What we didn't know that Battlefront on the Xbox One is already using it. We know that DICE's Frostbite 3 engine already supports DX12. This is a bit confusing though, as Microsoft has always stated that the now cancelled Fable Legends, would be the first DX12 title for their console. This implies that Battlefront is already using DX12 on Xbox One. Please note that during the presentation, the present tense was used. The maps look gorgeous, the frame-rate is smooth and looking up to see Rebel Alliance cruisers and Imperial Star Destroyers duking it out is something that is straight out of the movies.Interestingly enough, Ronald also mentioned that Star Wars Battlefront from developer EA DICE, is in fact the first DX12 title on Xbox One. What I will say however, is that it is easily one of the prettiest games of the year. I mean, it’s solid but I’m just not feeling the magic yet. I wasn’t massively bowled over by Star Wars Battlefront during the beta. Bigger games, bigger resources and bigger quality means massive file sizes.Īnd that brings us to Star Wars Battlefront. 90mb game demos? Say hello to gigabytes of data just for a beta. Hell, back then I could barely look at dodgy anime pictures without my line screaming like a One Direction fan at a show. Games that we simply could not download back then, as those tens of megabytes were too much for a 56K modem to handle.
But those discs are what brought the latest game demos to our doors. PC Format easily had my favourite demo disc, mostly because each CD-ROM had a hidden folder filled with low resolution toilet humour. The one advantage that print had when it came to the rising tide of those filthy nerf herder gaming websites however, was the humble demo disc. BACK IN THE DAY, in a galaxy that was not so far away I can still remember being absolutely gob-smacked when I picked up a video gaming magazine (it was like a video game website, only the news and reviews were two months late).
