Okay STALKER 2 fans, here is something that might make you happy and start jumping around your room. GSC GameWorld has tweeted that we’ll get some official news in mid January and that “there is cause for hope”.

Yeah, it seems that there is light at the end of GSC’s tunnel but for all we know, this message could be GSC’s attempt at damage control, so hold your horses. For now at least.

Fast forward a couple of years and here we are today with a new PC build for Alan Wake that will support DX9. Yeap, you read that right and it’s official. Alan Wake PC will support DX9 and Windows XP. Continue reading Alan Wake PC will support DX9; more details about its game engine→
The OGSE Team sent us word about a crucial feature that will be implemented in the next version of their OGSE Mod. OGSE 0.6.9.3 will feature improved light sources on static render, which basically means that most of the point light-sources such as lamps, will have “real” lighting on R1 (static) render mode. According to the team, this was accomplished by “adjusting light-source properties in game SDK” and what’s more interesting, is that these light sources will be breakable.
