Hate DD all you want people but fact is fact. DD will take over sooner then many think for the simple reason:
It's cheaper to make your games DD THEN it is to put it on physical media, package it, retail it, ship it.
It comes down to cost savings for companies and DD will save them money. They cut out the middle man and reatil outlets for the most poart and make a larger profit without having to give someone else a piece of the pie.
ND rules. Valve is known to do stuff like this also...when MS is not forcing them to charge.
Very sweet ND!

"Ever heard of Gran Turismo?"
If it's the kind of AA that is in Gran Tursimo Prologue (which is almost none) then they need to come up with a better solution for AA for these consoles.
These consoles can barely do AA to begin with. 2x in some cases. Rare cases 4x. And that's very rare. In most cases NONE.
God who cares what system outsells the other? Unless we personally own the companies what does it matter?
Man these stories are so garbage
The only game this generation that comes close to this type of realism in all areas and not just a few is Crysis and Crysis Warhead
"More Fermi Rumors - Not Good
NVIDIA had a big get-together in Hong Kong last week where a lot of the NVIDIA upper brass was on hand. It is being rumored that the first "Fermi build kits" were supposed to be prepped to go out to AIBs but NVIDIA missed the mark on having its Fermi tech ready to pass off to builders. We also heard the "Gemini" name being batted around as well and this seems to be connected to a dual GPU Fermi card. We still feel as though N...
You can make any game FPS on consoles 60FPS. The only problem is the game rame rates on consoles
This card is overkill unless you are planning on running 3 monitors for Eyefinity display.
You also need a Uber fast CPU and fast memory to make this baby really fly.
They look better then anything consoles can do
It's up to the game dev to take advantage of the features in DX11 just as its up to game devs to take advantage of the Cell CPU inside the PS3 for example. You cannot blame MS for a game company not using the features of DX11 as you can't blame Sony for Game dvs not using the advanatges of the Cell CPU.
Moreover DX11 is a lot easier to code then DX10 or DX10.1 for those effects
These consoles Sweet spot is 720p at 30fps. All the graphical impressive games on these consoles run at 30fps.
People saying they can't tell the difference between 30fps or 60fps are kidding themselves.
Play Fallout 3 on the consoles then play it on the PC. Play ANY FPS game on the PC at 60fps then on a console at 30fps and you will see the difference right away
You would pay that much because it's Sony service????
Thats even more then XBL
Playstation owners exclusively always said paying for XBL regardless was a ripp off. Now many are saying they will pay for this premium...
Hmmmmmm......
Geforce 8 and 9 cards are all pretty much the same but put on smaller dies.
Nvidia just renamed them which IMO is sneaky.
