According to 3dflasher, these scenes can run at 30fps on the comparable system cards of the new consoles - provided they are a bit more optimized. The end result is spectacular, so make sure to give this video a go!"

Special Guest:
This week Bammsters have Josh Grafton of the game Angels Fall First, a combined-arms sci-fi wargame, talking about the current state of the game, where it all started, and where it is heading!
Angels Fall First, by Strangely Interactive, started out as a mod many, many years ago, and only later ended up being a stand-alone game. Josh tells us about the early days, about being a small but diverse team spread our geographically, and about the project going on strong through multiple iterations. We also discuss which older games served as inspiration, and might just have given away our respective ages as we discuss games from 3 decades ago.
The game is available on Steam, under the Early Access category, and by golly, it is an awesome “little” shooter.
EB: Epic has posted a Gamescom sizzle reel for the Unreal Engine that features all of the new titles, and a few past ones, that are using the game engine to bring them to life. It’s literally full of one impressive looking game after another, which shouldn’t surprise many gamers considering the wide use of the engine in most AAA games.
Looks like infiltrator the new x1 exclusive.
Definitely looks good
I've seriously given up respect for Direct X after seeing how good certain games look without it.
I remember getting windows 7 just for DX11 and then it just being a huge resource hog (tesselation mostly) and seeing games like The Witcher 2 using DX9 looking way better than anything using DX11.
I cannot wait for a next-gen Bioshock. For being current gen Infinite was beatiful, can't wait to see how good the next one will look and feel
There is still a lot of room for graphical improvements, next gen certainly won't be the last
Why so serious.
