And we are happy to report today that Bohemia’s upcoming military sim game, ArmA 3, might be the first one to use this new PhysX version. Continue reading Confirmed: ArmA 3 will take advantage of PhysX 3.0 SDK→

And although some of you misunderstood From Software’s statement about the ‘720p resolution’ restriction, we are happy to report that the game supports resolutions up to 1080p. As we said back when that information got out, From Software was obviously talking about the game’s assets resolution and nothing more. Continue reading Dark Souls PC – 1080p support, 30fps lock option, major fps issues even with Nvidia GTX 6xx cards→
You know what? It’s a bit ironic to see a platform winning E3, even without having a press conference dedicated to it. Of course most of you are drooling over Far Cry 3, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, Tomb Raider, Dead Space 3, Dishonored and other multi-platform titles, right? Well, time to let you know that all those games were demoed on a PC and not on a console. Forget those controllers that were used. Instead of lying to everyone (like Crytek did back in 2010 with their Crysis 2 demo), most companies in this year’s E3 admitted that they were using a PC to showcase their games, either publicly or in personal interviews. Continue reading E3 2012 – Almost all E3 multi-platform games were showcased on the PC→

And it seems that’s one of the reason why the company is already tired of current generation consoles and is really looking forward to the next generation era. Continue reading Crytek is already ‘tired’ of current generation consoles; ‘PC is allowing us to push so much more’→
