Microsoft's Xbox One X is already a reality since it was officially available for sale yesterday A machine of which Xataka's colleagues have already carried out an interesting analysis and from which much is expected, as it is currently the most powerful game console on the market.
However, and despite the fact that the numbers on paper are always very good, to know the true performance, the important thing is the games. And in the case of the Xbox One X, for now the one that has best known how to take advantage of the full potential of the new machine has been Forza Motorsport 7 which already has with its corresponding patch to improve performance.A title that will soon be joined by another member of the Forza saga such as Forza Horizon 3.

"As in this case with the term Enhanced, Xbox One X games will have a series of seals, of logos that will determine which enhancements they includeand be careful, because there is small print here that must be read:"
- 4K Ultra HD: Games that can be played in 4K resolution, both those that are played natively and those that are changing between resolution dynamically or those that apply the upscaling checkerboarding technique.
- HDR: Those that support HDR10.
- Xbox One X Enhanced: Games with this description take advantage of that power, but without specifying which method they will use, level of detail , better frame rates per second, or other visual enhancements.
And it is that we remember that the members of this list are characterized by being able to offer the possibility of viewing the images in native 4K resolution among other improvements, although and unlike its brother of the circuits,here the fps could be limited to 30 frames per second, far from the 60 fps that is achieved in Motorsport 7 and that makes it a visual delight.
