Here are all the tweets combined.

It is extremely frustrating to see an article criticizing work you did at a former employer and not being able to comment that the person who you are quoting from was just completely full of unsubstantiated [expletive]. Thanks, Forbes. . . . [A]nd while I never did, and certainly do not now, speak for nvidia, let me say that in the six years I was in devtech I *never*, not a single time, asked a developer to deny title access to AMD or to remove things that were beneficial to AMD.

Good times!

I'm not a hardcore gamer so I don't really get it. To me it looks like gameworks by design hides(smokescreens) what AMD needs to see to improve it's performance.

The quote doesn't seem to make sense to me. He's an x NVidia guy part I get. What was done in the past doesn't represent what is currently being done....Or am I missing something?

Not sure what team your trying to riot.

DO you guys remember the discussion at Hexus between AMD and nVidia end of 2009? Great stuff.

BTW, i like this answer:

   @basisspace @killyourfm Are you refuting the fact that GameWorks locks AMD out from optimizing the game via their own drivers efficiently?
2. John McDonald ‏@basisspace 3 Std.
   @TheMattB81 @killyourfm everything visible goes thru the GPU. Everything thru the GPU goes thru the driver. So yes, I dispute it.
