They threw us a bone, letting us know that Episode 3 will indeed see the light of day. That's good news. I just hope it won't take them 5 years.
But Jimmy, haven't you heard? In order to play the newest console ports you MUST upgrade your PC every 6 months. In fact, I think your PC won't even boot up if you haven't upgraded in the last 6 months.
Yes, they're not portable. But there are really only two scenarios:
I travel for work: That means I'll be working not playing games.
I travel for leisure: That means I sure as hell won't spend my time playing a game on a laptop.
Medium spec looks "almost as good as Rage on the 360"? They better also have High, Very High, Super High and Ultra High then.
You didn't see particle effects? Did you maybe see leaves dynamically react to monsters charging ahead? Those are particles.
Parts of this physics system were created for "Predators" (which is currently in theaters).
This is of course not real-time simulation. It uses the nodal ICE system within Autodesk Softimage which allows to "write code" by connecting nodes.
Everybody who ever purchased DLC is part of the reason why this milking takes place.
When the first distributors experimented with DLC, they asked us: "Who wants a nice b*ttf*ck for $5?" And lots of gamers bent over.
You're right that most of them haven't played Crysis. But the AI really wasn't all that good. Didn't stop it from being one hell of an enjoyable and fun game.
I agree with sayonara. The 360 is definitely sub-720p, you can tell that the framebuffer has been upscaled.
It will be fun when the pixel counters confirm this. It's plain obvious, but everybody will become upset about the pixel counting anyway.
The PS3 is native 720p without AA. Pick your poison.
Mirror's Edge is not the best example at all.
You should play Batman Arkham Asylum with PhysX all the way up. Now THAT will blow your mind.
This game will be awesome, just like the first one.
I'm curious about PhysX and APEX, the comparisons don't show any of that.
Valve time rears its ugly head. It now says 3 hours to go.
There's a little more to it than floating point performance.
But just to make a point: For $700 you can buy a 5970 with over 4600 GFLOPs single precision and 928 GFLOPs double precision.

How about you read the article?
The author makes a number of very good points as to why GPU and CPU will further DIVERGE in the future.
That's the point. With GPGPU there is no need for Cell because the GPUs are way faster.
2 hours to go. Thank you Valve!
Kinect is a very simplistic system that attempts to track the body based on a silhouette. It can only track very rough motion, and even that is bound to produce frequent glitches.
The eMove rig sounds more like a traditional motion capture system which allows for much more accurate tracking results.
You really don't get it, do you?
The fact he had to list titles like this one just goes to show how few worthwile exclusives there really are.
They've already said that they have a back-up plan in place should Steam ever be cancelled to make sure no customer loses any of their games.
