DSOGaming – The Crew – Five Minutes Of Crazy Driving

Ubisoft has provided us with a key for the closed beta phase of The Crew, and since there is no NDA this time around, you can view below five minutes of… well… crazy driving.

It’s still early to give a verdict, but so far this looks like a polished PC version (support for wheels, proper keyboard indications, scaling on multi-core CPUs, GPU-bound with great SLI scaling). Enjoy! Continue reading DSOGaming – The Crew – Five Minutes Of Crazy Driving →
