Will you talk about this on Defining Duke?
i knew you were enjoying this title early
What is this a crossover episode
I actually love that Microsoft is putting alot of emphasis on backwards compatibility.
Because of gamepass. Watch dogs 2 and FC4 could be part of it in the near future when Ubisoft joins gamepass.
I would prefer they focused on new games personally
@@Aamonnater games take some time to actually finish
@@Aamonnater they are doing that too. Star Wars squadrons runs at 120fps etc. I expect all their first party games to be 60-120 and nearly all third party games to be 60 now. Except for some Ubisoft games like watch dogs legion
@@Aamonnater eh with games costing upwards to 70 pounds nowadays I approve of this approach especially to games I haven't tried out yet.
Really impressed with my Series X. Most games runs really smooth, and the console is so silent. And Quick Resume is fantastic. 5 seconds after turning console on you are in the game!
The quick resume thing keeps messing with me, I hadent played doom eternal in about a month and I jumped back on it and got thrown into my ultra nightmare run and died instantly 😂
Quick resume seemed to be a massive gimmick to me that I thought I would never care about but once I got a Series X it definitely enhances your experience .
Impressive console so far.

I hope they add the dead space trilogy to the FPS boost list. Phenomenal games with decent graphics even to this day, but that 60fps would be a game changer!
I just played through 1 and 2, both games still look amazing. 4k at 60fps would be perfect. Amazing how some 360 games still hold up with visuals. The sound is top notch in the first one on headphones or surround.
Great shout, am thinking about playing the trilogy again. Would be sweet to play it at 60fps.
I just started replaying dead space yesterday.
Agreed, im on DS2 right now. People have no idea how incredible Xbox back compat support is. Im playing Spec Ops the Line, too.
They're getting remastered, I'm guessing that's a given with the update.

GTA 5 needs a 60fps mode for the next-next gen version or at least enable 60fps via Backwards Compatibility mode on Series X/S.
*UPDATE:* It happened. GTA 5 is being *sold* (not a free upgrade as expected) for the 9th gen consoles that have a 60fps performance mode.
I mean, MS doesn't really need to do it as rockstar themselves are releasing a next gen patch.
@@santhoshsridhar5887 are they not releasing full price re-re master? Thought only gta online will be free
@@SpaceAce114 all it will be is a 60 fps boost. Rockstar have become greedy, they could of just updated current gta 5 instead they want to resell it just for a 60 fps boost.
@@XZ-III yes I know that I have it on pc aswell but it doesn't help that people on console are being forced to rebuy the same game just for a boost in fps, in my world that is an asshole thing to do by them
Rockstar would never allow it lol. 100% Rockstar is also the reason why we don't have Max Payne 3 yet on backward compat.
This is actually a huge deal. This requires no work from the developer and no updates to game code for the end user to download. Doing it this way can also potentially avoid things like licensing issues because the game code remains unchanged. Microsoft should get major props for continually sinking money and resources into making games people have already paid for even better.
Hopefully this can come to older 360 games as well. Would love to see the whole Gears of War series get 60fps modes.
Gears 2 it's already 60 fps since xbox one x
@@miguelcampos6830 Still locked at 30 fps sadly
Agreed, would love to replay them all at 60fps!
imagine read dead redemption running at 60 (and it already runs at native 4K on xbox one x and series x) jesus...
Alan Wake?
This is good, hopefully it forces devs to release something more than a remaster, 'uncapped fps' version of the same game for 60$
Hopefully the days of the lazy remaster are behind us.
Yea I really hate they call PC ports remastered versions on console.
Yeah give us the 7th gen back. The ps2 version of Transformers can’t compare to the 360 version. Used to have 10 versions of the same game and that shit was pretty cool.
Exactly what I hope about ps5 also I hope this legacy coding stops being used is much

