When Konami announced that Castlevania: Lords of Shadow would be coming to the PC, we were a bit worried. Although we were pretty sure that an average PC could handle this title, we were not certain whether Konami would drop the ball with this port. Yes, we feared that Castlevania: Lords of Shadow PC would be identical to Dark Souls PC (different development studios and publishers, but still). Thankfully, we are happy to report that not only does the PC version look great, it is also running remarkably amazing, is GPU bound, runs flawlessly on dual-core systems, and has proper keyboard on-screen indications (provided you’re using that control scheme). In short, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow looks and runs amazing on the PC, making it the definitive version of Konami’s title. Continue reading Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – PC Performance Analysis→

As you may already know, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was shown behind closed doors in this year’s Gamescom. Well, good news for all of you who could not attend this event – and were not invited in CDPR’s presentation – as someone has managed to leak some gameplay footage that was showcased.

Two weeks ago, we informed you about the release of the SDK for the latest version of CRYENGINE. Naturally, modders/artists/indie devs decided to take a look at this SDK and came up with some pretty… well… bizarre results. And from the looks of it, it seems that next-gen will be all about lens flares and some ‘in-your-face’ particles effects. Yes yes, some modders overused those effects in the following shots, but it’s pretty clear that every damn engine now supports those anamorphic lens flares. So, without further delay, we present you some new images and videos from CryDev’s members afsoft, big fish, darkchazz, DevGuy1975, Lavizh, Maximum-Dev, myth000, promuckaj, ReVan1199, Shapeshifter, kfrancis167 and USSR_GRAND.
