Remember Me, a 2013 game that still looks impressive thanks to art direction! Yes, the lighting is baked and sometimes can be off, but you see the artistic vision in every detail.

And the same goes for game design: it can be off, but it's anything but generic. The movement system, the camera that sometimes switches to the predefined angles — it's bizarre in so many ways, like a forgotten age of gaming.

The GDC presentation on Rendering, Materials, and Lights in the game! It's amazing how certain features are still valuable and usable over a decade later.

AMD confirmed its Ryzen 9000HX lineup for high-end gaming and workstation laptops. They will be available later this year and the X3D model is announced with its regular counterparts.

It's hard to say how big the difference is, since raw frequency, core counts, and cache are the same. We expect it will be fairly reasonable to buy the previous generation for the majority of customers.

They also confirmed all rumors about the most powerful APU lineup: up to 40 units on GPU and up to 120W TDP for it. Leaked benchmarks outperform RTX 3060 desktop.

The flagship 40CU GPU is using system RAM, but can allocate up to 96GB of it. Which may help with VRAM demanding games and tasks, like AI and simulations. Usually, AMD allows you to allocate up to 50% of RAM on compatible devices.

This (ex-Kotaku) Alyssa Mercante quote definitely won't backfire, right...

One fella has 1080 Ti and Indiana Jones isn't supported on cards without Raytracing. So he made his own version in Unity!

A nice touch on Color Theory that is also affecting modern games: you can have a very limited variety of saturated objects on screen to keep it appealing.

And you have to either desaturate the whole image or limit the variety around 1-2 compatible tones.

Shift Up (the studio behind Stellar Blade) awarded its workers with PS5 Pro and $3.4K New Year bonus.

I'd definitely prefer a PC though 😉

The new FSR 4 will be upscaled with Machine Learning and will not support older cards. The new feature is currently announced for Call of Duty Black Ops 6 only and there are no independent reviews available.

Older cards will have to enjoy the fallback to FSR 3.1. Same as NVIDIA, AMD explains it with hardware requirements — RDNA4 architecture is absolutely different and has AI acceleration modules.

You can have even more fake frames now, folks! Up to three made up frames for every real frame, yay? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQn3bsPNTyI #NVIDIA@GameDEV #Hardware@GameDEV
Fortunately, there are good news too: DLSS now supports the OVERRIDE feature, to change DLSS in games where developers haven't updated it.

And the DLSS itself will use an absolutely new algorithm (which is faster and more stable). They reached the limits of what Convolutional Neural Networks can do and switched to Transformer Model (I haven't heard of). We need more independent reviews to see what it means and how it looks.
