"OpenCL continues to gather momentum on both desktop and mobile devices. The OpenCL 2.0 provisional specification and reference cards are available at "The OpenCL working group has combined developer feedback with emerging hardware capabilities to create a state-of–the-art parallel programming platform - OpenCL 2.0," said Neil Trevett, chair of the OpenCL working group, president of the Khronos Group and vice president of mobile content at NVIDIA. The release of the specification in provisional form is to enable developers and implementers to provide feedback before specification finalization, which is expected within 6 months. As the foundation for these increased capabilities, OpenCL 2.0 defines an enhanced execution model and a subset of the C11 and C++11 memory model, synchronization and atomic operations. OpenCL 2.0 is a significant evolution of the open, royalty-free standard that is designed to further simplify cross-platform, parallel programming while enabling a significantly richer range of algorithms and programming patterns to be easily accelerated. July 22nd 2013 – SIGGRAPH - Anaheim, CA – The Khronos™ Group today announced the ratification and public release of the OpenCL™ 2.0 provisional specification. We are currently waiting on word to see if this title will be made available to additional devices in the future.New generation of industry open standard for cross-platform parallel programming delivers increased flexibility, functionality and performance

But again, please note, you will need a SHIELD Android TV box or SHIELD Tablet with a SHIELD Controller to download and play. We’ve come a long way.ĭOOM 3: BFG Edition is priced at $9.99, featuring zero IAPs. Experiencing DOOM on an HDTV is almost a dream come true, especially if you remember playing these titles on old PC computers back in the day. Having played almost entirely through DOOM II the past few days and a bit of DOOM 3 on my SHIELD Android TV, I can tell you that these games play phenomenally, with zero hiccups in performance. These are the original games, made to perform flawlessly on Android devices with a game controller.

The BFG Edition also contains access to the ultimate FPS classics, DOOM and DOOM II. Inside, you can ‘relive the nightmare’ that is DOOM 3, as you take on Hell beasts during your stay on the planet Mars. By select devices, I mean the NVIDIA SHIELD Android TV box or the SHIELD Tablet.

Id Software’s DOOM 3: BFG Edition is now available on Google Play for select devices.
