Indeed. Good to see more games supporting PhysX 3.0 (instead of its older versions)

HelpfulGamer4607d ago

Make People believe that Physx isn't a gimmick. Proof to us all, that it can make a sexy shower scene.

Nvidia did made that Sexy Mermaid Demo for GeForce™ 6800.

Next gen PC games only. ~Article

Article has been updated. Hmmmmmmm, seems that the PC build of UE4 will support PhysX 3.0 (with certainty). Curious as to why there is silence regarding the console front (could be cause of the fact that they're using AMD's GPUs?)

Pandamobile4607d ago

Most likely. Getting GPU accelerated PhysX working on consoles would likely require some collaboration between Nvidia and AMD.

Except for Nvidia already said they are supporting the ps4 with Apex and PhysX

Pandamobile4606d ago

But not with GPU acceleration. Next-gen consoles support PhysX the same way current gen does. It's calculated on the CPU.

limewax4607d ago (Edited 4607d ago )

Well PhysX 3.0 on consoles could of course be a hard sale to Nvidia, but it's also a perfect match since 3.0 has significantly better performance than the previous builds.

Unfortunately even if it did end up on the consoles though, it probably wouldn't perform quite as well as on its native cards. Plus it would still be incredibly power hungry. Even a high end card normally needs a middle end card as back up to max PhysX settings on games that use it heavily, especially when paired with tessellation.

I doubt the console GPU's could push it all too well right now. Maybe a few years down the line though with some more optimization to the source code.

cunnilumpkin4607d ago

it likely won't be happening on consoles, not because of the NVidia/amd thing

more likely because ps4/xbox1 have laptop gpu's in them

Good, I don't know why it was removed in the first place.

FinalFantasyFanatic173d ago

They didn't want to spend time/money keeping it updated for modern cards, I understand why they did it, but I'd rather they keep it going since it's removal makes a handful of popular games run worse.

Furesis173d ago

wait? i thought it was a hardware thing, so you're telling me it was there all the time and they just... turned it off?

fr0sty173d ago

Or they ported it to run on modern hardware with a driver update?

Notellin173d ago

PC gamers got the brand they deserved in Nvidia. They've been anti-consumer since the beginning.

MrDead173d ago

Yes, I deserve my RTX 5090.

babadivad173d ago

nVidia lies about shit like this all the time.

lucasnooker173d ago

That’s an excellent update. I thought this had something to do with the hardware itself and not just a software patch but either way this is great news

hot4play172d ago

Great news! Initially was disappointed that my Steam copy of AC4: Black Flag wasn't compatible on my new 5070 ti laptop but since the update, happy to say I have downloaded and played the game successfully (Black Flag's my favorite AC).

Someone else was commissioned to do the music and another person modelled the batmobile. Links to all involved are included in the article.

They should have been made a batman game for the best batman movie. This looks amazing and now I must watch the movie.