@@SCORP1ONF1RE He's right though
Boggles my mind that there are people that actually say they can't tell the difference between 30 and 60 fps lol
I remember when I was 10 and playing games on my 360 and I could feel the difference between 30fps and 60fps, without even knowing what framerate was. I could feel it and see it, but I couldn't name why it was different.
It blows my mind people deny that there is a difference.
30 and 60 theres def a noticable difference but 60 to 120 is where i feel like its not even that much crazier except for like shooters
They say they can’t, but we all know they do see it. It’s denial bc they don’t have it and/or can’t get it.
They're idiots
@@royalwarlord2342 120 isn’t noticeable unless you played the game a lot before using it, on Gears 5 I feel a lot more responsive on 120 but if I’d never played it’d be tough to see

100% Lost Odyssey with a resolution boost too. One of the best JRPG's ever.

Blue Dragon is repetitive nonsense why do people keep mentioning that crap lol
Okay this is actually fucking awesome.

Im completely impressed by the Watchdogs 2 60fps tweak for XSS, my Ryzen 2600 (with an RX580) isn't able to sustain 60fps, not even at 900P and using console settings. Im completely CPU bottlenecked. XSS is a little beast.
iirc game favours Intel CPUs
watchdogs 2 is a performance nightmare anyway lol
@@slojcabronas858 Not my Intel CPU and my CPU can power through Cyberpunks mess
I think that's because Microsofts emulation can take advantage of the RDNA2 feature sets also. So it should definitely be able to run at a sustained 60fps.
How much fps you get with you ryzen 2600 ?
Imagine if they get every game made available with this lol I'd be down for weekly batches of new games, xbox can now promote pretty much ANY GAME from any era and ppl will get hyped because everything will run in 60fps/120fps
And if they can get this working, even on most titles, you would assume it’s only a matter of time before other companies figure out how to do this as well. It’s the kind of tech that eventually benefits the entire industry.
@@andyward8430 Either that, or it continues to put frame rate and performance at such a high level of demand within the community that game devs work harder to keep it at the forefront right at the beginning of all new game development.
If they do this I would like my money back for buying the remastered version of Control. Yeah I know they added Ray Tracing but nobody uses the quality mode when you have a smooth 60fps. And since this game is a Xbox one X Enhanced Title that means the The textures are the exact same as FPS mode on the New Remastered version

This is the kind of QoL improvement I'm here for. Apart from 'we've unlocked the entire OG Xbox library,' this is one of the best announcements I could have asked for. I know that because this is DX related, we can't expect to see it on PS5, but I hope they can come up with something as well as I'd love this generation to be all about taking your library with you as tech advances. The white-gloved results are fantastic, but having a blanket boost is incredible and the only answer for a large number of titles where the production companies are defunct.
Yeah it's nice to have a huge library of games that move with you but also get enhanced as you move
@@Valhura77 It's nice to get to experience a bunch of games I didn't have time to play but to get the modern benefits of better framerate and upscaling where applicable. Alice: Madness Returns was rough on 360 and PC has tons of issues because activation servers are gone. But I'm finally playing it because of the Series and its brute force solution to the lag.

Bruh resolution problem can be resolved by sitting a bit far from the screen 😂 But higher the FPS....always the better !!!
I used to be like that but when recently playing Spiderman Miles Morales on PS5 I find the 30fps ray trace mode horrible compared to the Performance RT mode for some reason. I’m finding it hard going back to 30fps games when the option is there
How did the OneS play SE4 in 3d mode, if it can't even run the game in 2d mode at 30fps? 3d mode must have been atrocious!

Is that the console's architecture or has to be integrated in the game engine as well?
@@acosadorempedernido3217 Xbox Series supports hardware accelerated machine learning, DirectML is an API Microsoft is working on to use ML to increase the resolution of games, similar to DLSS. When it's ready it will be used both on Xbox and PC. The advantage over something like DLSS is that it should be GPU agnostic, meaning it should work on AMD, Nvidia or even future Intel graphics cards. So it could become more widely integrated into game engines of different studios than even DLSS.

