I stumbled upon an article today on geek.com regarding some interesting news about the unreal engine.

Article on geek.com

Apparently the Unreal Team is already hard at work on Unreal Engine 4, despite the fact that it won’t run on current hardware. In fact not even the next generation of consoles, which we know virtually nothing about, are up to the task.

In fact, speculation suggests that a cpu with 12 (or more) cores might be required to properly handle the engine.

Makes me kinda sad to know that not even my 4ghz hyper-threaded i7 beast is up to the challenge… I guess it’s back to the drawing board for the hardware team.

Hey guys, I’ve just enabled X-Fire broadcasting for my account, so now whenever I click Scroll Lock + B in-game, you can see whats going on in real time. It works great in Unreal Tournament III, even when I’m Broadcasting audio too.

For now I’m gonna leave these sessions open to the public, until I see a reason not to. You do have to be my friend to know when I’m broadcasting though, so click on my X-Fire profile (to the right) and add me as your friend.

Oh, and if you don’t have X-Fire yet, but you play ANY kind of computer games, heres the low down:

Basically, after you head over to http://www.XFire.com and download their very lite software app, it will scan for any games you have installed and track their usage. You don’t get paid like you do in Jact, but it has a slew of great features: Text and Voice com, in-game screen shots,  in-game video, and now in-game broadcasting, and when I say any kind of game, I mean ANYTHING from solitaire to WoW they’ve got you covered.

catch you on X-Fire,
