Assassin’s Creed 4 developers are PC fans
After a lot of talk about the fact that developers are unconcerned with PC optimization, Ubisoft has responded with a brief showcase of the design process behind games like Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. Contrary to reports in the media, Ubisoft designers are “PC fans,” according to a new post by Communications Manager Gary Steinman. Steinman, a former editor of PC Gamer, had additional comments from Ubisoft associate producer Sylvain Trottier, who he says was “re-quoted out of context” in the media with regard to the PC version of ACIV. Trottier feels there is some confusion about how and when PCs are pushed to their maximum during the development process. Before any optimization work begins, there is an earlier phase that is all about discovering where the...

GTA V Online: 4 Ways You shouldn’t spend your Cash
There is absolutely no doubt that Rockstar nailed it with GTA V. Another major factor to the success of GTA V is GTA Online which though had some hiccups when it started but it all got very interesting as they ironed out the bugs and rolled out a stimulus package and gave players a sizable chunk of cash ($500,000) Since then, we’ve seen lots of guides to how to spend the money, including smart suggestions like buying real estate and customising a car to make you a big deal in the online world, but none seems to have identified the pitfalls and mistakes you could make with your blood money.