@Hallison Michel and new games at higher resolution.
Dude, don't be salty. this is a good thing... i'd applaud Sony too if they could somehow bring games like Bloodborne to 60 fps, as other modders have.
it takes an odd sort of gamer to not want to play anything before 2021.
@Hallison Michel Nostalgia is a thing. Especially when games look and play better than before - nice feature!
While I agree 900p is not good, it could mean by using this d3d injector style strategy we could get a resolution bump eventually. It all depends on how well the system can handle it. As you can see Sniper Elite 4 still has some drops on the Series S. If it means higher frames with the same resolution I’m down. 1080p with supersampling should still be the standard on the Series X if they pull this off though.
@@deathdealerx7505 we should also all note, according to the video above, only 1 game out of the 5 was at 900p. the next two were at 1080p 60 fps, one was at 1800p 60fps and super luckys tale ran at 4k 120 fps.
if anything, we should be incredibly excited if they can start bringing this fps work-around to the many One X enhanced games from 2017-2020. the promise of this is huge.

One thing that is interesting that I have been thinking about is how games that use temporal anti aliasing are going to benefit from the higher framerate. Since temporal anti-aliasing uses previous frame data to smooth out edges (and since it was such a well loved solution last gen), having more frames to reference will make it so there are less issues with visible ghosting of the old frames since the frames referenced will be closer together instead of larger jumps. So in some ways these framerate updates area actually going to have a cascading effect on the visual quality too. Super cool.
An odd batch of games but still a cool feature nonetheless
Lol

I might give Dragon Age: Inquisition a shot again if they can improve the fps to 60 on the series x. The sluggish frame rate on console kills that game and makes looting enemies, navigating menus and just moving feel really sluggish.

