Mark Rein discussing in an interview with cvg that DX10 adoption is being hurt by console graphics technology.
FuRuy has opened a Twitter account called “Project Alice” teasing a new game announcement on April 25 at 20:30 JST.
Filing a false DMCA claim costs nothing, requires no proof, and can destroy an indie game's launch in minutes. Fighting back can cost tens of thousands of dollars and take weeks (if you can afford it at all).
Copyright is copyright. DMCA is a good thing that protects creators IP., revenue and usage. and you can absolutely appeal a wrongful DMCA takedown. It’s happened to me. Was easily resolved.
it's a good thing, but it's also long been reported, across a variety of industries and websites, that currently the system is ripe for and full of abuses. From fair use strikes, to matters like the one reported in this article. It's clear the law needs some tooth to punish bad actors and that parameters need to be set in how reports are filed; ie human review of said content and not some AI bot false flagging stuff. As is the system is far to easily abused by those who have motive to suppress and flag content they have no business or right to.
No system will ever be perfect, but there needs to be a review, unless it blatant.
Until there's genuine consequences for this type of abuse, it'll keep happening across all media. DMCA is in principle a good thing, but it needs an overhaul.

Then he should just develope for PC only if hes gonna talk down to consoles that way, which by the way probably provides for most of his income.
Consoles are were the money is. Game creation would not been as big as it is without consoles. Home of the true games. But i know pc counts for alot aswell as i have a pc too.
Hmmmm....but what's the point in creating games with graphics that are fantastic and look almost photo-realistic.......when only a handful of people have PC's powerful enough to run them at full potential?
and absolute BS. Just because MS introduces an new Graphics API doesn't mean it holds anybody back. They still want to support all DX9 machines out there, no ? Also, the PS3 uses OpenGL/ES anyway, so they have to code some of the DX10 gimmicks for the PS3 customized anyway. Have no idea if there is a chance to do that with the 360, but that will get stuck with DX9, I'd suppose.
Sure, MS did in DX10 what you'd have to do again on your own (and is possible, see KZ2 lightning engine). It just more convenient to use DX10. I still believe, especially with the PS3, there is a lot potential to even match current high end PCs, simply because, over time, the CELL will add more and more to fill the gap which the RSX can't handle. Its not out long enough to do so, yet.
I haven't heard about these things in the 360, yet. I'd just guess you wouldn't want to dedicate a core to do gfx only, but maybe there is still more room there, too.
To know you have a fixed feature set allows you to utilize the HW to a higher degree then you can on a PC, because it will change guaranteed within 6 month again. It requires some skilled people, though. And technology is getting complexer. Finding the right people is becoming harder. Sure.
I agree, I like Mark Rein, I think he's a genius, but I don't like this condescending attitude he just took.
