[FAST6191]

I did not see it posted elsewhere and many people seem to have enjoyed the game around here I thought I would get some discussion going on. Anyhow the specs for the sequel/prequel called clear skies had specs released.

The article linked had some pictures of the same scene under the different conditions (and for once it made some significant difference ignoring the last two) but they are some serious specs. If nothing else it will lessen some of the crysis "jokes".

Good to see stuff not jumping on the DX10 bandwagon as well.

Looks like I will be fixing my board (one graphics card down right now due to the stupidity of asus)
Of course there is always roadside picnic (the book that spawned it all) and the film stalker/???????.
