Do we know anything about how "non-enhanced" games will run on the X. Will there be a "boost" mode?
Free texture filtering, and better frame rates (where they were unlocked, up to max), and higher res (if they were designed around dynamic resolution, up to max)

16xAF
Highest fps possible to be more stable
Higher res if game uses dynamic scaling
Faster loading/streaming assets using the extra 4GB of ram to store assets
Faster HDD shorter loading times
Once again, this list is expected to grow by launch.So they were able to get an exclusive DB FighterZ marketing deal for a couple of months, but they weren't able to reach Tekken Team and ask to upgrade the mess that is T7 on XBO?
Goddammit.
And Prey. Two of my favorite games this generation.
Dishonored 2 is getting it so Prey is probably in the works as well.
Why is AC Origins in this "true 4K" video while it's been confirmed it's not "true 4K"?

Anything change? or just MS being MS?

AFAIK, "True 4K" is their marketing buzzword for games that go higher than 1080p. It was never a real way to tell what games were going for native "4K". The only other time I've seen the term "True 4K" being used was to point out that consumer televisions use a derivative of the tech used in the cinema and as a result aren't capable of "True 4K".
it doesn't say "True 4K". It has the "4K" badge. Explanation see below ...
If a game has the 4K badge is can mean one of the following
native 2160p
2160p CBR
Dynamic 2160p
but it always means it has a 2160p frame buffer output and is not upscaled to 2160p.

The following screenshot was taken from news.xbox.com
It does say "Introducing true 4K gaming" before showing it.
And what do you mean by "4K Badge"? Is it the one in lower right corner? Because it's the same as Forza which is true 4K.
Yes I refer what is in the lower right corner.
Edit (referencing your edit):
Not misleading. You will learn at release. Game renders at native 2160p max and dynamically scaled down using CBR.
This isn't correct. AC Origins is CBR 2160c, not standard 2160p. And CBR isn't any kind of scaling technique, certainly not downscaling.Not misleading. You will learn at release. Game renders at native 2160p max and dynamically scaled down using CBR.
I really thought that was already confirmed.
(1) This isn't correct. AC Origins is CBR 2160c, not standard 2160p.
(2) Also, just because Microsoft have clearly delineated their intent when using "4K Ultra HD" or "true 4K" doesn't mean people aren't misled. There are many threads on GAF where both terms are used as synonyms for native 4K, when that's definitely not what Microsoft intends. (Matters aren't helped when marketing by other companies does use "true 4K" to mean native, like the Gamescom World of Tanks trailer.)
Digital Foundry will be in meltdown testing all these games.
How does the list compare to ps4 pro?

(1) If you really so sure about it that my statement is incorrect prepare yourself for a surprise!
(2) Interesting that the "True 4K" triggers so many people. I really don't understand it. The Box plays games in 4K, plays video streams in 4K, records gameplay in 4K, plays BluRays in 4K. So for all content available (except the HDMI In passthrough) it is a "true 4K" output device (explained from a pure marketing POV).
I am certain you are wrong that CBR is being used as a downscaling algorithm. This is literally impossible given how CBR works.(1) If you really so sure about it that my statement is incorrect prepare yourself for a surprise!
Let's leave aside how condescending and pitiless your sarcastic use of "trigger" is. The use of "true 4K" terminology doesn't trigger people, it just confuses them. Microsoft have clearly stated what they mean by it, but as you say what they mean is a compound trait. The part that applies to games isn't unique to One X, and the parts about video playback aren't either. Multiplex characteristics like this can be tough to keep straight.(2) Interesting that the "True 4K" triggers so many people.
The One X 2017 lineup is currently smaller than Pro's 2016 lineup, but the Microsoft list also isn't final yet. More titles will be added before One X launch.How does the list compare to ps4 pro?
(1) I know the output is 2160p but the game is not "true 4K". Assassin's Creed Origins is 2160cbr. Just because their wording is "technically" correct, it doesn't make it less misleading.
(2) Phil Spencer also talked about "true 4K" as a different thing than PS4Pro which uses CBR.
Phil Spencer: I look at Pro as more of a competitor to S than I do to Xbox One X. This is a true 4K console.

Witcher 3, nice.
But no Doom? For shame.
maybe EA got the OK ? maybe its listed their by mistake and Sony ninjas will be all over it ? it really depends on the marketing deals they have here.
if Sony has the marketing for it as well. it shouldn't be listed really.
there is no bad blood between ACTI and MS not to support the one X. it will most definitely support it.
Of course the game could be different at release than it was at E3. But no matter what the situation ends up being, your statement was wrong. That is certain.My last response for today:
(1) Be certain...
No.P.S. Have you pre-ordered a Xbox One X?
Doom was part of the announcement at E3 to Im surprised to see it missing from the list.
I think that this could be a good place to ask my question:
Games with Gold Deals:
Fallout 4 for 20 or Final Fantasy XV for 25.
Both games will officially get One X support. Which one should I get? I'm a big Fallout 3 fan, but I'm leaning more towards Final Fantasy XV because it is different.
FFXV is quite different from what you'd be used to. It's unique. I haven't played an FF game since XIII and i've had so much fun with XV.I think you should go for it. It will also look amazing on the 1X.I think that this could be a good place to ask my question:

I can only get one of them. Tight budget.Get both! Fallout 4 is very good in my eyes. FF15 I still have to play so I cannot judge it (waiting for the One X to play it).

After seeing Mass Effect on PS4 Pro I'm pretty desperate for a One X patch before I buy it. Enjoyed the trial but looks like the chances of a One X patch are slim.No ME: Andromeda and Deus Ex: MD? Those two would benefit greatly from One X's specs. Hope they get updated down the line.
It's rather odd because Battlefield 1 was apart of their E3 supported games announcement, wonder what's up with these inconsistencies.Battlefield 1 & SW:BF 2 better show up on that list before Nov. 7th.

I am super happy about The Witcher though. I can already tell this is the spark that will let me push past my completionist disorder and finish that game. I should pick up the DLCs while I'm at it.
Having a quick look at a PS4 Pro list with minor to major changes these stand out. I hope some of these can get done, decided to backlog several just incase.
