NVIDIA and Gearbox Have Something In Store for PDXLAN

btarunr · Feb 14, 2012

On the website of PDXLAN, a popular annual gaming LAN event, the organizers posted that NVIDIA and Gearbox Software are bringing something "really special", and that attendees are in for a treat that "will blow their mind" (sic). The more likely possibility is that the two unveil a new Gearbox title which is takes advantage of NVIDIA PhysX; the much-lesser likely possibility is that NVIDIA will demo this game on unannounced hardware. NVIDIA is known for unveiling new hardware to small crowds at gaming events such as these, and we wouldn't be surprised if NVIDIA does something similar.

Colonial Marines demo? Or Borderlands 2?

Hmmmm...think we need a poll on this

Went to Gearbox's website and saw this:

The one game to the far right showed this when I clicked on the link:

What could it be???

radarblade · Feb 14, 2012

Supposedly a game that has to do something with PhysX!

FordGT90Concept · Feb 14, 2012

My money is on Borderlands 2. We've heard virtually nothing about it except that it is coming. It is also a LAN oriented game.

VulkanBros · Feb 14, 2012

Yeh.....Borderlands 2 would be my guess too

Oandwalkaway · Feb 14, 2012

Whatever it is I hope it actually takes advantage of a modern NVIDIA GPU. Be it PhysX implementation that isn't forgettable or Borderland/Aliens/Mystery game that taxes a high-end GPU. It better not be Kepler being showcased running a console port...

HammerON · Feb 14, 2012

Oh but it will sadly because that is where the money is

What are you talking about? You can find so many gameplay videos and dev journals out there, just check youtube

InnocentCriminal · Feb 14, 2012

I hope it's Colonial Marines - gaggin' for that game.

Crap Daddy · Feb 14, 2012

I'd also say Colonial. But no Kepler unfortunately...

I wish, but unlikely.

Steevo · Feb 14, 2012

A Kepler can play Halo on PC with decent framerates?

Sanhime · Feb 14, 2012

Non-beta drivers this time?

slyfox2151 · Feb 14, 2012

wouldn't it make the most sense that both will be on show? AFAIK kepler is being released very soon...

maybe it will be a Demo of a Kepler GPU running a not yet released game from Gearbox?

Animalpak · Feb 14, 2012

too soon for a demo of colonial marines

nickbaldwin86 · Feb 14, 2012

I will be there... I will let you know when they announce

Maban · Feb 15, 2012

The return of Adrian Shephard in Half-Life 2: Opposing Force.....I can dream.
