Well, it seems as if they didn't choose anything as a winner and that it was only fake but to talk about Quantum Break vs. as example Uncharted, maybe the faces look better in Uncharted or the textures of a car or whatever but Quantum Break with this changing environment while using the powers has clearly also some graphical stuff gams like Uncharted don't have and this does also cost processing power and is a part of the graphics. How much weight you give stuff like that is personal preference I guess. 

It's the same with super linear vs. open world games. A super linear game can look better but does this really mean that it is more impressive graphically? If a game is 10x more open and looks only 10% worse, then the open wolrd game is maybe much more impressive graphically but I don't think there is a formula which really tells us the 100% truth about "the best graphics"

You're right if looking at uncharted/2/3 but uncharted 4 is basically open. Devs confirmed there's multiple different routes to take with jeep. Also not sure if you noticed but Unharted 4 foes have advanced destruction, if you watch the demo everything it moving and bouncing, if you hit something in a vehicle it breaks apart, much like in Arkham Knight. Actually just like Arkham Knight, but on the shooting parts everything is coming apart, your cover wont be cover for long after it gets damaged etc.

From the demo's I've seen Uncharted 4 is a lot more open than Quantum Break. Looks better + more open = how on earth did it not win? xD

Posted video incase you wanted to check many of the claims I made in my comment aha :)

My part about open world didn't have anything to do with Quantum Break or Uncharted, just in general when people talk about games like Fallout being ugly and stuff like that. It maybe look worse as a linear game but that doesn't mean that linear games are more impressive graphically since it's much easier to achieve these graphics then.

Talking about Uncharted and Quantum Break I already said what I think about it. Uncharted looks "prettier" but it doesn't have crazy transforming environments when you use super powers which I guess takes a lot of power and is also an impressive part of graphics. If Quantum Break wouldn't have this, the game itsefl could be prettier so that I find these "game xy has better graphics" discussion already pretty useless as long as they aren't similar (like Fifa vs. Pro Evolution Soccer).

Graphics is not only about how pretty a game is.

Naval Strike is the EA Access free DLC. Not Night Operations.

I know but last I checked Night Operations is free as well. For everyone.

Borderlands” Coming to Xbox One Backward Compatibility

By Xbox Wire Staff posted September 03, 2015 at 9:00 AM

Borderlands will be supported on Xbox One Backward Compatibility when it launches publicly this November and is available in Preview today, expanding the growing library of Xbox 360 titles available on Xbox One and joining the greatest games lineup in Xbox history.

If you own Borderlands, you’ll be able to play it on your Xbox One and you can carry over your previously-saved files, game add-ons and achievements. Developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K, bringing Borderlands to Xbox One Backward Compatibility lets you dive back into the loot-filled world of Pandora and pick up your adventure right where you left off on Xbox 360. Battle your way through the world of Pandora with Claptrap, your ever-talkative robot companion, and your fellow Vault Hunters on Xbox Live, no matter which Xbox console they are playing on.

“We are proud to support Xbox One Backward Compatibility by bringing the complete, original Borderlands to Xbox One, including all downloadable content,” said 2K President Christoph Hartmann. “We know many of our fans have put in dozens, even hundreds, of hours exploring the world of Pandora on their Xbox 360, and now they can continue their adventures on Xbox One.”  

Xbox One Backward Compatibility is all about giving you the ability to play the games you love most from both generations in one place for free. We’ll continue to have more updates on new titles supported by Xbox One Backward Compatibility as we get closer to launch with more than 100 Xbox 360 titles available at launch in November and hundreds more on the way.

Suppose now it gets to preferences, Uncharted on a visual basis looks better kind of hard to argue against that. Quantum breaks environment moulding is empressive, but I'd say Uncharted 4's open destructive environments coupled by being a better looking visually wins it out for me.

Horizon is open world and that.. well yeah is more impressive.



There's only 2 races: White and 'Political Agenda'
2 Genders: Male and 'Political Agenda'
2 Hairstyles for female characters: Long and 'Political Agenda'
2 Sexualities: Straight and 'Political Agenda'

Is there anyway we can download away from the console with EA Access?

Will those BC games be available for purchase from xbox live store? I hope so, wouldn't mind buying some digitally.

I'm guessing once BC is fully released the games will be available on the X1 store. Worst case scenario is you would have to go on the Xbox marketplace online and buy it through the 360 and it would show up on your X1 in the ready to install section. But I'm sure they'll put them on the X1.

Do you have EA Access? You can check store.xbox.com and sign in, then type in Naval Strike and check. I know you can't download vault games this way but since it's free DLC it might be available this way. I already downloaded it so I can't see if it works.

The email I got from EA was you had to download through the EA Access app on XB1 to get it for free so that's what I did
