Will creative use A3D 2.0 or did they just buy Aureal to get rid of competition/lawsuit?
(either in the SBLive! or the next generation chip)
I know that ending the lawsuit was one reason, but I'm hoping that they will use A3D 2.0 in their upcoming cards as well, EAX adds alot of feel to game, but so does A3D, they are quite different, and I think a soundcard supportting A3D 2.0 and EAX 3.0 would be pretty damn sweet (hardware dolby digital decoding would be nice too 😉, but at least they have software based now).
