    You mean it's not a renamed version of Shattered Horizon?


    Sorry, someone was bound to say it so it might as well be me :lol:

    ugh talk about missing some details unless this isnt the final release because they are missing the prop wash from the rotors... but other then that it looks great.

    I don't know if everyone saw it but I think there was a little bit of advertising in there. Unfortunately it went too fast for me to see the name of the sponsoring company - I think it was Asus?

    No I don't think so. There was an M, S and an I in there I think.

    ISM maybe? Never heard of them.

    Not to be a smartass, but it does say "Work In Progress" at the top. Looks pretty good overall. Not sure if I'd bother to upgrade from Vantage, though.

    Best not trust them, just to be safe. I don't want no-name gear in my rig.

    Awesome, and yeah, I look forward to the Dx11 version of this years FPS magnum opus, Shattered Horizon.
    DX11 is brilliant because it not only allows you to view it in DX11 glory, but Dx10, 10.1 and even the ancient dx9.

    Cheers,
    S*D

    Don't worry SD, Futuremark has reseved a server just for you to download it when it's available. ;)

    Q: Will you buy another PC to have it running all day every day, beside you, keeping you warm? :)

    Looks like you missed the huge "work in progress" across the upper half of the video, Mister Details.

    All these extra effects should at least stretch our gear a little... looks amazing though

    free unlimited runs. excellent :D

    with tessellation, i think we'll see Fermi taking a huge lead in this benchmark.

    So far Fermi has got a kicking, but I wonder if it'll do better when we start to get games that require high levels of tessellation to look that good.
    Certainly I think tessellation is the future of getting games to look better.

    The vignetting is pretty nice though.

    Yup, the old gas boiler is inefficient, costs thousands to replace, so I may save some cash and use a GTX 480 instead!
