lol, no disagrees yet :P
2 chips on one card. whoppee, that sounds like a cheap card :P
Expect this to be in the excess of $800.
I am truely sicked by Microsoft's strategies.
It seems to have only gone downhill after the release of Windows XP.
They monopolize their main market, the OS market, which is an okay by me if they provide good service, but the fact is that Windows Vista is a simple fiasco. Why?
The reason is simple, they are dedicating WAY too much resources trying to screw other industries up and not trying to improve their OS products. This high definition war is ...
you do know that 100GB Blu-ray is in development right?
I'd say he completely misses the point.
This is a Format war. The best choice is to have one standing and the other one back down. The point in focusing on the "insufficient disk space for True HD" is not the "True HD" or sound quality, but actually the "insufficient disk space" part.
Sure, today we used a lower bitrate but we didn't suffer any real "sound quality". No big problem
Tomorrow we start to notice some rea...
Realistically you would have just totaled your car and much of the energy from the collision would be absorbed by the carframe.
However, there is no damage setting to the GT5Prologe demo, so you should expect a elastic collision.
As far as elastic collisions goes, you being nudged back onto track and the other guy being shot off the track seems perfectly reasonable to me.
@jib
you mean at about 1:00?
There was only two instances where this driver on porposely drove onto the grass. In the second instance he didn't hit any other car
In the first instance, he turned after he resumed onto the asphalt.
So I don't see any problem with that.
Anyway, in either instance, there was minimal turning on the grass. (very minor corrections only) Therefore, I don't expect any spin, to be totally honest.
The reason the car doesn't skid on the grass is because he was driving STRAIGHT. There is minimal side forces resulting in a skid when you are driving STRAIGHT, thus there SHOULDN'T be a skid.
Try turning on the grass or the sand. You'll see how far you can get.
Edit: please would someone tell me why driving straight on sand or grass would make you skid to one side or the other? I would understand losing grip, but since you aren't turning at all, I wouldn't understa...
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD Driving
This guy took so many shortcuts that it was a pain to the eye to see.
Not only does the driving suck, the video capture also sucks. The demo itself looks much more crisper and the framerate was also much more stable.
Bad choice for a video if you ask me.
The AI is actually very agressive and makes way for you a lot of times (when you can obviously overtake them)
What is shown here is bad driving, where...
I've been watching the forum post from before it got any N4G coverage
Finding out the native rendering resolution is simple, all you need is a screen large enough to count pixels to do it... (B3D forums has the exact way to do it)
Why I would believe them? maybe because many of the posters there are actually GAME DEVELOPERS
He's also terribly ignorant that simply going from 480P to 1080P would take up at least 4x the storage space for Video (assuming similar levels of compression). Audio? how about 7.1 uncompressed?
There's just no way to be able to put that on a simple DVD.
Doing something simple as changing the resolution would turn something around 8GB way up to 25GB, if not more. That's the value of these disks.
If the writer is ignorant as to ignore these, then he can go...
Yes what you say about putting in a plastic box is definately true.
But it's not an excuse for overheating.
For a electronic product nowdays, overheating under any circumstance that doesn't involve deliberately heating it is not acceptable IMHO
A: How does an Xbox price cut affect PS3 sales? that is really funny
B: IF and ONLY IF it is selling well, why doesn't it seem to be any factor in this format war?
C: Same as B, you're jumping way too fast to conclusions
D: How so? is there any one thing that makes the Blu-ray so much more expensive than the HD DVD? the answer is NO. Their parts are largely the same/similar, so costs are similar.
E: Really, so how many of those are actually HD DVD?
F: I DOUB...
A is a very minor factor, IF a factor at all
B doesn't make any sense as Xbox doesn't come with HD DVD and very few people even buy them
C Same as B
D Equally likely from Blu-ray camp. HD DVD are cheaper but still sell more badly
E I can say the same for Vaio Computers. No sense here. Plus not too many students will buy those models anyway.
F That makes no impact on sales
G how about more movies on Blu Ray? Where did all the other good movies go? You ...
Don't worry, it's back
For those who keep on saying that Sony should announce the price cut earlier, Price cuts are ALWAYS going to be denied until the last minute. It's the only way to maintain sales until the price cut. Think of it. If they say today that the price cut will come in August, would you buy it now? Simple logic :P
That, and handing out cash to existing developers, are VERY different
add bubble for noticing "sponsered by Toshiba".
sharp eyes.
Use the law when you don't have any other way of beating the competition.
Real clever.
The point of this is that it is an HDCP Stripper, so that HDMI actually works on something like Dell 2405, which is something that supports 1080P, but doesn't have HDCP. (in fact I have this exact device coupled to my Dell 2405. Works as wonderfully as just a 2407.)
If you have a HDCP enabled monitor, this is of no use to you. But if you need to output your HDCP protected videos onto a non-HDCP compatible monitor through DVI/HDMI, this is something that you NEED or else you wil...
"The whole thing smacks of desperation."
I have to say that I feel the same way.
I don't see any reason that Blu ray players can't be manufactured in China if HD DVD can be.
BTW, high tech things made in China are USUALLY controlled by overseas companies. Manufacturing players are no exception.
small problem with the response
The GP is more concentrated on the issues of green "DURING" the manufacturing process.
here, Nintendo seems to miss the point in reassuring that they meet the European safety standards.
Of course they meet the RoHS and safety standards. If they don't meet them, they wouldn't be on the shelves and HUGE lawsuits will follow.
This is like addressing a child labor issue with "our salesmen ar...
