Diablo III will be ‘color-blind’ friendly; game is built with that in mind

You know what? Color-blind gamers have the right to enjoy each and every game. Most of them can’t distinguish the difference between green and red hues but that doesn’t mean that they are bad players or that they are not as hardcore as most of you. And thankfully, Blizzard’s upcoming action RPG game will be quite friendly to all color-blind gamers, as the game is built with those gamers in mind.

VGA Trailers; Hitman: Absolution, C&C: Generals 2, Mass Effect 3, Tom Clancy’s Patriots & Diablo III

Instead of posting each and every trailer of VGA’s games – that will be released on the PC – on each own, we decided to include all of them in one big post. Therefore, enjoy everyone the trailers of Hitman: Absolution, Mass Effect 3, the incredible CG opening cinematic of Diablo III, Tom Clancy’s Patriots CG, Bioshock Infinite and the short teaser of C&C: Generals 2. In addition, you will find Portal 2’s nominee video. Rumor has it that it includes some hints about Half-Life 3. Riiiiiiiiight. Either way, this year’s VGA’s were a bit underwhelming to say the least so go ahead and view the aforementioned trailers!

Darker colors in Diablo 3; FXAA Injector saves the day for those seeking for a grittier look

Admit it, you were disappointed with Blizzard’s decision to include brighter colors in Diablo 3. We bet that most of you wanted a grittier look and here comes FXAA Injector to save the day. In case the name rings any bell, we informed you about this Skyrim mod a few days ago as it enhances the game’s graphics with some amazing results. YouTube user ‘Pyloneer’ went ahead, tweaked and got it working for Blizzard’s hack n slash, so make sure to get it while you still can. We should note that at this point, we are not 100% sure if something like this is allowed by Blizzard or whether they count it as a “hack or cheat”. So use it at your own risk. Continue reading Darker colors in Diablo 3; FXAA Injector saves the day for those seeking for a grittier look

Diablo III – Black Soulstone Cinematic

As promised, Blizzard released the new CG trailer for Diablo III and let us tell you that it looks phenomenal. Well, this is Blizzard we are talking about so it’s only natural to be impressed by these cinematic trailers. And I’ll be serious on this; Some might say that they can’t wait to get their hands on it, but my thoughts were quite different. Personally, I can’t wait untill we get games that look as spectacular as this one. We are seriously stuck right now – partially due to consoles – and seriously now, imagine the potentials when we get graphics plus environment destructibility and interactivity like those that are featured in this CG trailer. Oh boy, I just hope that I’ll live to witness such thing. Continue reading Diablo III – Black Soulstone Cinematic
