Get an up-close look at the ray tracing functionality coming in Unreal Engine 4.22. Learn about the processes and techniques employed to bring cinematic-quality lighting to a real-time piece, developed in collaboration with a ‘soon-to-be-announced’ partner.

 

Hmm, I wonder who the 'soon-to-be-announced partner' is??  Makes me wonder if it's a console manufacturer or not?  Could also be Google.. which would be interesting.  Of course, it could very well be any game developer.  Still should be interesting.

This whole GDC will be 80% google. Even if everything they end up making flops, the industry will still pay attention for now.

google is a never was. they have zero chance

 

enjoy the next Ouya from google, lmao. It's time for real gamers to get behind traditional consoles 10-fold. double down on Physical games. Double down on exclusives. Double down on closed ecosystems. double down on NINTENDO AND SONY.

 

Google, Microsoft, Windows, PC gaming, the evildoers, the the ones who wish us gamers harm... begone from this industry. BEGONE YOU EVIL DEMONS! We don't want your digital future. We don't want your streaming services and multiplatform games. We don't want your shitty business practices, and we will not buy your crap in the future.  

 

google's about to lose a lot of money out of their fat ass pockets. One less air hockey table for the hipster dipshits in silicon valley.

If mods want attention to gaming,  on topic, proper or classy tasty threads I would pin one of these every week.
