Not very impressive even in DX11

Yeah. STALKER isn't really graphically impressive but it's still a great game

I think the difference is very subtle in some cases, but still obvious enough to see that they labeled it wrong in picture 5 of 14. DX11 is left, as the model on the right is much more edgy.

Also, the difference global illumination makes in outdoor daylight scenes is pretty drastic, I think.

Not much of a difference in the shadows but the tesselation makes quite a difference as it makes those "curves" look much more like curves.

Not to mention the performance difference tessellation is supposed to make vs parallax mapping.

Does this mean DX11 games will look and preform better then DX9 games?

I sure hope so, but I highly doubt it. Let's wait and see....

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
