I still see alot of people assuming that MS is going to be scaling up from XB1 to XSX on their first year 1st/2nd party games. Why do people seem so sure of that? Most of the cross-gen games Microsoft released at the beginning of the current gen were scaled down from XB1 to run on 360, like Forza Horizon 2, Titanfall, and Rise of the Tomb Raider, 360 didn't hold any of those games back as a result of scaling down instead of scaling up. You really think MS is going to design games like Halo Infinite and Forza Motorsport 8 for the XB1 and then scale them up to run on XSX? That doesn't match with logic, what the leakers are saying, or with Microsoft's statement about Halo Infinite (they said it was built from the ground up to take advantage of XSX). 

Its probably because we haven't heard anything about separate versions being developed by different studios. MS is talking about scalable graphics like we're seeing on pc. That's a bit different than an outsourced Forza running on a completely different engine for the Xbox360 version.
