PC Nvidia Gamescon Confrence Today - 2080 series to be announced

PC Nvidia Gamescon Confrence Today - 2080 series to be announced
AbsolutSurgen replied to Mr.Vic20's topic in The Spawn Point
I believe that AMD has the consoles locked up for the foreseeable future -- so unless AMD also goes this direction, it will be hard for it to hit the mainstream. Will developers really incorporate Ray Tracing in their engines before a critical mass of people have these cards? -

I believe that Ray Tracing is the "future" of graphics -- but probably won't be mainstream for many years. That said, I've read that GTX may stay around with the 2060 due to it's slower ray tracing performance... Rumours are that it may be SLIGHTLY faster... -

Rumours are pointing to a 2080Ti as well -
The combat is actually one of the best parts of the game after you acquire a variety of weapons. The first couple of hours are a little slow, and I definitely found myself underpowered. But later.... fighting a Thinderjaw for the first time was so exhilarating.

General Gaming BEST OPEN WORLD DEV
AbsolutSurgen replied to skillzdadirecta's topic in The Spawn Point
They don't do driving/racing better than Forza Horizon 3 and they don't have anything that comes close to the ship-to-ship combat in ACIV. Their western/Cowboy stuff is second to none. -

I guess the reasons are.. Battlefront 2 No battle royale mode in Battlefield V? -
General Gaming BEST OPEN WORLD DEV
AbsolutSurgen replied to skillzdadirecta's topic in The Spawn Point
I didn't have much time to write my response earlier. The Forza Horizon series is by far my most played series of games over the last 5 years. Every year they come out, I am absorbed for about 2 months. The driving is a great balance of arcade and sim, the challenges are fun, and there are tons of great cars to upgrade. It just makes driving so FUN. No other games even try to do this. For this reason, to me, Playground Games is the best open world developer. -
General Gaming BEST OPEN WORLD DEV
AbsolutSurgen replied to skillzdadirecta's topic in The Spawn Point
I think we've got a combination of developers/publishers in the list... My favourites: Rockstar San Diego Ubisoft Montreal Guerilla Games Rockstar North (I will give GTAV another go, but I bounced off of it relatively quickly...) Surprised to not see CD Project Red on the list... Editted because I am an idiot: Playground Games clearly makes the best open world games. -
General Gaming DOOM Eternal gameplay footage from QuakeCon
AbsolutSurgen replied to Bloodporne's topic in The Spawn Point
Wow. Finally watched that last night. It makes me wish that Halo/CoD hadn't turned shooters in the slow, duck and hide while your health recharges single player experiences that they mostly are today. Can't wait to play this.- 59 replies

Microsoft Anyone know the deal on the Xbox One/S tradeup to X deal?
AbsolutSurgen replied to misfit410's topic in The Spawn Point
Apparently when I looked on my phone, I clicked on the wrong spot -- it is apparently worth $200. -

Apparently my launch XB1 is only worth $90 as part of this deal.... -
General Gaming Holy shit the balls on Filip Miucin
AbsolutSurgen replied to Paperclyp's topic in The Spawn Point
Click on any IGN or Gamespot review. Look at their picture on twitter. Try to find one person who has been doing reviews there for 10 years (let alone 20). Actually, I think the ones making money are streaming on twitch, rather than doing reviews on YouTube... -
PC Tech Time For An Upgrade
AbsolutSurgen replied to Chest_Rockwell's topic in PC/Mac Technical and PCCB
A couple of suggestions: 1) If your PSU is from 2011, I would be tempted to replace it. You might be OK, but it likely won't last for the life of the rest of the components 2) Consider getting a full Windows 10 license (rather than OEM)-- you will likely be able to use it for your next build too... -

The games enthusiast press is mostly made up of kids in their 20s, who barely earn anything, who are constantly churned -- to ensure they stay cheap. "Criticism", like that seen of other media, in games reviews on most of the big sites is mostly nonexistent. And its likely to stay that way as long as it is the purview of inexperienced, poorly paid 25-year olds.
