Nice..i guess thats great news for gamers and the indies.

Nice, not gonna lie i was never the type to be sold into many indies, but i guess it is cool that when DX12 fully launches they will be able to be ported very easily. In the end they pretty much all will since it will be an easy process and some cash flow for the creators also puttiing their work out to more consumers.
In the end its more games for my shiny X1, ill take it! :)

That is what I am talking about. DX12 is really going change the development and porting from all the MS platform ecosystem.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I'm really tired of seeing PC games being ported but not the other way around. It's really annoying, guess I'll have to wait for a PS4/XB1 emulator then.

That won't be happening man. Xbox 1 circa 2001 is X86 based and emulating X86 on X86 is quite difficult according to... http://www.neogaf.com/forum...

I thought they showed Forza 5 running on a Nvidia based PC at GDC to show off DX12? And it only took a 4 man team a couple of months iirc.

Musashi vs Cthulhu review - Games Asylum

Games Asylum: "There’s a demand on the digital services for inexpensive games; something cheap and cheerful to brighten a dull afternoon that could potentially be bought with leftover credit. With both limited budget and resources in mind, it pays for the developers of these smaller titles (Musashi vs Cthulhu costs just over £4, incidentally) to keep things simple and focused. There’s joy to be had in simplicity if it’s done well, and it’s up to developers to capitalise on this. Nobody expects a colossal, cinematic, RPG for under a fiver. Something simple that’s refined and fun to play? An entirely reasonable expectation to have. Problem is, low budget games can feel…low budget."
