currently showing as "In Development". It makes sense, such a good looking game, can't imagine how beautiful it will look, stoked!
Recommend picking it up, especially if it goes on sale.

Kinda wish Forza Horizon 2 was X-enhanced considering the 1st and 3rd are already, with the 4th coming soon. Why not complete the set? :/

 

[MadViking]

Apparently Rime is now enhanced. Does anyone know how is the performance?

 

[Negotiator]

Forza Horizon 2 is going to be delisted in less than a month, so maybe they don't care enough about it? Even the 360 version is not backwards compatible on Xbox One, even though FH1 is.

FH2 came out on Xbox One no?..

 

[AgentP]

I want a AC Syndicate patch.

 

[Ulysses 31]

And Gear 2, 3, Halo Reach and Fallout New Vegas.

 

[jshackles]

I want a AC Syndicate patch.

Be careful what you wish for. They released a Pro Patch on the PS4 and it made the game objectively worse. They since fixed it up but honestly it was quite the downgrade at the time.

 

[Negotiator]

FH2 came out on Xbox One no?..

Yeah, it did, but some 360 games also run on Xbox One (i.e. Bioshock, AC), despite having remastered counterparts.

Also, FH2 (both versions) still hasn't gotten an X patch...

 

[GoldenEye98]

Ok yeah I thought you were saying it's getting de-listed and it hadn't been released as BC therefore it wouldn't be playable at all on Xbox One.

 

[Noboru Wataya]

I want a Syndicate patch.

FTFY

 

[JohnnyFootball]

Does MS have a page to request enhanced titles? Metro Redux and Sunset Overdrive would be number 1 on my list.

It can't be worse than 900p.

[Kacho]

I dont think so. It’s more up to the developers IIRC so the guidance has been to reach out to them on forums, Twitter, etc. I’ve been bugging Harada for Tekken 7 enhancements for ages. No luck. Lol

 

[Skyfox]

An Arkham Knight enhancement would be so sweet...
