Our reader Jonathan Gustafsson has informed us about a mod that promises to bring Assassin’s Creed into GTA IV’s game engine. Created by “ShakingASS” and “terreur69”, this mod is still in early stages and as we can see below, there are no special moves for Altair, no crowd, no abilities to climb on walls, etc. Obviously we’re asking for too much as this will most probably be an Assassin’s Creed map and nothing more. But still, imagine if these two guys could implement such features. All in all, this mod – on its final stage – will give us a glimpe of what an Assassin’s Creed game could look like on the RAGE engine. Enjoy some early footage from it, captured by Jonathan himself!

CreatorOfThings has released the first gameplay video of the Battlefront 2013 mod for Star Wars: Battlefront II. This mod aims to improve the visual and rendering capabilities of Pandemic Studios’ Zero Engine by adding modern-day features such as Color Correction, Motion Blur, Depth of Field, and Bloom. In all truthfulness, this looks like using the SweetFX Shader Suite. In fact, this is an injector tool as – according to the mod’s description – it ‘injects code into the game during run-time that adds modern graphical enhancements and effects‘. We’ll give the modder the benefit of doubt, however we’re pretty sure that you can get these features by using the SweetFX Shader Suite. But anyway, below you will find a debut gameplay video from this mod. Enjoy! Continue reading Star Wars: Battlefront II – Battlefront 2013 Mod – Debut Gameplay Footage→

Graphics whores, time to get a glimpse at a possible next-generation future (or a next-next-generation future as we are pretty sure that next-gen platforms won’t be able to run these pre-rendered tech videos in real-time). Below you can find a short movie that was made at Vaya Studio and a pre-rendered video from Hayssam Keilany that showcases path tracing in its full glory. Could we get close to this kind of visuals when next-gen consoles hit the market? We certainly hope so. Enjoy!
