Re: Game of the year predictions

I just completed the single-player CoD 4 campaign and thought it was awesome. Crysis is gorgeous, but I don't think the game itself is as good as some others. Personally, I go for straight up action, and the game has to look good too. Surprisingly, I've actually squeezed in some game time the last couple of months and have opinions on this topic! :)

My personal choices, based on the 'fun' factor are:

1) Gears of War PC (SOOOO much better than the Xbox 360 version. Once you get used to the controls, the game is super fun and the graphics are great.)

2) Call of Duty 4 (Very tough choice for me. I thought the single player campaign was awesome, and they did some really unexpected things with the story line. If it was longer, it would have been my first choice.)

3) UT3 - (Just plain fun.)

Crysis, EP2, Bioshock all come after these three for me. Bioshock especially. It starts out so sloooow and boring to me.

The State of DirectX 10 - Image Quality & Performance

Hello Everyone,

When DirectX 10 was first introduced to the market by graphics manufacturers and subsequently supported by Windows Vista, it was generally understood that adoption by game developers was going to be more of a slow migration than a quick flip of a switch. That said, nearly a year later, the question is how far have we come?

In this HotHardware article, we showcase many of the most popular DX10-capable games, like Bioshock, World In Conflict, Call of Juarez, Lost Planet, and Company of Heroes, and feature current image quality comparisons versus DX9 modes with each. The article also details the associated performance levels across many of the more popular graphics cards, from both the mid-range and high-end. After digesting all of the data, you be the judge. Are we there yet?

*EDIT*- As mentioned earlier, I played the BioShock demo last night.....drool! That game is amazing! If you have a 360 in your fleet, get the demo now and go buy the game on the 21st! I'll post pics tonight if you guys would like to see it.
