I know, I know, you read that ‘new in-game footage’ line and were so excited that did not pay attention to the tech-thing, right? Well, there was a reason we included the word ‘tech’, as this is simply a timelapse video from GTA V. In other words, this can be considered as a trailer that showcases what the engine will be able to offer us and nothing more. Though there is still no word about a PC version of GTA V, word has it that GTA V PC might get unveiled during Take Two’s upcoming investor call. Until then, though, enjoy the video!

PhysX.info showcased a new fluid simulation algorithm called Position Based Fluids. We’ve criticized PhysX effects in the past, but this new algorithm sports the best real-time fluids (aka water) we’ve ever seen. It’s no stretch to say that this digital water comes close to the real deal, which is a big accomplishment. It is said that more details on this a new technique will be available later on, in a SIGGRAPH 2013 paper. Currently there are no games taking advantage of this technique, so here is hoping that developers will start using both PhysX 3.0 and the latest techniques that have been introduced to the latest PhysX builds (this new fluid simulation technique will be added in future versions of PhysX SDK or APEX modules). According to YouTube’s ‘Zogrim’ who uploaded the video, a GTX580 was able to handle both sim (~ 130k particles) and rendering at 30 fps. Enjoy!

Blasphemy, how can a PC centric gaming website have a story about a console exclusive title? Did we just enter the dark side of gaming? Well, before jumping to early conclusions, know that we’re simply interesting in the new tech that Killzone 4 is bringing. And since we’ve been covering ray-tracing this whole time, we find it interesting that Killzone 4 is the first title that offers such a feature in a full length title actually after further investigation, Crysis 2-3 offer this very same thing (ray-traced HDR reflections) via a different technique. Continue reading Killzone 4 Uses Raytracing For Its Real-Time Reflections→
