Heroes Of Loot Game Play

Batman: Arkham Origins Gets PhysX Nvidia Demo

Simon Wolfe

September 13, 2013

It seems that NVIDIA and Warner Bros. wanted to let players know what PhysX will be bringing to Batman: Arkham Origins, so they have released a new gameplay trailer showing off just that. From Batman’s cape to the smoke and steam Batman moves through, playing with PhysX seems to make a big difference.

Giving a comparison of Batman: Arkham Origins with and without NVIDIA’s PhysX, the video shows exactly what players can expect. With it set to off, the gameplay is a much more flat experience everything looking pretty static, but with it turned on suddenly there is a whole lot more going on, especially in terms of atmosphere. Sure, most of these things are tiny details, but for those that love that kind of thing, turned on seems the way to go.

Those wanting to see the comparison for themselves can watch the trailer embedded below. Batman: Arkham Origins is set to release October 25th, 2013 for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, and PC.

Star Wars: The Old Republic Still Growing with Update 2.4: The Dread War

Since the addition of its free-to-play option back in November, EA and BioWare’s Star Wars: The Old Republic has continued to grow with each update, and with update 2.4: The Dread War, new 4v4 Player-vs-Player (PvP) Warzone Arenas are being added.

Coming on October 2nd, The Dread War will allow players to travel to Oricon in the epic finale to the Dread Masters’ twisted saga by braving two new Level 55 Operations: The Dread Fortress and The Dread Palace. There’s no better time than now to join the battle as BioWare has made the game even more accessible, implementing BitRaider streaming to allow players into the action faster with a dramatically smaller initial download. And starting today, all subscribers who join or re-join the fight will automatically receive the game’s first digital expansion – Rise of the Hutt Cartel – for free.

Jeff Hickman, General Manager of BioWare Austin, said;

We are constantly looking to improve the gameplay experience in Star Wars: The Old Republic, finding fresh new ways for players to try it out while offering new, higher-level content to our existing community. With the addition of the new BitRaider streaming download, the upcoming Game Update 2.4, which includes two new Operations and the launch of PvP Warzone Arenas, there’s never been a better time to join us.

Also, today you can view the entire live-action Star Wars: The Old Republic video ‘Join the Battle’ – which was teased last year – embedded at the bottom of this article.

The Alienware Command Center has also seen an update. In conjunction with the ALX chassis, users will have 20 colors to mix and match between across 8 different lighting zones for great visual customisation. That’s 25 billion possible lighting combinations. AlienFX is also being incorporated in over 60 big-time videogame titles; healing, taking damage, the completion of missions..all are indicated by the AlienFX lights. Also featured is AlienAdrenaline, a custom game and application launcher, a system performance optimiser and a performance monitoring tool, as well as AlienFusion advanced power management and Thermal and Active Venting controls.
