MyCrysis announces a June 27th release date for the
promised DirectX 11 patch for
Crysis 2, Crytek's first-person shooter sequel. This follows up on the
inadvertent revelation of Crytek's plans for a DirectX 11 DX 11 Tessellation Pack and a Hi Res Texture Pack for the game, and they explain to the folks who were able to download these packs that they can't really be put to use before the release of this patch, which will update Crysis 2 to version 1.9. In the meantime they also have
updated version 1.9 patch notes (thanks Grifter), which follow.
- Added Contact Shadows

Give it up already. Windows XP is dead and buried, and mercifully so.
Right. Just ignore the numbers.
By looking at the steam hardware survey, the numbers are showing XP is falling and becoming less and less relevant.
Nearly half are Windows 7, Vista (32 and 64bit together) are a few percent higher than XP (32 and 64 together). XP is in third place and is on the decline.
For me I've been done with XP for quite some time now. For gaming, the more relevant question is dx10+ capable systems. And thats about 60%.
And I still miss my XP. win 7 continually comes up with new ways to annoy me when I use it. |
