Does Ubisoft HATE ATI owners?

Anyway, i was playing the graphically unimpressive game Brothers in Arms Rd. To Hill 30 and i noticed 1 thing. MASSIVELY LOW FRAMERATES. 25fps is unacceptable for a 9800pro running 10x7 high, no HDR lighting. seriously. I looked at some benchmerks for BIA Rd. To Hill 30 and guess what? ATi cards all run massivley slower than Nvidia cards. Im not talking DOOMIII massively slower(which is pretty bad) but as in x800xl or x800xt is barely faster than a 6600gt slower. Then, I jreading the SC:CT reviews abd the option for SM2 wihch is very widely supported by most of the DX9 cards, mostly ATi is completely left out!

seriously, is gearbox/whoever developed splinter cell looking to screw us 9800pro owners over or what is happening?

most of the videogame companies are allied with nvidia, perhaps not as strong as valve is with ati but still, having features that only run on nvidia cards (though they could be implented on ati cards as well) is gravy
