As detailed by Dante on the game’s Steam Community forums, by editing the game’s engine.ini file, it is possible to enable settings like the aforementioned HBAO+ and Screen Space Global Illumination, disable vignette, motion blur, bloom, tweak AA and anisotropic filtering values and more. Activating some of these, like Screen Space Global Illumination, comes with a performance cost.

A few days ago, AMD made its FSR ‘FidelityFX Super Resolution’ technology open-source by releasing the source code, and a crafty modder has now released a modification that replaces NVIDIA’s temporal upscaling tech with that of the Red team. Created by ‘PotatoOfDoom’, the “FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.0 for Cyberpunk” mod is still very early in development and still more of a proof of concept at this point, but going by early testing, the performance of Cyberpunk 2077 in 4K resolution using FSR 2....

Additionally, after a long time of relying more on standalone hits like The Joker and The Batman, Zaslav endeavored to follow in Marvel’s footsteps to create a unified DCU.

It’s very similar to the structure that Alan Horn and Bob Iger put together effectively with Kevin Feige at Disney....

So far, all official communications (including the very last one shared this week alongside the debut gameplay trailer) had only mentioned PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S|X, and PC via EA App, Steam, and Epic Games Store. Of course, it is certainly possible that this is merely a clerical error on behalf of PlayStation Latinoamérica. On the other hand, there is precedent for another upcoming remake adding PlayStation 4 support after the announcement, as CAPCOM did the same for Resident Evil 4....

The debut game of Kojima Productions was originally released on the platform in July 2020, roughly eight months after the PlayStation 4 launch. In Wccftech’s review, Francesco De Meo rated the game 9 out of 10. Death Stranding PC is as polarizing as it is on PlayStation 4, being pretty much the same game. Nonetheless, it is Hideo Kojima at his very best, an extremely coherent artistic vision that is definitely not everyone’s cup of tea....

Fresh Interview Shows No Apple Executive Truly Knows Where the Dynamic Island’s Idea Originated From Japanese magazine Axis did an interview with some Apple executives that also included Vice President of Human Interface Design Alan Dye, as they discussed the biggest visual change arriving for the iPhone 14 series, the Dynamic Island. What is interesting about this interview is that when the question came around as to how this feature was decided in the final iteration of the iPhone 14 Pro’s and iPhone 14 Pro Max’s design, no one had the correct answer, as Dye said the following: It is possible that since many talks were had over multiple years with several people, it would have been difficult to pinpoint who actually thought of the Dynamic Island....
