oh man, absolutely love my XsX

almost all of my old 360/X1 games looks like a brand new "remastered" game on the XsX

the Auto HDR + SSD and the few games that supported FPS Boost does make a night & day differences

there are few games I was planning just to try it out for few minutes, but ended up playing for hours as they are prettier and smoother now on the XsX laugh.gif

PS4 has non-existent BC, and people still buy it. They will find any reason not to like Xbox. I've accepted this already. The 360 was the Xbox system with the most number of Japanese games released on it, and STILL it's unpopular there. When Star Ocean The Last Hope was initially released as an exclusive on the 360, most of the so called Japanese fans didn't even bother to buy it. Yet when the game is released on PS3 later, they have no problem buying it there. They somehow go out of the way not to support Xbox.

Anyway, talking about BC on Xbox One / Series consoles. Most of the Japanese indies, shmups and the niche titles I think are overlooked. But for the ones that are popular, the upgrades are seriously impressive. Ninja Gaiden Black, an OG Xbox title, is 4K enhanced. Ninja Gaiden II was flawed on 360. It had a low resolution output, and not even 60fps locked. The One X enhancement made it look very sharp, and a very smooth 60 fps made the game far more playable now. Final Fantasy XIII, which looked poor back during the 360/PS3 era, now becomes the best looking console version. Bayonetta is another one that received a 4K patch, and is also the best looking console version now. My favorite BC game, Panzer Dragoon Orta looks exceptional in 4K, and can pass for an Xbox One game easily. And it was an OG Xbox title too.

I do wish more titles would get BC updated though. All of the DOA games are still not BC. Games like Outrun 2 will most likely never receive a BC patch, because the Ferrari license expired. The only way to play it is on the OG Xbox or a hacked 360. House of the Dead III is still stuck on Xbox too. You can't even buy it anymore. Same with Jet Set Radio Future, stuck on OG Xbox.

I would say 360 is still consider relatively successful in Jap & Asia, considering there are tonnes of NTSC/J games, and a few JRPG games like Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, and Tales of Vesperia did help with the selling of 360

it's just MS has totally dropped the ball with X1 launch in Jap & Asia, which IMO is a total failure when they abandon Jap market totally

I still love the time i spent most with Xbox 360 during university time, 2006~2009 biggrin.gif

Evethough i admit i played pirate that time but i still purchase those original JRPG games which i still owned in my collection.

Really hope M$ can rethink to BC both Magna Carta 2 and Eternal Sonata T___T
*
360 era is the era I started to go 100% ori biggrin.gif
as well as most consoles I've own for a single gen

MS already halted BC development for XB and X360 games, our hope of getting those BC in future is as good as nil
they are concentrating on FPS Boost for the existing BC titles now

guess the only chance playing those on new console is hoping for a remaster

I see a 3.55mm audio jack in Xbox controller. Can it be used as an audio output? Or just for in-game voice chat?
*
yes, you can plug your headset to it, I'm using my Arctis Wireless Pro headset via wired to it, since the all the next gen console doesn't have any optical out sad.gif

Sound quality wise, once I've enabled the Dolby Atmos for headphone, it's sound as good as the original setup via optical
but it will drain the battery of the controller a lot more faster

anyone of your controller's A button is a bit erratic at times?

mine sometimes wasn't registered, and sometimes the timing a bit off, especially when performing double jump in some games

haven't noticed the other buttons, since A is the one I used the most now as I'm playing Destiny 2 most of the time where you need to jump a lot

At first yes, but now mine seems ok d.

