Well, we already knew that Crysis 2 and 3 were limited by its consoles counterparts. Still, it’s good to see companies admitting that, and here comes today Cevat Yerli who stated that even Crysis 3 was limited by current-generation consoles. Yes, Crysis 3 is a great looking game on the PC and Crytek did exceptional things with it (great scaling on both CPU and GPU, even though it’s demanding as hell), however – and as we’ve stated about those physics calculations – the team did not take it to the next level.

Phosphor Games Studio has released an Unreal Engine 4 Tech Demo for its upcoming game that will be powered by Epic’s next-generation engine, Project Awakened. As the team described, this is an early demonstration of the detail level and rendering effects they plan to give players as part of the Project Awakened Create-a-Player system. It looks cool, and way better than its UE3 counterpart that was shown off when the game’s Kickstarter campaign launched. Speaking of that, this game might not see the light of day as it has only raised $200K and there are 5 days left to it. Therefore, if you’re interested in it, go ahead and back it up!

However, it seems that CryEngine 3 is being pushed to its limits with those physics calculations that were introduced. Ironically, all physics are calculated by the CPU, meaning that you will nee a really top of the line CPU in order to enjoy it. But more on this later. Continue reading Crysis 3 – PC Performance Analysis→
Ever wondered what a modern-day version of Minecraft would look like? Well, the man behind VoxelFarm had – most probably – the same question in his head when he started creating it. VoxelFarm is a voxel engine that supports meshes and features a procedurally generated terrain. It looks cool and is programmed by an individual, Miguel Cepero. Miguel and some friends will be creating a game with this tech that will allow large numbers of players to come together, or play solo if they want to. The core idea will be to explore new interesting places, claim them, and develop them. Miguel has released two new videos for this engine that can be viewed below.
