      I wouldn't actually return it to GS but rather take it in and get them to redo it with the 50.00 off.

      Was just afraid after BF no one would have an Elite so grabbing one now.
      I do not believe BF deals apply for price matching..>But could be wrong...Specially at GS

      If I were you I buy now as these consoles will be sold for 450 easily black friday

        IMO Fallout is great on Xbox One though...I'm not someone who always notices the stuff DF does anyways, so take it for what you will. Not an apologist, just a "normal gamer"
        Yea that is cool man...Gamers this gen have become like PC gamers..

        All about specs.....Not enough about great games

          Yeah (surprisingly.. to me and not saying in general) the Elites seemingly are getting sold rather quickly around here.

          What I'd do is take it back on BF (to the guys I know well at GS in town who always do me right .. ) and I know they'd redo it for me.. IF I want to go to that bother lol

            So it seems that Digital Foundry has been exposed as Sony guys.

            One dude John who did the Halo 5 and Tomb Raider tech review and was very harsh on the game itself and tech review

            Check out his twitter response to a guy who questioned him

              That's one guy at Digital Foundry, and the head guy, Leadbetter, has certainly been accused of being very pro Microsoft.

                DF doesn't bring much up the table imo. I can't stand how every tech analysis they do is just repeated with 30 similar articles. I feel all I hear about for gaming news nowadays is companies running articles about small frame rate hiccups or resolution issues.

                  Fallout looks and plays outstanding on the xbox one. I have very very minimal if any frame rate issues. Playing on a 1tb 7200 external drive

                      Studbucket, if you're still here. I was just coming on to ask a quick question. I am in the NXOE and have all the most recent updates. Just watched the Patriots on Sunday and the picture was all grainy.

                      I blamed FOX Sports. Now watching Netflix and it is still all grainy. I have done a hard reboot. All my settings on my cable box match that of xbox one.

                      When I play games there is no grainyness. TV has taken a hit somewhere.

                      Any suggestions you may have would be great. Thank you

                      I have a 50" Insigina Tv. Looks great gaming but recently tv/netflix taken a hit.

                        Here's a quote from DF and their analysis of Tomb Raider -

                        Ultimately, Rise of the Tomb Raider feels like a genuine step forward in terms of rendering technology, with significant improvements made to the last generation engine. The Foundation tech itself is highly capable and delivers an impressive looking game with huge, densely populated environments. The quality of its character rendering combined with great animation and environmental interactions helps form a deeper bond between the player and the surroundings, while improved lighting and effects work creates a more nuanced presentation.

                        However, it's clear that both image quality and performance aren't exactly where they need to be and that ultimately takes the shine off an otherwise beautiful game. Hitting 1080p is important but without a high quality anti-aliasing solution in place, results can still feel underwhelming in places - despite the game's many visual triumphs elsewhere. Surprising as it may seem, sub-native games such as Ryse offer superior image quality despite operating at a lower resolution - raw pixel count is only one component of the visual presentation, after all. The fact that performance often feels rather unstable throughout only serves to suggest that perhaps pushing for a full 1080p on Xbox One in this case has taken its toll.
                        Based on those who know a lot more about the technical aspects than I do, it seems that Crystal Dynamics would have been better off going with 900p and including anti-aliasing as opposed to 1080p and no anti-aliasing.

                        One quote from a user below is actually something that I agree with -

                        A 720p bluray rip looks better than no AA 1080p computer graphics, so yeah. We have a long way to go and I hope next gen (Ps5 and Xbox Ultra) does not push for 4k 30fps but 1080p 60fps with 4x MSAA + temporal antialising + nuclear fission.
                        It seems like the other aspects are far more important for games than resolution. Of course, the following applies more to multi-platform games but the tech analysis usually shows how good the games are optimized for the respective consoles. Two years in, developers should know how to work around certain aspects by now. In the case of Fallout 4 and the zero frames per second issue, it's way more on Bethesda, their failure to optimize the game correctly and their continued use of the crappy ID Tech engine which from what I have read, is arguably the worse game engine that's still being used.

                        Both consoles have the specs but it's up to the developers to get the most out of both but should factor in what's more important - resolution, frames per second, anti-alising, etc. Out of the bunch, resolution seems to be the least important but yet, it's developers main focus which I honestly don't understand.

                        As for Tomb Raider, my friend played it last night for about 30 minutes and he said that it looks great and might be the best looking game thus far. One more day to go and I'll finally be able to play the game for myself instead of reading about it!!!

                          Re: Xbox One

                          One thing that I personally take for granted is that the PS4 version will probably be slightly better than Xbox One. Also a given that a solid PC is better than consoles. I'm ok with that.

                          Digital Foundry stuff is interesting to read, but doesn't really impact me much because I play a game if it's fun or not overall, not just a graphics decision.

                          They kinda spout the same stuff each review cause it's all pretty similar.

                              So an otherwise "beautiful game" is ruined by "image quality" and "performance".

                              So, is the game not beautiful?

                              Right now that reads to be the same as "that beautiful super model is ruined by her ugly face".
