    Uncharted 4 and Uncharted Lost Legacy were stunning experiences in HDR. And I have to agree, HZD blew my mind when I bought my B6 back then.

      Uncharted Lost Legacy is amazing in Hdr! I could not belive the diference. God of war is also jaw dropping but Spiderman beats them all. When i showed Spiderman to my friends in Hdr they culd not believe the level of details and how amazing it looks. They watched the gameplay jaw dropping! :-)

    My personal HDR favorite is Shadow of the Tomb Raider. I was playing it in SDR when I purchased my new HDR set... I had my wife with me who'd watched me play some of it it, and we turned HDR on... even she was like "WOW". And I have an LED set, not even OLED. It took this hazy brown wild I was in and transformed it into this colorfully green and vibrant jungle. I could see snakes and bugs that I couldn't pick out before and everything was just a stunning difference.

    One game that personally surprised me was actually State of decay 2 when I made the switch to HDR.
    The lighting in interiors is so much better with HDR enabled on that game. And especially nighttime which originally turned everything pitch Black. Despite what your brightness level was set to, the game's nights were just pitch black and everything was crunched in darkness and you just couldn't see anyting.
    But now with HDR enabled you can finally make out a detail and nights look like what you would actually expect a dark night to look like.

    My HDR TV isn't that high end, it probably sits somewhere between the HDR 400 and 600 specifications in terms of performance, but there are some HDR games that really do transform how the game looks. It's hard to describe the difference, but it's like a veil has been lifted, like when you turn HDR on and off you suddenly realise just how grey-ish and flat SDR looks, and that's on not even a very good HDR TV! People talk about how to get a good HDR experience you need the full spec, 1000 nits peak brightness, full array local dimming, all that jazz, but I think it's possible to have a decent experience on a lower end TV, as long as your TV tonemaps the image correctly you can get a very vivid image, if not a very bright one.

      It's implementation of HDR is underwhelming at best, and comes across like the early 2000s brown games of that era. Nothing really pops and there is huge black crush (just go into a nest cave).

    If you don't have the new Range of HDR, but have an Xbox One, you can still experience a HDR like effect by having the console output more color and increase the color space on your TV through the RGB range.
    It's all still 8Bit color, except that the hues and contrast blend in much better.
    I have a Plasma TV and it Natively has probably the same Color Output as all these brand new 10bit panels used on the new TVs, but doesn't match the high brightness in intensity. But there have been plenty of times that the Sun in a game or movie feels and looks like an actual sun on the TV.. Even bothers the back of the eyes from thr amount of light.
