Direct X11 Games, anytime soon?

dx9 still looks nice
Indeed. I am currently re-playing HL2 for the first time since I finished it when it first was released. I am using the booby mod (hi-res alyx one) and the game looks pretty stunning and I'm just on the hovercraft/canal bit.

Iirc HL2 was one of those games that represented DX9 api's horribly well.
 
Iirc i read a document that explains i think by amd that shows its easy to convert dx10 to 11 games. So maybe well see some dx11 patches for games in the future?
 
I have never understood why everyone always gets so excited about the release of a new version of Direct X. It's not like the difference between new games consoles. With PC games it is usually the skill of the developers and how they create their engines and games which will make a huge difference compared to what versions of Direct X they are supporting, which from my experience, carries little siginificance.
 
Not to hijack your thread Daz mate, but I never knew Crysis 2 is coming out *scratches head*. New game engine too. It might actually be time now to look at a new graphics card
 
Dx11 is what Dx10 should have been it doesn't slow everything down that use's it like DX10 well thats the idea it should increase proformance of all games that use it.
Crysis 2 is totaly different from crysis it now uses a scaleable engine so that even midrange pc's can run it fine and also it being made for consoles as well not just for the pc
