You're better off waiting for the 4k patch with the Master Chief Collection. There's also barely any multiplayer population, searching for matches takes forever with most playlists and you'll see the same few people over and over. Also, Halo 2 is still terrible. The Gears of War 1 remaster doesn't have a 4k patch either (and won't get one in the future). It's also pretty buggy, had to restart levels quite a few times because of scripts not triggering etc. Why would you buy a Bonx for these games, seems ridiculous.

HoneyBakedMAN posted:I think I'll buy an xb1x tomorrow and start off with Master Chief collection and GoW remaster. Can someone detail what exactly is included with these? It's hard to tell from googling. Master Chief includes remastered Halos 1, 2, 3 & 4. Halo 3 ODST (campaign) is available as a $5 DLC. These are not enhanced for the X yet, so they don't look particularly amazing. An enhancement patch is "in development". GoW Ultimate Edition only includes a remastered version of GoW1 (it used to get you BC copies of the old trilogy but the offer expired). It's not X enhanced either, and no patch has been announced.

Lumpy the Cook posted:Oh what’s that? You want to download a PS3/Vita game you put on your account years ago? Have fun sorting through hundreds and hundreds of items on your Download List that can’t be sorted or filtered at all, jackass There's a browser plugin/Javascript thingie that'll unfuck the webstore and give you everything in a neatly-curated and sortable list you can launch downloads from. Dumb as hell that Sony doesn't have something official, but at least it's solvable. punk rebel ecks posted:Do Xbox One X enhanced games often have better textures and effects, or is it usually a simple resolution jump? I don't know what the ratio is, it's a mix of both, and some games even have two or three profiles you can pick like it's a PC based on what you want visually (e.g. max out everything but run at locked 30fps, or run at 60fps but sub-4K and possibly with lowered effects). Textures are a rarer boost. Also I think Steep and Tekken 7 are listed as Xbox One X Enhanced but it's lies, they both run sub-1080p. All other games which are actually enhanced should at least hit 1440p. Games actually hitting native 4K are pretty rare especially in the graphically-heavy AAA space, but there are a few, like Far Cry 5 most of the time (I think it has a dynamic scaler which can rarely drop it lower). At worst games are on par with the PS4 Pro, with almost all games being better in some capacity, albeit at varying levels depending on the dev's efforts. There are about two dozen games, mostly from late 2016-late 2017, which have PS4 Pro patches but not Xbox One X patches (Steep, Tekken 7, Watch Dogs 2, Battlefield 1, and Black Ops 3 to name a few). HoneyBakedMAN posted:I think I'll buy an xb1x tomorrow and start off with Master Chief collection and GoW remaster. Can someone detail what exactly is included with these? It's hard to tell from googling. If you mean Xbox One X Enhancements, that's an easy answer, because there aren't any. MCC is supposed to get an update eventually, along with an update that actually makes the game not a buggy piece of poo poo after 4+ years. I think the only way you could have picked worse games to show off your Xbox One X is if you dipped in the Kinect-exclusive pool. If you mean what the games include, it's roughly as follows: MCC has 1080p versions of Halo 1 Anniversary Edition, Halo 3, and Halo 4, along with a version of Halo 2 that's enhanced similarly to how Halo 1 Anniversary Edition was, including the ability to hotswap between Xbox One graphics and Xbox One graphics. It has multiplayer for all of these games, too, but with the exact same structure and restrictions as they had originally, and the matchmaking is broken as hell so you're unlikely to get a match and if you do it's essentially guaranteed to be the same players every time because no one else bothers. Also IIRC it is now literally impossible to reach the "top" players of the game because they block everyone else which prevents them from being challenged. ODST's campaign is available as paid DLC on the MCC. Note that the 360 versions of 1AE, 3, ODST and 4 are all backwards compatible, with at least 3 even actually running at 4K on an Xbox One X, and have much better online populations. Halo 5 actually has Xbox One X enhancements, for what that's worth. The game is about 100 gigs now. Gears of War Ultimate Edition is a graphical remake of Gears of War 1 and includes multiplayer. A lot of people feel the game's art was handled a lot better on 360, though. The game used to come with the 360 series of games (they are all backwards compatible including Gears of War 1 to get the original graphics) but no longer does.

I bought a 4k oled tv in anticipation of the xbox one x which i then used to play cuphead, a 1080p game that's made to look like a 1930s cartoon. I've since bought about a dozen more games which I haven't played yet, but most recently purchased and played tempest 4000, a remake of an atari game from 1981 but with marginally better graphics. It's still gotten more use than my ps4pro for which i have purchased 2 games and played none.

Halo 5s multiplayer is the best in the series hands down. It's also X enhanced and looks amazing on a 4k panel. The story is really really dumb but whatever. MCC is getting updated to 4k eventually but even now it runs fine and you can play all of the campaigns in 1080 60fps. The multiplayer also works fine I was just on it the other day with the wife and we had no issue finding games quickly. Big team battles in Halo 3 are fun as hell. Don't let the sad brains in here dissuade anyone from an X1 there is plenty to play on it, and everything looks and plays better than anywhere besides a PC.

For Halo every numbered game and Reach matters, for gears you can ignore judgment. All those games are excellent so don't worry. Do you play on OC, if not I have more games you can look into.
