ATI crushes Nvidia in Barbie Mermaid Adventure

Nvidia sux. I am getting X800XT to play Barbie the way it meant to be played.

Face the truth, enVydiots.
 
Join Mermaid Barbie? and Samika the seahorse on an amazing underwater journey!

Everyone in the ocean city is preparing for a big celebration, but the light from the magic shell has faded! Help Mermaid Barbie? follow the sparkling path to find the rainbow dolphins and return the light to the shell before the event starts! Hand out invitations, play musical instruments - even create a song along your way! Plus, decorate the city and invite your undersea friends to the magical sea celebration!

* Explore 3 exotic undersea worlds!
* Play 7 fun-filled games and activities! Care for cuddlefish, free Whisper the whale and more!
* Collect decorations and hand out party invitations!
* Help Mermaid Barbie? and her friends compose the "Song of the Sea"!
* Play two of a kind with school fish and watch them dance at the celebration!
* Design a crown and necklace for Barbie? to wear!

And you nvidia owners can keep being brainwashed to buy the newest and fasest card for the largest amount of money for games that dont even require it.

Perhaps if 75%+ of all gamers out there played Doom3 at 1600x1200 with 4xAA/16XAF then I would understand but my 9800 Pro has no problems playing at 1280x1024 on high quality.
 
My daughter uses the onboard video for Barbie Mermaid adventure and she has had no problem with it. Now Candyland, Mr. Potato Head, Barbie Princess Bride, Zooboomafoo, Furby, and Barbie Royal Horse Show are a little sluggish.

But she looks so cute with her little crossed-eyes...and not to mention the tracer flashbacks I get are pretty cool too!

Funny, Gururu!

Did someone hit a nerve DF?
 
Nvidia probably uses driver hacks to replace the rendering of Barbie's hair with custom shaders and static clipping planes to ease the burden of rendering the Barbie Car. We need a full investigation!

Dont hold back your anger... let it all out. We wont tell if you cry too.

Also if you didn't get the point that this thread was a joke were all very sorry but this is a fun thread not a flame thread 🙂

ROTFLMAO!

I can just picture somebody in tears as they write this.
 
So does anyone know if this title supports TruForm? I want to see some extra curved-surface tesselation.
And if anyone knows how to get the "wallhack" drivers to function properly with Barbie's Dream House, let me know.

extra curves...are you thinking what i think you're thinking?
 
I'm not sure if any of my boxes are configured properly.

What are the min and recommended system requirements for this game?

I want to see Barbie in all the eye candy glory.
 
Barbie Mermaid Adventure is nothing but an elaborate tech demo; I don't see why anyone would want to play it. Besides, look at those screenshots: they're too dark. I hate having to switch back and forth between using the magic shell and the other items just to see what I'm doing 🙁
 
BS!

I have reinstalled my 5800U, modded the Humpus tweaks for nVidia, and now have achieved Barbie parity!

Plus, I have the benefit of UltraShadow for her cleavage!
