Stardock is now best known s the publisher of the Sins of a Solar Empire and Elemental franchises, after selling online distribution service Impulse last year. They have just released their annual customer report, talking not only about their experiences in 2011 but also looking into the crystal ball of PC gaming in 2012 and beyond. And the future, they find, may be hazy for Windows-based gaming.
Farbridge's upcoming VR RTS Homeworld: Vast Reaches will be available for Meta Quest headsets from 2nd May 2024.
The official launch of Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is finally upon us! The game is now available for PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and PC.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
It just really was a silly article of "what if's"!
It said "Windows 8 would tank and gamers wouldn't like it!"
so therefore how is that a threat to PC Gaming when Vista and Win7 will still play all your games past present and future?
Then some other crap about "Apple's Air Play taking over with decoupled gaming". Apple barely has games as it is so they are NOT taking over gaming!
Looks like Kotaku is whoring for hits with this insane article!
Everyone really needs to shut the **** up about the "future of PC gaming." I'm seriously sick of it.
How the fuck is windows 8 a threat to PC gaming?come on lets stop with the stupid bull shit.
Windows 8 plays games fine.
Been using the latest version of windows 8 on my test PC and it is running games just fine. The user interface admittedly sucks with a mouse, but you can switch to the "classic view" to get around that. I have used it on a touch screen though and it is much better suited for that. So on a tablet or windows phone, it would work nice.
Also, Apple is not taking over gaming anytime soon. Not when you can build a nice gaming rig for the price of an iPad. A real gamer is not going to pick an iPad over a gaming PC. Hmm, graphics from an iPad, which aren't even close to PS3 or XBOX 360 graphics, or PC graphics which blow every platform away.
Any logical person would choose a PC.
I don't care much for Apple, but if I were to get an iPad/tablet PC, it sure would not be for gaming.
