Xbox Series S

Side by Side Comparison Technical Notes
Despite being from the Xbox 360 era, the now first party title gets a serious upgrade for both of the next generation consoles. Both are benefitting from FPS Boost which is automatically applied. That takes the traditional 30fps performance of the game and takes it up to a smooth 60fps which is ever so fluid.

Past that, both consoles are given an increase to the resolution quality. This makes the Xbox Series X run the game at a 4k resolution with the Xbox Series S running the game at 1440p. Both look quite sharp, but there is still quite an upgrade and difference between the two in regards to the clarity and detail of the world. The performance between the two comes across as smooth for both.


Description/Synopsis
Enter the wasteland and attempt to find out what happened to your father. It’s your first time out there, leaving the vault and the awesome Tunnel Snakes behind. You’ll need to use skills, tactics and style to survive out there as you explore a rather hostile world in an attempt to find your father and generally save the day if you so choose. It’s all about big decisions, exploration and in general discovery.

You can make whatever sort of character you want to, and shape the world around your interactions with the folks that inhabit it. You’ll never be sure what you’ll come across, from hidden mysteries to exciting story lines that are just out there waiting for you to come across them. Then there are DLC packs that further the story in many unique ways and allow you to visit some exciting areas.

Hopefully the comparison was helpful in understanding the changes that are being presented between these options. It can help greatly to have a quick visual presentation that’s lined up for a faster viewing.