All these games came out like 5+ years ago mate. Suprise2...
@@faresothman7298 sniper elite 4 and ufc are not 5years old. And this is still impressive to have games become 60fps on console without any change done by the developper.
@@faresothman7298 Dude... this is a good thing. And as others have pointed out, some of these games came out very recently.
And this is also super promising for the batch of games that came out between 2017-2020 that were One X enhanced. (meaning resolutions from 1440-2160p)
Like, how can you look at this and be like... "still not good enough for me!"
ryse and sunset overdrive would be perfect picks
If they can do this to Okami HD I'm straight up buying an xbox
Even on PC this game is locked at 30 FPS sadly
@@Crimsongz Microsofts techinique for emulating 60 doesnt interact with a games code so unless pc display drivers get updated with a similiar feature, okami on Xbox has a better shot at 60 then pc
And seems like MS checks each game and isnt totally simple, so MS would have to control it on PC for each game and not something anyone could use.
@@TalkingMachine The way they do it can't be used in every game. For example things like animations playing twice as fast and other glitches have appeared in some of games they're testing.
@@UltraCasualPenguin But that really depends in how the game is coded. Most games can, but Okami probably not since it is a PS2 era game, and at that time game logic was tied to FPS. Dark Souls on PC for example depends on FPS for physics, so you can fall through the floor when going down ladders on 60 FPS, but the rest works fine
Damn I hope they add Far Cry 5.
And Sunset Overdrive too please
That would be awesome!
They most likely will cause they did it with far Cry 4, so it will be updated aswell as number 5 is way better in my opinion :)
@@thepicard83 - Hopefully because Far Cry 5 is the G.O.A.T.
Omg sunset overdrive would be amazing with a frame rate update.
@@freddywayne 3 is better. The rest just follow the same blueprint with less memorable encounter
I wish they’d do this for Final Fantasy XV’s “High” Mode. The “Lite” mode is so nice at 60fps but would love to not have to sacrifice the visual enhancements.
Damn. Never thought about that. FFXV in graphic mode and 60fps would be so freaking awesome!
Wish Deus Ex Mankind Divided would get an upgrade. It never recived a 1X patch so runs at 900p. It would be awesome to play it at 60fps and a higher resolution.
I know right!
Ya, I tried playing it for the first time and the 30fps actually just killed me
I have Ufc 4 and WD2 and it does not looks like half of what it looks in this video is there a update im missing or what???
And FYI I own the Xbox Series x
You need a system update. Just wait.
Interesting thats pretty awesome to see. It will be nice to see that list of games expanded.
Now, Far cry Primal in 60 fps would be perfect + Far cry 5
FC Primal does run 60 fps
I hope they increase resolution in the game.
Please give us 60 FPS on Battlefield Bad Company 2!
Yeah dude. And bf3 I'll be so damn happy.
Battlefield 1943 at 60FPS, a man can dream
BFBC3 would be better. x.x
I played through that recently on my X1X, great game, I hope the rumors are true they have a 3rd in the works in addition to BF6
Still waiting for The Witcher 3, RDR2, and Quantum Break FPS boost.
Witcher 3 is already 60
@@cristianhidaldo5129 Only XSX
@@cristianhidaldo5129 didn't know that. I thought CDPR is going to release an upgrade patch
@@XGlite015 They are..."soon"
Backwards compatibility is one of my favorite things about the Series X. Glad to see them still improving upon it. Hopefully they add more OG/360 playable titles as well.
Idk how Nintendo is always seen as the good guy... Nintendo is charging $60 for skyward sword which is basically a resolution boost... and Microsoft is proposing to do this for the entire backlog 100% for free. This just made the series s + gamepass the best deal in the history of gaming.
The difference is really huge between 30 and 60fps I can see it immediately. The 30fps look like a sideshow...
If 30fps games look like a slideshow to you try switching out of game mode for those games and they will look fine. I have to do that or else I can't play at 30fps as it drives me crazy.
@@wg8561 I experienced 240fps and I can see a difference between 144hz and 240hz. I could never play at 30fps I even saw a HUGE difference between 30 and 60fps in this video watching from my smartphone. Is so noticeable I can't believe people don't see the difference is even noticeable in this video from Digital Foundry.
@@wg8561 you mean motion smoothing? That messes up your image clarity by introducing blurry artifacts all over. Use it for movies alone.
@@ktmdante1826 no I mean actual game mode or low latency mode. At least on Samsung tvs I've noticed playing 30fps games in that mode it just looks stuttery. If I play that same 30fps game in standard its fine. For 60fps games I play in game mode.
@@ktmdante1826 by the way I would never use motion smoothing for movies. It makes them look like soap operas. I only watch movies in 24fps.
RUclips needs a 120fps mode what the hell sup with that
Probably the fact that most people only have access to 30hz and 60hz screens. 120hz isn't quite a standard yet out side of higher tier monitors, phones, and TVs.
@@smittyvanjagermanjenson182 There are 30hz screens??? I have never seen one in my life.
idk bandwith being extremely expensive and not worth it? 🤷♂️
@@RightWingRadioShow Just curious, do you just think watching youtube videos in 120hz isn't worth it or do you think playing games at 120fps isn't worth it also?
