Legit Reviews: "Many of the new PC game titles that are coming out today are being released with DirectX 11 graphics. As a result gamers are finding themselves limited in their choices of graphics cards as just AMD's Radeon 5000 series of graphics cards fully support DX11. You don't have to have a DirectX 11 graphics card to play DirectX 11 game titles, but to get the graphics quality that you paid for one is most certainly needed.
AMD started selling DirectX capable cards in September of 2009 and continues to be the only company that does so. The most recent DirectX 11 game title on the market was released last week and that would be Rebellion's Alien Vs Predator (2010). This game has gotten off to a great start and is currently the number one selling game title in the UK and from what we can tell it also has done well in North America. This got our attention and we wanted to see how a couple of ATI Radeon HD 5000 series cards could do in DirectX 11 mode with the image quality cranked up. "
In the first part of our series we took a look at the inception of horror games. Now we delve deeper and see how they evolved throughout the decades.
"Ever since Xbox One backward compatibility was announced, gamers have been asking for a few high-profile games. While the majority of requests revolve around the Call of Duty franchise, the Aliens and Sonic franchises have been other hot series. Today, Microsoft announced that Aliens vs. Predator, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, and Sonic Unleashed are now backward compatible."
Kingdoms of Amalur was brilliant. Never did get a sequel because all the crap that happened after with the IP.
It looks as though the 2010 first person shooter, Aliens vs Predator might become a Xbox Backwards Compatible title soon based on its revamped Xbox Store product page.
Been playing the shit out of it on PS3. Hopefully this gives the game another lease of life. Such an underrated game imho.
