Dark Souls PC is entirely up to Namco Bandai says From Software

In a recent interview with GameTrailers, Masanori Takeuchi, head of R&D at From Software, revealed that From Software is aware of the high demand for a PC version of Dark Souls. Not only that, but Masanori said that the port is entirely up to Namco Bandai. This is definitely something new, as there were big concerns this entire time about From Software’s knowledge of the PC hardware and whether they could actually port the game or not. According to Masanori, if Namco Bandai decides to port the game, it will be ported. Plain and simple. Continue reading Dark Souls PC is entirely up to Namco Bandai says From Software

The Witcher 2 – Enhanced Edition Cinematic Intro

After watching this new cinematic of The Witcher 2’s enhanced edition, I can safely say that graphics do matter.

Well, here is hoping that we’ll actually play… someday… games with this kind of graphics. Until then though, enjoy this new cinematic – courtesy of GameTrailers. The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition will be released on the PC on the 17th of April and if you already own the game, you will receive the upgrade to the Enhanced Edition for free!

To be more precise, the petition surpassed the 80K mark in January 20th and today it’s at 81500.
