Adventure Classic Gaming talked with Martin Ganteföhr, the writer and the creative director of Overclocked at the Academy of Arts Berlin in the symposium "The Future of Cinema":
"Amid the buzz, Ganteföhr still managed to secure a few moments of free time from his busy schedule to answer some questions for us. We started by asking him to describe the main concepts behind Overclocked, his general outlooks on adventure games, and the challenges faced by independent game developers like him. We then thought-why limit ourselves to such easy topics? So, we tried to stump him with tougher questions, ranging from neurobiology to the art of myth telling in ancient times. To our surprise, he managed to answer them all, with a mix of cool confidence and down-to-earth modesty."
AMD’s RX 460 landed today, and there have been announcements from a number of partner companies, including Asus, Gigabyte, Sapphire, PowerColor and XFX. Curiously, MSI doesn’t seem interested in telling the world that it released one too.
Italian overclocker Pixy, one of the ten best participants HWBot Overclockers League, managed to win the “gold” in a benchmark Cinebench R11.5 and Intel XTU in the category of six-core processors. Results shown ( 18,69 and 1,851 points, respectively) at the same time are the best for all desktop CPU, including the eight-core.
The Armchair Empire writes: "As a gamer, I'm such a suck for adventure games, particularly good ones, and though there are some technical issues surrounding the overall execution and the pacing is frustratingly slow, Overclocked actually feels satisfying at its conclusion but you'll need to be a dyed-in-the-wool fan of adventure games to reach that point.
You play as "former forensic psychiatrist for the U.S. Army" David McNamara investigating a case which involves five nut bars found wandering New York City, all of them suffering from, what else, amnesia. These are all shattered people and it's up to McNamara to delve into their psyches (via flashbacks as you play through their eyes), as bloody and twisted as they are, and piece together what brought them to their current mental state, which actually made me think of LOST."
