Dead Space 3
I’m pretty sure you all saw that coming. games.on.net revealed that Dead Space 3 PC will be a simple console port and nothing more. No DX11 support, no higher-resolution textures, no graphical enhancements, no specific PC tweaks or features. In fact, PC gamers should be thankful that this game will hit their platform as Visceral Games is obviously not focused on it.

Need For Speed: Most Wanted – New Patch Fixes Performance Issues

Need For Speed Most Wanted
At long last everyone; Criterion has released a new patch that fixes the dreadful performance of Need For Speed: Most Wanted. Although we don’t have a changelog for this patch, a quick run (after updating the game) shows significant FPS gains.
