Enhanced games we’ve tried definitely look and perform better on the One X, but it’s often hard to suggest they perform $500 better on a 4K display (or even $250 better, if you’re coming into the Xbox ecosystem fresh).

While Microsoft promises similar enhancements for dozens of games are in the pipeline (including 70 titles that should be enhanced “right around release”), most publishers seem to need more time to adapt their titles to use the full power out of the system. That list excludes high-profile exclusives like Forza Motorsport 7 and Halo 5, as well as major cross-console comparisons like Rise of the Tomb Raider or Middle-Earth: Shadow of War. We’ve only been able to test a relative handful of games that have gotten a downloadable patch providing the full “Xbox One X enhanced” treatment as of press time. When it comes to seeing the value of that hardware on the screen, though, the promise of the Xbox One X is currently unfulfilled-at the very least, it's incomplete.
