Games which take advantage of quad core?

tomanders91 · 3 Nov 2007 at 10:22

I know there are a lot games now that use both cores in a dual core, but are there actually any games which take advantage of quad? The only one i know of is supreme commander but i found that quite boring, any others? Crysis i know is meant to in the full release as is UT3.

I take it no = know, and ment = meant?

I know that the new Alan Wake game due later next year is going to be heavily multi-threaded, but not sure what games will between now and then.

Not so long ago Crysis and Bioshock would have been firmly on this list...

Alan wake is being build on quad cores and in videos they have said they are only able to do such a heavy physics endgine because of the quads. So it may kill the duals if they try and run it on max settings

O by "endgine" i mean "engine".

Touche, made me chuckle.

Crysis can max two cores but I'd buy the 9800 ultra sli setup first before considering quad as needed or advantageous even

That's pretty much what I meant...not sure about planned though, more like claimed or bull*******.
