MaximumPC stopped by during GDC and got a look at the Ashes of the Singularity demo, and also talked to Oxide Games and Stardock about the game, Nitrous engine,Mantle, DirectX 12, and Vulkan.

Tom's Guide had a look at Ashes of the Singularity at GDC, and here's their first look. "Instead of focusing on smaller tactical battles among a handful of units, Ashes of the Singularity takes inspiration from earlier titles such as Galactic Civilizations III and Sins of a Solar Empire to bring strategic combat that's more macro than micro. In Ashes of the Singularity, resource-gathering has been simplified to allow the player to do what's really important: Manage thousan...

Cities: Skylines comes out next week and it looks like it could be a great city builder game. I've been watching many of the preview videos coming out for it, and it seems to learn from some of the mistakes made in SimCity. I took advantage of some of the pre-order sales and grabbed it as I was going to get it on launch anyways.

Game Informer has a quick preview up of Ashes of the Singularity. "Today at GDC, I got to see a demo from Oxide Games' newly announced RTS, Ashes of the Singularity. It features an interesting approach to unit management, nicely lit explosions, and, oh, a few thousand ships blasting at one another with lasers and missiles, thanks to the studio's Nitrous engine. The game's set in a far-off future, where mankind has transcended its flimsy physical husks in favor of an up...

The wars of the future aren’t fought with a mere few dozen units, but thousands of deadly robotic constructs smashing each other into scrap only to be replaced by a steady stream of fresh war machines from the endlessly churning factories of the post-humans and their sentient AI foe. The technological singularity has ended life as we know it. Humanity has abandoned its crude organic bodies for the fully networked existence of artificial, augmented consciousness. Yet as the post-h...
