PC gaming is dying?? Yeah right!

 

[Stimpack]

I still say it's better to worry more about the hardware/price rather than the games included. I can only imagine that AMD gets a pretty nice deal doing this, though.

 

[internetlad]

No "Watch Dogs"? Bummer! I guess that "leak" from a while back was fake.

 

[vmem]

Hmm, they've really got a thing going with Square Enix

 

[falchard]

The thing I find funny about Gaming Evolved is that the games usually perform better on NVidia.

 

[Immaculate]

Hopefully they come out with another revision around the holiday season. I mean they did say they were going to do BATTLEFIELD 4.

 

[ekho]

"PC gaming is dying?? Yeah right!"

No yet dude, not yet.

No "Watch Dogs"? Bummer! I guess that "leak" from a while back was fake.

The "Gaming Evolved Program" is different from "The Never Settle Program". We don't know what games AMD is going to be offering 'if' they have another "Never Settle" deal.

A rather suspect list of titles that I doubt anyone is seriously looking forward to. Maybe Thief will be cool.

 

[TheCapulet]

Hmmm... I might play theif, but the others look like /r/steamgameswap fodder.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - meh
Final Fantasy XIV - horribly botched launch and a asian rpg, so its grind heavy with little end game content
Leisure Suit Larry Reloaded- the good days are far behind this game
Murdered: Soul Suspect - looks interesting but only saw a teaser so far
Pirate 101 - this is a fisher price my first mmo right?
Shadow of the Eternals - eternal darkness successor from what im hearing in the 9 minutes of gameplay thing on youtube... it may be good, but this is SO not a game i would play on a pc. they tricked people that their system was breaking, among other things, and while thats cool and all on a console, that is not something i want on the pc
Thief - i have heard good and really bad about this game, but nothing to show for it yet.

but thats just my opinion on them.

 

[RedundantInk]

Gaming Evolved =/= Never Settle Reloaded. Expect to see the latter arrive whenever the next generation of Radeon GPUs are released

 

[SuperGamerBoy]

Nvidia may have made a huge mistake by not developing hardware for the next-gen consoles and looking at this i dont see a chance of me buying an nvidia gpu again for a couple of years now(Tressfx tomb raider, remember) but again thats just me.

 

[Seanctk10001]

Never Settle and Gaming Evolved are two different programs.

 

[EzioAs]

I didn't know castlevania LoS would came to windows, that's new news to me.

Not sure how your outrage is justified by that list of games, or TressFX for that matter.

There are those who question whether AMD has made a huge mistake by focusing all its resources on console gaming at the expense of its PC gaming efforts.

No "Watch Dogs"? Bummer! I guess that "leak" from a while back was fake.

The leak was listing Grid 2, Company of Heroes 2, Total War Rome 2, Splinter Cell Blacklists, Lost Planet 3, BF4, Raven's Cry and Watch Dogs.

http://www.pcper.com/news/Graphics-Cards/Upcoming-Never-Settle-Bundle-Games-Leaked

So from the list:
Grid 2 was sponsored by intel
BF4 i heard nothing official yet but most likely will be amd gaming evolved title
COH 2 and Total war both are Sega's but so far i can find any info linking those two with amd gaming evolved title. The same goes with Raven's Cry.
Splinter Cell Blacklists are confirm to be nvidia title.
As for watch dogs it seems it will go to nvidia as well when the game was listed as one of game nvidia work with during E3
Lost Planet 3 allready appear in geforce.com game section so it might be nvidia title as well.

Some people mentioning gaming evolved and never settle program are separate initiative but did the bundle giving away non gaming evolved title?

 

[back_by_demand]

Dammit, I was so looking forward to a modern remake of Jet Set Willy

 

[tomfreak]

The thing I find funny about Gaming Evolved is that the games usually perform better on NVidia.

Sorry man, this is only true for Saint Row 3. SR3 is an exception for unknown reason. I put the blame on developer, not AMD. I havent of other Gaming evolved title had this issue.

 

[Steveymoo]

Thief is the only game worth buying on that list.

 

[redeemer]

Nvidia does not have the technology to develop for next-gen

You mean like tomb raider?

Looks like EA and Dice walked AMD's any claim that BF4 has any exclusivity in optimization: http://www.pcgamer.com/2013/06/20/battlefield-4-optimized-for-amd-doesnt-apply-to-every-frostbite-3-game/

DICE has a partnership with AMD specifically for Battlefield 4 on PC to showcase and optimize the game for AMD hardware,” an EA spokesperson told IGN. “This does not exclude DICE from working with other partners to ensure players have a great experience across a wide set of PCs for all their titles.”

why no pc titles???

by the way watchdogs will be this year's great game

some of the title i never heard of but Castlevania has been confirmed will be released by Konami on PC. Maybe they want to get more revenue from the title. i heard the same about MGS: Revengence. Also Final Fantasy XIV is MMORPG from Square Enix that will be available on both console (PS3) and PC. Lastly the new Thief will also head to PC in 2014 if i'm not mistaken
