Bilder von der Gamescom 2009 in Köln

Ein paar Schnappschüsse haben wir beim Spontanbesuch gemacht. Wenig Screens von Spielen, die gibts zur genüge auf KotakuGamestarGamerglobalIgnEtc. Hier gehts zur Galerie

Anno 1404

Ist schon eine Weile her, dass ich ein Spiel so intensiv gespielt hab (oder überhaupt mal wieder was spiele), aber Anno 1404 ist so ziemlich das beste Aufbaustrategiespiel, dass ich je gesehen oder gespielt hab.

Das Video zeigt natürlich die höchstmögliche Detailsstufe, dass schafft mein Rechner leider nicht. Nichtsdestotrotz ist das schonmal mein PC Spiel des Jahres.

Bioshock. Erste Schritte

Nach allerlei Buzz, zwei gelesenen Reviews und der
Erkenntnis, dass Bioshock so eine Art Quasi-Nachfolger
zu System Shock (ja, System Shock!!) ist, hab ich mir
mal das Demo zu Bioshock gezogen. Ich muss sagen, die
Grafik ist mehr als gelungen, wenn auch unser Laptop
mit seiner GF7600Go böse rödeln muss.
Das Video hier liefert einen Einblick wie das ganze
auf einer DirectX-10-fähigen Karte ausschauen kann.
Viel besser gehts derzeit glaub ich nicht:
