Our reader ‘Art Tur’ has informed us about his upcoming multiplayer project that is based on EIDOS Montreal’s Deus Ex: Human Revolution. As the title suggests, this is a project/mod that will introduce multiplayer mode/modes to Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and is powered by the Unity engine. Art Tur is currently looking for 3D modellers and animators to help him (feel free to leave a comment if you’re interested in helping him), and you can view some early screenshots from this project below. Enjoy! Continue reading Deus Ex: Human Revolution Multiplayer Fan Project Under Development, Powered By Unity Engine→
When Lost Planet 3 was showcased for the first time, everyone thought that it was a Dead Space wannabe. And you know what? You can’t really blame them as Lost Planet 3 shares an identical environment with Visceral Games’ third-person game. Not only that, but there are even more similarities between these two games; from the opening scene to the inventory HUD and the claustrophobic feeling (Lost Planet was an action game and not a horror-wannabe title). Lost Planet 3 was definitely inspired by Dead Space, though it also comes with some additional features such as mechs, a grappling hook, more action sequences than its ‘rival’, a main character that looks like Nicolas Cage, a generic camp, and a really horrible lip-syncing system.

CryEngine modders and indie developers have posted some new screenshots from their upcoming projects and holy batman do they love lens flares. We strongly suggest putting your sunglasses on before viewing them because some modders went overdrive with those new lens flares effects that were introduced in the latest build of the free CryENGINE SDK. The highlights of this week are Revan1199’s and USSR_GRAND’s maps. These two modders have created two amazing maps that do not rely on those annoying lens flares, so kudos to them. Enjoy!

Our reader ‘Jonathan Gustafsson’ has informed us about a new, hilarious, mod for GTA IV that introduces a giant duck, a zebra, an ostrich and a tiger to Rockstar’s title. Naturally, there are all sorts of collision issues with these new animals, but the purpose of the mod is to provide some alternative fun experience (and it bloody as hell achieves that). As Jonathan noted, a download link for this mod – which was created by indirivacua – will be available next week, and you can view below a video from it. Enjoy! Continue reading GTA IV – “Giant Duck,Zebra,Ostrich And Tiger Animals” Mod Brings The Zoo To Rockstar’s Title→
During this year’s PAX Prime, Nvidia showcased its Fur Tech that will be used in The Witcher 3. In this demo, Nvidia showcased what its latest tech looks like, however it seems that this particular technique will require a really high-end graphics card in order to be enjoyed. In fact, Nvidia demoed its Fur tech at a mere resolution of 1024×768 and the Titan card was able to only push 65fps when there were two wolves on screen. Continue reading The Witcher 3’s Fur Tech Will Most Probably Bring Your GPUs To Their Knees→
A team of Final Fantasy fans got together and created an amazing live action trailer for an unofficial, fan-made, movie based on Final Fantasy VI. And even though the trailer looks great, we are pretty sure that Square Enix will send Bad Pixel a C&D letter. Which is precisely why the team has not started working on the full movie. Bad Pixel wants to acquire permission from Square-Enix to run a Kickstarter Campaign, however that will most probably won’t happen anytime soon. Let’s not forget that another FF movie – based on FFVII – had a Kickstarter and Square Enix took it down. Here is hoping that the Japanese studio will give the green light to Bad Pixel, though things are not looking ideal. Still, the trailer looks good so go ahead and take a look!
