I am nothing but impressed with the TV already so that says alot...but I did pay a pretty penny for it.

I will be for sure picking up Battlefront II and let you guys know my initial impressions of it. I was impressed with how well Battlefront looked on my old tv with Xbox One so getting pretty excited to see what the One X can do.

Just got my shipping notice from BestBuy for my Xbox One X, hoping for a prompt delivery tomorrow morning. Will let you all know my initial impressions on any games that I am able to upgrade to 4k.

Anyone else pre-order the One X?

Yeah mine’s pre-ordered with EB. Also looking forward to it, and hoping the enhanced game support is substantial in the first month or so. I love my PS4 Pro but I’m hoping the Scorpio will squeeze a bit more out of the OLED display.

I have a pre-order with EB. I hope developers start supporting the 4k consoles better. I have been disappointed with the lack of support for the PS4 Pro to date.

I'm not sure if knowing the context to that would make it better or worse.

All I’ve sparked up so far is Gears 4 and it’s of course quite impressive in 4K HDR. Going to try Wolfenstein II next I think. As an original Xbox fan it did make me a bit giddy unwrapping the Scorio edition, complete with its packaging designed to somewhat mimick the OG machine. The hardware itself is nice and compact, runs fairly quietly, and is plenty heavy for its size.

Never has a console looked so small and felt so heavy. Feels like you are lifting a big brick. It feels more than double the weight of the Xbox One S. Not sure if it's the liquid cooling or revised power supplies but it has to be the heaviest console yet.

I will get mine today, as it missed a connection in Vancouver ugh. My first foray into 4k will either be ESO: Morrowind, Diablo 3 or Halo 5: Guardians. Have my full library loaded on to my 8TB Game Hub all ready to go!

Can't wait!

Wolfenstein 2 looks amazing in 4K. I'm a little bummed that HDR support is lagging still.

Nice, I'am using the 55inch LG OLED. Can't wait for developers to truly harness the power of the One X.

Thinking of buying Forza 7, as this was championed by MS for the One X. Anyone played it on the One X yet?

I keep forgetting to pick up Forza 7. I've been having too much fun demolishing the Nazis in Wolfenstein II.

Yeah there's no doubt it's a solid improvement over the current consoles as it's near high end PC quality. I still a little disappointed that initial game loading times are still balls slow.
