Past To Present Online has posted an one hour long video from the leaked build of Star Wars: Battlefront III. Star Wars: Battlefront III won’t be released anytime soon as Lucas Arts has gone downhill. Yes, there are some rumors about other studios picking it up (alongside Star Wars 1313) but they are just that, rumors. And as we can clearly see from this footage, Star Wars: Battlefront III was still in a really early stage. Nevertheless, it had potential. Enjoy!

Back in December 2012, we claimed that Far Cry 3 was the most optimized game for the PC platform. As we said back then, we only judged the DX9 version of it as we could not test its DX11 path (due to our previous GPU). Fast forward a couple of months and here we are today with our GTX690 and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, the standalone expansion that is powered by the same engine. So, time to see whether Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is as optimized as its predecessor or not. Continue reading Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon – PC Performance Analysis→

And here comes another modern-day Minecraft game, powered by an indie in-house engine. Upvoid Studios released yesterday a tech demo, showcasing what their Upvoid Engine is currently capable of. This engine – an engine that features destructible terrain and is mainly targeted towards dynamic open-world games – will power a Minecraft-like game, called SimpleMiner. The biggest issue, at the moment, is the lack of shadows, something that will be hopefully fixed in the next build of this engine. It looks cool, so go ahead and take a look!

Ah, mods. We all love mods. However, sometimes we have to be really careful while installing them. You see, most of the times there are compatibility issues between some of them, and those issues are what usually break a game. Install more than enough and your game will be lifted to new heights with broken physics, broken visuals, artifacts all over the place and broken collisions. And Machinima has just posted a video, showcasing what GTA IV looks like when there are such issues. Enjoy! Continue reading Hilarious GTA IV Video – When Mods Break The Game→
