To get the most out of the new generation, and not spend an arm and a leg. Would a guy be better off looking into monitors or TVs? Its for my daughters room, so having the biggest isn't an issue

Gears Tactics will run at 4K/60fps on the Xbox Series X with a choice of 60 or 30fps for the cinematics — “not for any performance reason but more for just personal taste,” McRae says. The Series S will run the game at 1440p/60fps, while the One X will have the option for 4K/30fps or 1440p/60fps performance mode, and the One S is at 1080p/30fps.

Uncompressed Scorn images..

I haven't seen anything about this game but with these images it reminds me of the original Prey. I haven't been a fan of FPS games for a long time but I'm keeping my eye on this one.

Looking like they are changing their mind on it, as recently as last year's X019 Phil Spencer didn't see it as a focus https://stevivor.com/features/interviews/vr-not-a-focus-of-project-scarlett-says-phil-spencer/

New Digital Foundry video on testing the Auto HDR



Also IGN has a hands on with The Falconeer

Watched the auto HDR video on my tv. Really like this feature and some of the games looked great.
Hope Sony implements something like this as well. I'm replaying Bloodborne right now and auto HDR would be perfect for this game since it is a dark game.

Monitors are usually better but there is a caveat here. HDMI 2.1 is needed to run the Xbox at its max potential of 4k@120hz. A lot of gaming monitors have left 2.1 off as a feature since most gamers are using DisplayPort (a different kind of cable). Even for TVs this is a bit of conundrum, as HDMI 2.1 is a very new standard. It’s only been around for about 2 years now. Whichever you buy, I suggest researching to make sure it supports 2.1. This goes for anyone trying to get either of the new systems

Really appreciate the input
