And that facial animation during cutscenes, good stuff. Pretty sure Monolith has another winner here, hopefully people will actually buy it this time. So Disney is trying to make a martial arts version of Snow White? There's no dwarfs in it but still, come on. Even with Yuen Wo Ping directing. Movie: This is where the law stops, and I start.

The reality of gaming today is that consoles have evolved to the point of being able to compete with PCs graphically and gameplay wise. Because a console is MUCH less expensive than a gaming capable PC, it's only obvious that developers are going to target consoles for games. More consoles = more sales = more money.
The people that complain about console only games are cheating no one but themselves, and all they are doing is missing out on great games.
Now that consoles are down around the price of a decent video card, there's really not much reason to not pick one of the big three up. You're only going to increase your ability to play great games, for not much money.
but then again, that's my opinion, yours may differ.

I know this is off topic, but my shit just seems pretty much unplayable 85% of the time.
Im running an athlon1800xp, 512ram, geforce4 ti 4600... latest nvidia drives..
the demo seemed fine i thought running at 1024by768 with medium detail...
but full vrsion seems like overkill, its just choppy as fuck, and i cant seem to concentrate on playing... everyone on servers says theirs is fine, but shit my game feels junky. any secret tweaks?

It was pretty damn cool. I was interested in their internship program but I found out that when they say they only take sophomores and juniors, they really mean it. I was talking to some CMU students who were interns there last summer, they told me about the classes that were absolutely A MUST before you think about interning at nVIDIA and they're classes i won't be able to take until the fall/spring sophomore year.
anyway, they talked about some cool stuff, and showed some pretty cool demos.
after they got done talking about the company history and they're current line of products (do you know they still ship TNT2s?) they whip out there demo system. its a shiny aluminum case that looks really cool. they didn't tell us the specs but from the boot up i noticed that it was a pretty weak athlon XP (something like 1.3Ghz i believe). It was running a GF4 Ti4600. Of the demos listed here: http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=demo_archive they played Bugs, Chameleon, Grace, Twister, and Wolfman.
One thing I did notice was there were some pretty large frame rate hits on most of the demos (ie, not very smooth) so I'm guessing it was cause of the weak proc or a badly configured test system. (or they were running an nForce2 and they lied to us)
They handed out these really cool looking note books. The bindings were shiny aluminum w/ the nVidia logo impressed on the front cover. that was cool.

Basically, it allows us to monitor what's happening on BF1942 servers through a web page. It looks pretty damn good (as can be seen by the live demo on that site).
Comeon guys - you know this would be eggs-a-lent for the shack to monitor Ashkie's.
