DirectX11 Upcoming Games

Now, i'm under the impression that once Windows 7 is officially released that DirectX11 Video Cards will release by the end of this year or possibly beginning of 2010. If this is the case then what games are we aware of that will arrive at that time to utilize the DirectX11 because if there is a game or two that we are aware of I sure would love to read an article just to get an impression. Also, I understand that this isn't the board for consoles, but im curious whether this means that future PS3 and 360 games will also be using the technology or if they will be on their own if that makes any sense.

Couple of things 1) There aren't enough DirectX 10 games...so we don't need DirectX 11 anytime soon. 2) The consoles can't even do DirectX 10 effects so I doubt they will be capable of DirectX 11. 3) Why are you writing in black font? Its nearly impossible to see...the_ChEeSe_mAn2

Actually, DX11 is going to be much easier for developers to work with. Not all advancements are graphical: http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3507

seriously i haven't even seen more then 5 games that support dx10 so whats the point of having dx11 out ??? and by the way its really hard to see your black writing

Writing in black font is not a good idea.

Impressive, most impressive.

I agree, we don't need DirectX11 right now, technology advances too fast. Why upgrade a computer or buy a new one every year unless you have plenty of money to spend to change one or two things anyway?

Btw, please don't use black writing again. Hard to see

If DX11 is easier on developers then I say why not but if I have to buy another GPU to get it then thats just bull... There is no reason why a newer direct X shouldent work on my GPU.

I can't read the OP at all

isn't most of today's cards compatible with DX11? I read a while ago that except for a few small features, you won't need any DX11 specific hardware.

This is off topic, but is anyone else having major glitches with the forums? Whenever I select a topic Gamespot sends me to a seemingly random one from another board, ranging from System Wars to the Final Fantasy Union. This topic is apparently an exception.

About consoles: They don't and can't use Direct X At all. They have their own API. Implementing DX11 in consoles is basically impossible, but reaching it's quality, maybe yes.

And about PC games... Guess we know the one and only API Crysis 2 will support now.