But right now my White controller will have some "ngek ngek" sound

hmm... seems our controller now also got "break-in" period laugh.gif

I suspect the culprit could be the new Dynamic Latency Input (DLI) feature introduced in the series S/X
somehow the AI screw up the inputs when you pressed them rapidly hmm.gif

it doesn't happen at all with my old Xbox One controller, the new controller screw up my jumps in Destiny a lot

Seems the new controller or console have this new bug

last time when I changed batteries mid game, the controller aren't able to connect back to the console, the light keep blinking, tried both using the sync button and usb cable to re-connect, both no joy

then have to shutdown & restart the console, only then the controller are connected.

when I took out the batts, the game didn't prompt me the usual "controller disconnected" message, no message at all.

when checking with uncle google, seems I'm not the only one experiencing this issue, and MS is aware of this, i expect there will be another firmware update for the controller soon

connectivity issue aside, I hope we won't have the same drifting issue plaguing the dualsense right now, since the reports saying xbox are using the same components as sony as well. hmm.gif

Interestingly I only ever experienced stick drift on my old 360 transforming Dpad, and my current Dualshock 4. None of my Xbox One controllers have it. I haven't put enough time into the Series controller yet. Just the other day I was playing Uncharted Lost Legacy, and I saw the camera was slowly panning left. I thought it was just a cinematic camera shot, but it was actually my right analog stick having stick drift haha.
*
yeah, I've changed 2 or 3 DS4 due to drift issue throughout my 6 years of PS4 era dry.gif

let's pray Xbox series doesn't suffered from it

quick resume is still a bit buggy for some games

few of the games I've tried with quick resume are missing audio or background music, need to quit & restart the game only then it's back to normal

Thinking of getting XSX. I have been preparing for PS5 but since the consoles is as hard to get as Cominarty vaccine, I think I will settle with XSX.

A few questions for you guys here:
1. Any main reason why you guys did not opt for XSS? I'm trying to reason out before I get one. smile.gif
I know some old physical Xbox game are dirt cheap but any other reasons?
2. I plan to use the Xbox as my entertainment centre. Meaning that I plan to play Netflix, hbo max and other streaming apps using XSX. How is the speed when changing apps? Will it overheat my XSX?
3. Any of you having regrets after getting XSX?

Thanx
*
1. more powarrrrr~~ 4k vs 2k
2. extremely fast, game also won't overheat the console, what makes you think puny streaming apps will overheat it?
3. best console I ever had

Thank you for all your replies.

Will definitely get one now! smile.gif
Really hope there's no heat issue. Last time, I had YLOD issue with PS3 phat, XB1 had power brick failure and I think its also related to heat problem.
PS4 will have that strong fan noise sometimes haha.
To @andrewtho, @greyshadow and @toytoy, I thank you.

After getting XsX, i've found out the fan noise from my PS4Pro has become unbearable
giving me even less excuses to switch it on nowadays

Yeah, mine is hot when leaving it instant-on. If yours is cool should be off ady.

Quite similar as mine. Im using Kingston A400 M.2 SSD not NVME type with Orico TCM2-C3 enclosure. I plugged it into the back of Xbox.
Did you try other ports? All giving same error?

One more thing, are most of you using charging base or rechargeable battery?

I was thinking for PS Controllers with built-in battery maybe makes more sense to use charging station.
For xbox, with the same amount of money I can buy Eneloop batteries with charger and batteries can use for other equipment.
If buy charging base only can charge xbox controllers. Seems not worth it. Also replacing Eneloop charger or batteries is easier.
what u all think?
*
Sanyo Panasonic Eneloop forever... tongue.gif

been using them since the X360 days until now, only the old Sanyo brand are losing their charges pretty fast after nearing a decade of abuse from me thumbup.gif

my batt cover are pretty easy to open, just sometimes can't remember the orientation of the batts when have sudden blur tongue.gif

Man, seeing you guys already playing Series consoles make me feel left out. It's already mid March and it doesn't look like GH is ever going to get hold of Singapore units with retail pricing.

Don't bother waiting for local store in bring in SG set at RRP, in SG it's still sold out instantly pretty much like the PS5
I can't wait anymore so fork out extra to get the imported set from Impulse



btw guys, Outriders will be on gamepass on day 1! rclxm9.gif
