Frostbit, the game engine which powers some of the most
popular blockbuster titles is seen running on ipad……….but what does it mean?
A couple of screenshots have been released by the frostbite
team showing a demo of battlefield running on an ipad. Remember that
battlefield is one of the most demanding games in this generation and most of
the current computer hardware cannot run the game but the ipad managed to run
parts of the game which is very impressive
The team said that they used the apple’s new graphics
technology which is called as metal; the team informed that they had to make
some sacrifices to run the tech demo nonetheless, its impressive on part of
apple to make devices such capable
What this indicates, that I feel, is the console gaming is
heading towards its death. With the rise of portable smart phones and devices,
the gaming industry is shifting its
focus on casual games than the core AAA titles and now, even the AAA titles are
seen running on iphones and ipads, this definitely will lead to the death of
console gaming although pc gaming will survive
The tech demo is just to measure the performance of a core
game on portable device but do not expect any console game releases on the
portable devices
gaming is heading towards an interesting direction but its nothing bad, just the evolution of we play games is what i see
