Today I present 5120 by 1600 screen shots of the Shogun 2 Total War Demo , running on Steam and what passes as my gaming rig this week .... Creative Assembly and Sega's latest Total War iteration impresses from the moment it boots up , effortlessly detecting my 5120 by 1600 res , all cgi also stretches across multiple monitors . That is cool I tell you , the number of games I play where the intro video has black borders , whilst the main game runs at far higher resolutions really annoys . Shogun 2 does not!
Shogun 2 has a very impressive engine , in that it scales down to an atom powered tablet like the joojoo , or dials up detail to suit more specialist gaming pcs. Oh it is not perfect yet , but is our hardware?
If you were thinking that Total War was getting olde , fret not , Shogun 2 is what makes PC gaming and Steam such guilty pleasures , high art ,culture and history as gaming , and the music is simply sublime ... For the budding young Sun Tzu there is some strategy in there too..
Shogun 2 can run on humble hardware but it is a game that cries out for multiple monitors , and in the distant near future a Kinect control scheme , or even a Playstation Move one , think about it...you have seen the generals in Ran
, waving the butterfly shaped batons , your PlayStation Move controller would make a perfect sub, and eureka it is authentically Japanese too! Genius ... Don't laugh it worked for R.U.S.E!
These screens are from the same historical battle I lost on the joojoo .... pre my 72 hour Crysis 2
Demo frenzy ( 71 hours to get on a server ..1 hour of fps action )....too many good games on PC this month ....
