Is anyone planning on watching this?

 

[pjbliverpool]

It's a bit late for the UK audience but I'll be watching in replay.

hmm 8pm, I might actually watch it tonight. Cloud Imperium should put on a good display

Oh yeah they know how to put on a good show.

No game could ever live up to the hype they've created, but the unfortunate downside of crowdfunding is that hype is necessary to drive investment. With the astronomical level of complexity involved and rampant feature creep I give Star Citizen a 40% chance of ever being released in a complete state.

The only hope is that Mr. Roberts can hold all these different things in his head and come up with some way to put the pieces together into something that resembles a coherent experience. He is no doubt very talented which is why I went as high as 40%.

To pass the time, here's this morning's "AMD Presents: A New Era of PC Gaming" conference: www.twitch.tv/amd/v/6240136?t=27m18s

It's part of the PC Gaming Show.

 

[BRiT]

Okay, so there seems to be some confusion about this conference. The Twitch stream is indicating the show starts at 9pm EDT instead of 8pm EDT, so it hasn't started yet. But in the Twitch channel chat a large number of people thought it started now.

Gears of War Ultimate & Killer Instinct announced for Win10.

Another Theme Park? ugh

What the F is that AMD gaming system? Really weird design with the custom dual-Fiji.

So ready for this...

Should run really well with the games being 60fps on Xbox.

everything is in the bottom and the top is a large radiator and fan set up . Cpu / gpus are cooled that way.

They showed the dual Fiji card. The theme park game could be fun , I had a ton of fun with the original one back in the day. The format is interesting

I'd much rather they release 2 and 3. Already played the PC version of Gears 1 twice so this holds no interest for me.

 

[Shortbread]

True. However, since I have officially taken up 4K gaming on the PC, having better texture assets and other improvements compared to the original PC release, seems like a perfect fit for it. Plus, I haven't played the original since XB360 in a very Very VERY long time.

I was thinking about it in that manner that I would love for 2 and 3 to be released for the PC as well but perhaps they are gauging reaction from the audience before they commit to that?
