AMD made its second release of Radeon Software Crimson Edition for March 2016, with version 16.3.2. The new drivers come with official support for the two popular VR headsets, Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. It also adds support for the recently announced Radeon Pro Duo dual-GPU graphics card. The drivers improve CrossFire performance for "Hitman (2016)" in DirectX 11 mode, and "Everybody's Gone to the Rapture." It also fixes critical bugs related to the Radeon R9 Fury, which saw display corruption on system idle mode; and XCOM 2 stuttering.

THE WALKING DEAD: MICHONNE TRAILER REFLECTS ON THE NATURE OF MURDER

http://www.pcgamer.com/the-walking-dead-michonne-trailer-reflects-on-the-nature-of-murder/

“Taking someone's life,” the sword-slinging death merchant Michonne intones at the beginning of the new trailer for The Walking Dead: Michonne, as she stabs one man in the back, another in the eye, and spikes the hand of a third into a table. “That changes you forever.”

AMD OUTS EVERYBODY'S GONE TO THE RAPTURE ON PC IN RADEON DRIVER UPDATE

http://www.pcgamer.com/amd-outs-everybodys-gone-to-the-rapture-on-pc-in-radeon-driver-update/

I was tremendously disappointed when The Chinese Room announced that Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, which came out last August, would be exclusive to the PlayStation 4. Say what you will about “walking simulators,” but I thought Dear Esther was a powerful piece of work, and I was looking forward to seeing what the studio could do with that success to build upon. But then a few months ago came hope: The game turned up in a SteamDB listing, and then a month after that, the entry was updated with banner art.

 

KILLER INSTINCT LAUNCHES ON PC THIS WEEK, SO HERE ARE THE SYSTEM SPECS

http://www.pcgamer.com/killer-instinct-launches-on-pc-this-week-here-are-the-system-specs/

With the start of the game's third season this week, Killer Instinct will finally roll out on the Windows 10 store. The rebooted fighter has been an Xbox One staple since launch, and while apparently it's pretty good, the best thing about it is it's free. The only potential snag is whether your PC can run it or not, which is why the game will boot straight into a performance test when you load it tomorrow. Oh, and in case it wasn't already obvious: it's Windows 10 only.

>>I can run it, on minimum, but I can run it! Too bad I have 0 interest in this game.

http://www.pcgamer.com/eve-valkyrie-launch-trailer-proves-vr-has-finally-arrived/

It's kinda hard to believe the Oculus Rift is finally shipping this week, but here's a reality check: EVE Valkyrie has a launch trailer. That's CCP's VR dogfighting game, in case you've been hibernating for the last two years, and as the video above will demonstrate, it's very beautiful.

THE NEXT CALL OF DUTY COULD BE SET IN SPACE

http://www.pcgamer.com/the-next-call-of-duty-could-be-set-in-space/

War never changes, they say, unless of course you move the battlefield 100 kilometers above sea level. If the latest rumours surrounding the next Call of Duty instalment are to be believed, space marks the latest frontier upon which the shooty-bang simulator will be deployed.

>>Not even that will drag me back to CoD.
