MOD Brings UFO Right inside GTA V

The truth is out there, or at least it used to be. Now it’s right here, overhead, bombarding the streets of GTA 5’s Los Santos. The UFO Invasion mod gives you a nice look at GTA 5’s elusive flying saucers by having them hover in the sky, blasting the city (and you) with deadly blue lasers, and sucking up cars and citizens (and you!) with tractor beams.

Mixture of MORROWIND and SKYRIM gives us SKYWIND

About a year ago the team working to recreate Morrowind in the Skyrim engine asked for voice actors and sound quality assistants to help them make Skywind sound as good as it looks. They’ve done well in that year, and, in a recent update, have shared videos of three of the completed recordings as they appear in game: an Argonian, a Dunmer, and an Altmer (which sounds like the beginning of a joke, I know). Here’s the Argonian, which is just as growly as you’d expect. Continue reading Mixture of MORROWIND and SKYRIM gives us SKYWIND

SKYLAKE Tweaks Improve Discrete Graphics Performance

Tests on the first Intel processors running on its new Skylake architecture in early August gave some odd results regarding the performance of games using discrete graphics cards. In some benchmarks, both Haswell and Broadwell, the previous generation CPUs, performed marginally better than or tied with Skylake. When we wrote about Skylake, we mentioned that it was support for new memory and storage bandwidth, not pure CPU speed, that made it a valuable upgrade. Now we’ve got a bit more insight into why Skylake struggled to surpass its predecessors.

The Witcher 3’s first expansion, Hearts of Stone, was announced months ago, before the release of the game, alongside another expansion called Blood and Wine that’s not due until next year. Hearts of Stone is out next month, but until now we didn’t know much about how it’ll fit into the game, only that it’ll add about ten hours and take place in No Man’s Land and Oxenfurt. Continue reading THE WITCHER 3 expansion HEARTH STONE starts at level 30
