Well you can count me out as being on of the "usual people". Theres more to these things than just raw mhz! But i understand your comment, for sure there will be poeple who just look at the numbers, in a similar way people look at AMD processes against Pentium processors
Well i think Ati will take this round but Nvidia are planning to trump Ati with updated 8800 ranges.
Man this is seriously fast!! 1gig!!! 750mhz core!!! 2.2mhz mem!!! let the good times roll and the bank balance dwindle!
To be fair Mart, i read the headline in the same way! lol, but once i read the article it becomes obvious! quite a lot of love for both machines and nice to know they have other stuff in the pipeline. Mercs 2 does look interesting though.
EDIT-: oh look, im now in the 4 bubbles crew! anyone wanna join my gang?
ICO is a truly awe inspiring game, and was initially criminaly overlooked by the general public! though i was happy when it was rereleased when Shadow arrived.
.
I hate to be the bringer of bad news now, but in the march edition of Edge magazine, this game recived very high praise for its gfx but more importantly got slammed where it counts, in the gameplay dept! They said the handling is way too twitchy. Overall score was a 4 out of 10. Disappointing for me as i`d had this down as a potential winner. Though i guess i could try myself to see if i like the twitchy nature.
I just watched Watchdog, it was no big deal. They recieved 240 complaints but covered 2 of those compliants in the programme. Both machines were out of warranty, though one of the guys had a replacement but that too was faulty. Things break, so what? Also a funny moment was when the announcer mentioned one of the unfortunate guys "favourite games" was GOW, then proceeded to show footage of GRAW!!! This wasn`t really anything Microsoft will lose sleep over.
hehe! nice bit of fun!
Yes, i to think its Kingboy and Juveni.
Well there is always the official force feedback steering wheel.
Best comment of the year so far!
You aint seen nothing yet! ;)
Nice looking screens, can`t remember ever seeing these 2.
Of course a high end machine today wipes the floor with all consoles, so this article is pretty much defunct now, besides this thread got waaaayyyyy out of hand long ago, lets just all move on shall we, nothing more to see here..................
Certainly wetting the good ol appetite !!! Still no release date reading his comments, though i think ......May or June could be a good time, or they could wait and hit September/October time.
Yeah all of the 8800 range including the "lesser" gts range support now.
"just not the one in the PS3!!"
I`d love to tell you things about the RSX but i`d get shot!!!
"HDR and AA simultaniously was one bonus"
Well this wasn`t a bonus as such, as the X1800 range and above had the "chuck patch" released shortly after the game launched, and which has now been a permanent fixture in the ATI drivers since i think the 6.10`s, and hardly a dent in framerate also (gotta love FRAPS). ATI had the only cards able to do both of course, though now Nvidias new range also has the ability to do both.
Ill pass judgment when i can see something other than dodgy blur-o-vision pics.
I recieved a phone call from Game saying i could reserve for 50 quid for a 60gig version, not a bundle as the headline indicates.
