Damn FFXIII is almost 31GB.

Tried FFXIII-2 and it looks pretty good. However the text is clearly in a much lower resolution. Shame they couldn't change it.

Yeah XIII in notorious for big file size and on PC it's 60GB compared to 20-25GB of XIII-2 and Lightning Returns. I'm going to set all 3 downloading before I go to bed as that makes it around 40-45GB to download on Xbox :)

Just found this image on Reddit for a quick comparison and it looks pretty good on X1X.

Damn looks like the 16x anitrosopic filtering for Xbox One X is in full effect here.

I'm just surprised that FFXIII is that big. Considering the game came on 3 360 discs, the file size should be around 21GB IF all of the discs were full of data. Of course BC games add a little to that number, but usually not much more than 1GB. FFXIII-2 for example is 8.2GB, so not much more than the original game. (Don't know the exact file size but around 7GB I'd say)

As I mentioned before I just quickly started FFXIII-2 and did two screenshots:

Oh them screenshots look nice and clean!

Yeah it's usually just the disc's it download +500-600MB for BC so that extra size for FFXIII is a little weird.

I don't know if it's possible but could they of patched in higher quality cutscenes from the PC version (if they exist) with that larger file size or anything along those lines?

Here is a long gameplay session of Crackdown 3's Wrecking Zone. I think it looks pretty damn fun. Even a few achievements pop up during the session.

Am I the only one who seems to be concerned Beth hasn't even hinted at what would happen to TES?

What do you mean? Did I miss something? Neither Obsidian nor inXile worked on TES, inXile and Obsidian were both formed from the remnants of the studio that made Fallout 1 and 2, and Obsidian made Fallout New Vegas for Bethesda after Bethesda bought the Fallout rights, but that partnership ended long ago, Bethesda has since said that they don't like the idea of an outside developer working on their series so we were never going to get a new Fallout developed by Obsidian. 

Or maybe you are referring to the lack of a mouse and keyboard support announcement for Skyrim on XB1? I doubt they will take the time to do that personally. 

I am referring to how long we've gone without a single announcement of a TES V...

Seems that is the case they got the higher fidelity cutscenes from Square Enix and added them into the game for BC on the X.

yeah that explains it. Would've been my guess as well.

Just started the Battlefield V trial and played the intro mission. The game looks incredible.
Even better with HDR and in motion of course.

Man, the first episode of Life is Strange 2 was disappointing. I hope the story kicks off later.

But the writing felt off. I don't know how to explain this in English but I just couldn't buy any of the events. If you're going to add all their strong political views then at least do it right. It was all a big miss now.
