2007 Game Awards

[KennyG 0]

Quote from Maximum PC,Magazine and they are going through their 2007 Game Awards. --- begin quote --- BEST EXCUSE TO UPGRADE YOUR PC FLIGHT SIM X This award could have also been titled the Biggest System-Requirements Fibber, as FSX crawls at near-slide-show levels on machines vastly exceeding Microsoft's guidelines. This might tick off many gamers, but honestly, it thrills the masochist in us. We just love it when a game comes out that punishes top-end PC hardware - it gives us a new performance benchmark with which to showcase the most cutting-edge gear. We're sure this game won't run at its maximum potential until the release of DX10, spawning a wave of upgrades across this country. --- end quote ---Just thought some may enjoy this article.Kenny G.

Let's hope he's right about DX10 doing that to FSX, too.RhettAMD 3700+ (@2310 mhz), eVGA 7800GT 256 (Guru3D 93.71), ASUS A8N-E, PC Power 510 SLI, 2 GB Corsair XMS 2.5-3-3-8 (1T), WD 250 gig 7200 rpm SATA2, CoolerMaster Praetorian case

the new LOMAC would be a better excuse...

>the new LOMAC would be a better excuse...I'm actually excited about the announced DX10 patch for Company of Heroes. It's already the best looking game I own.

Yea and Alan Wake looks real good too.

I don't know, Alan Wake is starting to look more and more like a Duke Nukem Forever vaporware seeing as it has been delayed so many times and is now loosely scheduled for '08 some time. Crysis is the game that i am most anxious for. I'm hoping that it sees the light of day this summer and doesn't get delayed as well into the holiday season or '08. If I were a betting man I would say that we won't see any dx10 games before the holidays...________________________________________________________________________________________________Intel D975XBX2 'Bad Axe 2' | Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 @ 3.20Ghz | 2 GB Super Talent DDR2 800 | Big Typhoon VX | eVGA 8800GTS @ 565/900 | Seagate 2x320GB SATA RAID-0 | OCZ GameXStream 700W | Creative X-Fi | Silverstone TJ-09BW | Matrox Triplehead Setup

I am drooling in anticipation for Crysis. Far Cry (its predecessor) is still fun to play.
