""Unreal Engine 4"" "The name is Unreal but it has everything real"

After gaining so much hits from the Unreal Engine 3 , the 'Epic Games' released its fourth installation in the series and named it as 'Unreal Engine 4' . Unreal 4 was released in May 2012 and its stable version is UE 4.8 which was released on June 10, 2015. It is written in C++, C#, GLSL, Cgo, HLSL and UnrealScript is removed now.

The development of this engine was started in 2003 and this news was revealed by the vice-president of Epic Games, 'Mark Rein' on August 17, 2005. The development of this engine was done by the team of 'Tim Sweeney' who is the  founder and technical director of Epic Games. Before launching this engine, in February 2012 Mark Rein said "people are going to be shocked later this year when they see Unreal Engine 4". This little speech made everyone curious about this engine.

unreal engine 4 reviewAs the Epic Games says that this engine is for everyone, that's why it is compatible with mostly platforms that are :-
1. Microsoft Windows
2. Linux
3. OS X
4. Xbox One
5. PlayStation 4
6. iOS
7. Android
8. Oculus
9. Rift
10. Ouya
11. HTC Vive

The engine is fully changed and now it comes with many different features such as Real-time Global Illumination, New Developer Tools, GPU Particles, The Engine Outlook and many more.
In the real-time global illumination, everything seems to be real because of the new lightning model. Like, if you design a room with red carpet, white walls and the sunlight streaming on it from a window then the Global Illumination (GI) makes the light falls from one surface to another due to which walls looks real and also red carpet will glow. Many Games have tried their best to make this effect in the past but mostly did it by baking a static image of the lighting of the scene onto the surfaces, but this also leads to a completely static environment which again makes the game looks unreal. But the fact that the Unreal Engine 4 is different from all because it does all this in real-time is a game changes.

Now, in Unreal Engine 4 you will get new and flexible developer tools which enhances the 3D graphical features and makes the environment realistic. The developers can easily preview their games at any instant with the full graphic quality and also can change or debug the code and can pause everything . In addition to the developer tools there is a majestic and upgraded tool i.e., Kismet visual scripting tool which provides a feature to non-programmers to create a wide variety of behaviours in a game such as colourful effects, sound effects, etc. So you can create complete games without using a single line of code . For this, 'Mark Rein' said What the new Kismet means for gamers is the artist's vision flows unfiltered to them, because now the artist can do exactly what they want" .

THE VERDICT :

The UE 4 has superb graphic quality and its global illumination is awesome. The UE 4 mainly targets the eighth generation of consoles, PCs and Tegra K1-based devices running Android. And due to its Kismet visual tool, everyone can make its dream game without using the code, the only need is the IDEA of game. So don't waste your time in thinking and download this or take monthly subscription for your compatible platform soon and start making games of your choice.

""Pillars Of Eternity""- Are you ready for the magical adventure?
The 'Obsidian Entertainment' released its next creative RPG :'Pillars Of Eternity' with the help of Paradox Interactive. Director Josh Sawyer gave this game a classy look and the programmers Adam Brennecke, Steve Weatherly, Tim Cain, Roby Atadero and Brian Macintosh made this game with amazing visuals with the contribution of producers and designers. If you want to purchase this games Cheat Hot-shot Guide ,  Click Here.

Talking about the game, Pillars Of Eternity is an amazing role-playing action video game, which is based on the real-time-with-pause tactical gameplay.Not like its predecessors i.e., Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale series and Planescape: Torment which are based on the BioWare's Infinity Engine, the Pillars Of Eternity is based on the 'Unity Engine' and the platforms which support this game are:
1.Microsoft Windows
2.OS X
3.Linux
The game comprised of fantastic character creation with different races,classes and companions.A gamer can play as an Aumaua, Elf, Godlike, Human, Orlan or as an ugly Dwarf with different classes :Barbarian, Chanter, Cipher, Druid, Fighter, Monk, Paladin, Priest, Ranger, Rogue and Wizard.The Companions used in the character creation are: Aloth, Durance, Edér, Grieving Mother, Hiravias, Kana Rua, Pallegina and Sagani, but all this player customization and characters are quite similar to the 'Dungeons and Dragons' and also like 'Dragon Age :Inquisition' which make this game a little boring.But don't worry because the game have many new features as one of them is, it does not reward any experience points for killing enemies, but only reward points for completing the quests and discovering new areas, which makes this game a bit different from other RPG's.

Many famous websites and Games magazines talked about Pillars of Eternity review, Some of them are:-
3DJuegos :
A game that will go down in history as once did the classics like Baldur's Gate and Planescape: Torment.
PCGamesN :
Obsidian had a daunting task before them: to make a spiritual successor to a series of games that are inextricably tangled up in nostalgia, over a decade after the height of those games’ popularity. Pillars of Eternity is not the Baldur’s Gate of 2015, it’s Baldur’s Gate, Planescape: Torment, Icewind Dale, the best parts of the lot of them wrapped up in something new and brilliant.
IGN Italia :
A masterpiece that looks like it came straight from the golden era of RPGs with isometric view. It is a worthy heir of the games from the Infinity Engine.
PC Games (Germany) :
A fantastic throwback to the D&D classics of yore, Pillars of Eternity is also a brilliant modern RPG in its own right with none of the typical Obsidian problems at launch, be it bugs or performance issues. Tactical combat, excellent atmosphere and great writing coalesce into a beautiful experience. It would be a shame not to play it several times to experience all of the meaningful decisions and consequences. As great as Baldur’s Gate.
IGN :
It honors the classics, brings great ideas of its own, and in the process it emerges as a classic itself. Games like this are always about the journey, and it's sure as hell a journey worth taking.
Eurogamer Poland :
High quality, old-school RPG with a lot of fresh ideas, providing hours of fascinating gameplay.

Gamer.no :
With it its isometric perspective, real time combat system, great focus on roleplaying and a decent chunk of side content, it is a giant ball of playable nostalgia.

dying light game review
Dying light is an action horror survival game published by polish developer Techland and published by Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment for Microsoft Windows, Linux, Playstation 4 and XBOX one. The game was supposed to be published in 2014 but was pushed back to 2015. The game involves everything from spy infiltration, apocalypse and zombie infestation. The game is based in a fiction based city called 'Harran' basically a quarantine zone infected by a virus turning people into vicious, scary and dangerous zombies causing the extinction of human race. Dying Light game starts with Harran being turned quarantine with most of survivors being trapped in the city being helped by the ministry of Harran through the usage of air packages. The main protagonist of the game is Kyle Crane who is sent in Harran city to retrieve a file for the ministry who is being blackmailed on the basis of that file. Crane is ambushed by a mob of bandits as soon as he enters the Harran city, in a zombie encounter he also gets infected and the game involves him to return the file to the ministry in order to restore order in the Harran city by providing the infection cure in that particular file. Dying Light game is an amazing one and will give you Goosebumps when played with high volume as it involves screaming sounds and impact causing blood and combat scenes. 

game review snapshot


The cut scenes are so real that they can scare the hell out of you so it is advisable for faint hearted people to not play the game in dark. The elegant and unique thing about this game is the day-night cycle which is just too good as compared to other games with the threatening electro soundtrack the dark side of the game appears darker. Dying Light game graphic effects are also good with the fact the gloomy creatures coming out of the dark are shown with quiet clarity and impressively. I would rate the game 8/10 taking into consideration the horror factor. 

If you want to gain some hot cheatshots in the game i would advice you to buy Dying Light: Prima Official Game Guide as it includes a spoiler free walkthrough, exclusive in-game maps, skill by skill breakdown and hell more!
