As we’ve said in our Performance Analysis, there are some low-res textures included in the PC version of Splinter Cell: Blacklist. And that’s precisely why we can rely on SweetFX in order to improve the game’s IQ. Below you can find a comparison between two of our SweetFX settings. The first one is with subtle sharpening (and various tweaks to its mid-tones, shadows, saturation, curves levels and contrast) while the second one – the one we currently prefer and looks similar to what CDPR is doing with The Witcher 3 – has more sharpening.

Slightly Mad Studios has released a new batch of screenshots for Project CARS. There is no doubt that pCars looks sexy, though we are a bit worried about its driving/physics mechanics that are not up to what Assetto Corsa and rFactor 2 are offering. Still, we are still way off until pCars gets out, so here is hoping that Slightly Mad Studios will further tweak them. And if it does not, at least we’ll be getting a really great looking racing game. Enjoy! Continue reading Project CARS Gets A New Set Of Gorgeous & Highly Detailed Screenshots→

Almost a month ago, we informed you about a recreation of Naughty Dog’s Uncharted 3 in CryEngine 3. Well, today we bring you another attempt at recreating this title in Crytek’s engine. Modder Antonio Jean (who is 18 years old mind you) has finished his recreated map and presented some images from it. The end result is surprisingly good and comes close to what Naughty Dog created – and in some aspects surpasses it thanks to some of CE3’s features. Naturally, some will love it while others will hate it. And while we are at it, keep in mind that the map was created by a single person and not a whole professional studio. Enjoy!
