Nice! Have you tested it?

Played doom eternal with the DV badge @ 120 hz but seriously my 40something years old eyes can't really tell the difference. Of course at 120hz is buttery smooth.

Xbox just got updated- 4K Home Screen and night mode in accessibility options.

It’s awesome that we’re getting QOL improvements every month.

Did you update via OTA or manually? I don’t have the update for my CX yet.

OTA I guess. It just happened automatically and was just pleasantly surprised when i saw the DV badge on some games that didn't have it previously.

Just checked again on my 55" CX that it's indeed on 4.30.10 and my 4k TV details on the Xbox says 4k DV @ 120hz.

I never really cared for the UI resolution, since it's just something I got used to. Is the 4K UI noticeably different from the 1080p one? I haven't used my Series X for a few days.
*
For me, not that noticeable. the last 2 years of working from home have really taken a toll on my aging eyes.

I know Forza Horizon 5 will be on Gamepass day one, but I think I'll buy the ultimate edition as usual. I've been supporting the Forza series for a long time, and this time will be the same. Besides, I need those car passes!
*
I don't think the Ultimate version is worth it with GPU. I just bought the premium additions add-on bundle pack over the weekend. it's about USD45 and it's basically an ultimate upgrade pack and crucially gives you early access from this Friday. Most importantly, it comes with the VIP pass which is the 2x credit reward, wheelspins etc - I've found that this is crucial if you want to avoid too much grinding for cars that you want.

I figure if you really want, since you have GPU, you can buy the base game to own when it's heavily discounted 1 year down the road.

I want it mosly because of VIP pass + car packs, because I've been doing that with all of the Forza games starting from FH5. Yeah the price is steep, but I don't mind supporting the the Forza guys. That means both Turn 10 and Playground.

Anyway how much is the add on pack? Might take a look at that instead.

USD45 with GPU as written above...

Damn weird how its almost half price in China. IDK if its even possible to buy it from there.
Out of all the accessible options, Brazil store is the way to go for me.

10% discount with GPU.

If you can get brazil edition then great. Good Luck!

I bought the premium add on pack in the end. Yet I'm not able to play somehow. I get the usual "you're too early" notification.

Change your Xbox location! I changed mine to singapore yesterday to unlock at midnight.

wow so many forza horizon kaki lol. i am not fans of racing, so not sure wanna buy premium or not lol. takut i play abit then no play liao.

If you’re undecided just wait until next week. If you don’t buy the pass you’re still getting the same game with the free 2 play edition. The best part for me about the premium access is the VIP membership which makes the game less grindy and you can get that later if you want.

So I've been playing Forza Horizon 5 these past few days. Mostly on PC though. On Series X do you guys play in Quality or Performance mode? I'm not sure I can play in 30fps anymore if using Quality mode. How does the Performance mode look?
*
I've been playing a mixture of performance and quality mode still haven't decided which mode i prefer most. I have mixed feelings about it - I mean you're driving around like a mad man anyway so you're not going to be paying too much attention to the detail but at the same time, the lighting and detail even when not focusing is so immersive. The experience is so consistent as well that you forget that its 30fps that you just go with the flow. But then 60 fps is 60 fps and there is a noticeable difference when you first switch versions but then you forget that you're playing with less detail because you're zooming all over the place anyway!

Also, I was watching the digital foundry comparison video and was amazed at what they managed to achieve especially on the xbox one x and one s versions.

*photo taken at 60fps

Managed to 3 star all the drift zones at 30fps but I had to switch up to 60fps for some of the story missions.. So yeah, in my experience the fps does have some effect on gameplay..

I'm crap at photography but damn the quality mode photos are insane..

Today I wanted to play some games on my Series X. I can't play any games at all now. Getting this error code 0x8007023e. Anyone know why this is happening? I even did a soft reset but it didn't help.

Damn it. What do you think? A temporary system error caused by some Microsoft update? I was going to call up Impulse to send it for RMA.

I think most likely some xbox live outage...

Guess I'm not the only one. The Xbox support team is aware of the issue. I'll just leave it for now.

I just tested my old Dead Or Alive 4 disc on the Series X. I HATED playing single player DOA4 against the AI. But in terms of game design I did like it. More than DOA5 and DOA6 in fact. Personally I liked DOA the most when Itagaki was in charge.

I was hoping for the DOAXBV 1&2 BC but alas I think KT are too busy nickel diming the DOAXBV f2p versions and DOA costume packs lol.
