Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered – PC Performance Analysis

We don’t usually dedicate PC Performance Analysis articles to remasters of older games, however Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered deserves such an article. Instead of simply adding numerous lighting/special effects – like Bethesda did in the Special Edition of Skyrim – Raven Software updated all character models, used new materials and textures, upgraded the game’s lighting system and implemented modern-day graphical techniques in order to improve the game’s overall presentation. So, and despite the fact that Activision declined sending us a review code, it’s time now to see how this title performs on the PC platform.

Gears of War 4 – PC Performance Analysis

When the Ultimate Edition of Gears of War was released, we were kind of disappointed with its PC version. The game suffered from a lot of issues due to its UWP nature, it stuttered like crazy, it did not support a lot of things (like statistics, fps counter and extended PC options), and was – overall – a big letdown. Fast forward a few months and here we are today with the next part in the Gears of War series that is being brought to the PC by the same team that brought us Gears of War: Ultimate Edition. And it is glorious. Continue reading Gears of War 4 – PC Performance Analysis

Forza Horizon 3 – PC Performance Analysis

Forza Motorsport 6: APEX really amazed us on the PC. While there were some minor stutters (we didn’t experience much to  be honest in that particular title), it ran amazingly well on the PC platform. Naturally, we were wondering whether the next, full Forza title would be as well optimized as APEX was. And it appears that things are not looking particularly good for Forza Horizon 3. Continue reading Forza Horizon 3 – PC Performance Analysis

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is a game that a lot of PC gamers have been looking forward to. Powered by the Dawn Engine, the PC version of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided sports visuals similar to those of its 2015 Tech Demo.
