In the War Between Xbox One & PS4, PC Gamers Win

While E3 has typically been a spectacle its shine had seemed to fade. Over the past few years I’d argued that E3 contained few noteworthy announcements, even if one were to look at it through the lens and perspective of a console gamer — the demographic the convention has historically focused on. Continue reading In the War Between Xbox One & PS4, PC Gamers Win

Gears Of War Map Recreated In Unreal Engine 4 [Finished Project]

As we’ve already informed you, Dave3d has been working on an Unreal Engine 4 map based on Epic’s Gears of War. Dave3d first recreated the map in UDK and then moved his project to Unreal Engine 4. Yesterday, the artist finished the map, showing two screenshots from its Unreal Engine 4 version. We’ve also included below the UDK images so that you can see the differences between these two versions (and the benefits of UE4). The UE4 version is on the left whereas the UDK version is on the right. Enjoy! Continue reading Gears Of War Map Recreated In Unreal Engine 4 [Finished Project]

Shocking: Infinity Blade is the most profitable game for Epic Games, surpassing even Gears of War

Now this is really shocking. You’d expect to hear that Gears of War was the most profitable game for Epic Games but it seems that is not the case. According to Tim Sweeney, CEO of Epic Games, the most profitable game for Epic, in terms of man years invested versus revenue, is Infinity Blade. Yeap, a mobile game is more profitable than the X360’s exclusive Juggernaut. The key thing here though is the ‘in terms of man years invested versus revenue‘ clarification, which means that Sweeney was not referring to total profits for the company. Still though, it’s shocking how Infinity Blade can give triple-A titles a run for their money.

Cliff Bleszinski calls Persson crazy for his suggestions on Psychonauts 2, Persson defends himself

Now this is really interesting. Earlier this week, Markus Persson suggested Double Fine to self fund a sequel to Psychonauts by doing more crowd funding. No, that’s incorrect. Markus said that he’d do exactly that if he was in Tim Schafer’s shoes, so… well… yeah, he suggested that. Anyway, a lot of the press covered it and thought that Markus suggested Double Fine to start a Kickstarter for Psychonauts 2. I mean, that’s one way of how the crowd can fund a game, right? Which is fine by us but it seems that Cliff Bleszinski was annoyed by all this thing. Continue reading Cliff Bleszinski calls Persson crazy for his suggestions on Psychonauts 2, Persson defends himself