@@LeeBlackburn Difference is a video game is already downloaded vs RUclips you're streaming which is major.
FC4 was such a underrated game, 60fps would be nice. would definetly give it another play through
It came after FC3 which for many was the peak of the series, so it wouldnt get the same praise it would if FC4 released before FC3
Its not underrated
Remember farcry3 is the best farcry game. And after that game people hoped farcry4 would be a sequel to farcry 3 as people were loving vaas more then anything.
But farcry 4 turned else...
And ngl its a decent game.
3 was still better
I’ve been looking forward to this... twice the FPS double the fun
Welcome to 2015 lol
Ah yes, a man of prequel memes culture
One of the many joys of upgrading your gpu/cpu or building a new gaming pc for me has always been going back to the games I've enjoyed, never got to play and were difficult to run and playing through with better graphics and better framerates. I'm glad console owners get to experience the same thing with some of these games.
@@TerraWare same, the transition between 30 fps to 60 feels so good
@@Jsteeeez
Welcome to 500 bucks, and not 2000 lol.
THANK YOU SO MUCH DF AND MICROSOFT
This has so much potential! If they also get FX SuperResolution working on the titles that didn't get an One X Upgrade, it's be perfect.
Just thought that also.
maybe they will allow this fps boost to shadow of the tomb raider to make the game play at 2160p at 60fps instead of 30fps on the xbox series x
I'm playing through the game rn. Just play on the performance option
@@Odie50000 that mode is only 1080p 60fps since that update was made for the xbox one x
@@joelschwartz4679 Yeah true, you're right. I just thought you were implying there was no way to get 60. Unfortunately, I wish the "Enhanced Graphics" like on Rise of the Tomb Raider were 60fps on the SX. All of the extra shadowing and textures makes the game look noticeably better but I keep playing in 60fps because I prefer muh frames.
Maybe the devs of that game will fix the horrible input latency on Xbone
Whoa this is cool af , gonna use this on my series x
That's cool, but it would be nice if they actually started releasing new backwards compatible Xbox OG and 360 games again.
I'm waiting on a few 360 games, hopefully they start the program up again this year.
@@kyle-zm6dq crysis 2 and 3 60 fps!!!!
@@bhniyamohamadhosseini7781 I'd play through them again in 60fps for sure
I would be so happy to get Remember Me.
It seems they have ported all the titles they could get permission or feasible to port.
I want to play Ninja Gaiden at 120 fps.
MS doing some really cool things
Hopefully they do the same with RDR
I agree, lets get Sonic Generations going too!
Who plays Sonic games anymore. I quit Sonic back in the 1990s
@@Keepskatin Sonic Mania was great.
Hoping for Forza Horizon 2, Sunset Overdrive, and Lost Odyssey to get a boost.
The FPS Boost feature is very useful and has been a breath of new life for some games. Great video by Rich and Linneman again.
this is really impressive, cant wait for more games with fps boosts. Kingdom Come and Ryse would be a good to see how the cry engine 3 runs with this method
Hopefully they continue to work with it. Far Cry 4 and Watchdogs 2 should be able to hold 60 on a true 1440p using the Series X.
@Steps With this method, I know. By continue to work with, I mean through a small patch or whatever is needed. Modifying the resolution in most modern games is normally a trivial modification.
@@TheCgOrion they can't patch the game because for that they need access to the code of the game which is with the developer. What they are doing is using a loop hole by brute forcing their way to increase the fps of the game.
I really hope we get Red Dead Redemption. Even at 30fps on 360 that's an incredible game. Especially incredible at higher resolution on Xbox One X.
I'll keep playing it even without an fps boost. I wonder what other games this will be done to? Thanks for the video, guys.
Twitter fanboys-ResetEra-NeoPedo are on meltdown. Precious
ResetEra are upset about... higher frame rates? I know they're a pathetic bunch but that sounds bizarre.
@@MercerVerse they are upset cause xbox.
@@ioannisdenton Ah, I see. Why do they have a thing against Xbox? I personally really respect Xbox, and I use PlayStation mainly.
@@MercerVerse you are a sane eell balanced person compared to these "ma plastic box is bettah"
I wanna see the same improvements in framerates on more Xbox 360 titles. The Orange Box and Left 4 Dead 2 both received a 4K patch by Microsoft and they would be perfect candidates I feel.
Really great work DF. Sniper Elite 4 is defo worth checking on Game Pass, not sure if that's New Super Lucky's Tale or just Super Lucky's Tale on Game Pass but if it's New that'll be cool too check out aswell. Hopefully more FPS Boost Titles will be getting Dropped soon.
Man, MS is killing it with the BC...Id love to see X360 racing games like Split/Second and Blur bumped up to 60fps.
Hopefully the originally watch dogs will have a FPS boost! That’s my favorite game in the series
What is this wizadry? MS deserve some real recognition here. Well done. Original game code with no developer needed to patch the game. Pretty incredible stuff by the Direct X team.
You guys remember when cyberpunk was a thing 😂 man that game really came and went
Who?
@@mjc0961 I have it played around 2 hours on XSX, what I played I liked, but I will wait for the XSX upgrade before jumping back in, they are constantly rolling out updates too, so by the time I get around to it, it will hopefully not be too bad.
