Despite being the weaker sibling, Microsoft’s Xbox Series S still has enough horsepower to enhance older games in various ways, such as improved frame rates, faster loading times, and automatic HDR. Microsoft demonstrated the former with a new video today, showing how the system turns Bethesda’s Fallout 4 into a “buttery smooth” experience.



While the comparison is a real snoozer for PC gamers, this looks like a very cool upgrade for console peasants who have been forced to cope with sub-60 frame rates. It isn’t clear whether the Xbox Series S will be able to manage this at 1440p, though (the video maxes out at 1080p).

Oh that's not 4k my friend, that is 1080p (maybe 1440p, the video tops out at 1080p, not certain)
 
Isn’t that game like 5 years old now? Is that supposed to be impressive?
