Report: Despite Claims, Most PC Games Are Still Unable To Take Advantage Of More Than 4 CPU Cores

Well, you gotta love developers. This past year, we’ve been hearing from a lot of teams that their games were taking advantage of more than four CPU cores. And you know what?

Here Is What Star Wars Episode I: Racer Could Look Like In CRYENGINE

Back in April, we informed you about a Star Wars Episode I: Racer project. This project is being created by Polycount’s member ‘Benkeeling‘ who has decided to ditch Unreal Engine 4 over CRYENGINE, and has posted some new images from it. According to the artist, Unreal Engine 4 was “pretty cumbersome to use due to the long build times for lighting and now compiling materials which is really disappointing.” Enjoy and kudos to NeoGAF for sharing our original story about Benkeeling’s map!

DSOGaming – Concursion – First Impressions + First 10 Minutes Playthrough

Beefjack was kind enought to provide us with a copy of Concursion; Puuba’s new title that combines lots of different genres into one game. Concursion mixes together the worlds of platformer, shooter, hack-n-slash, jetpack and maze racer/ puzzlers as players pull off feats of tight aerial acrobatics, run, jump, fly, fight and occasionally dance through the kingdom on their quest to put a stop to Bigunbad (the bad guy of the game that has kidnapped a princess).
