It would be hardpressed to be worse and more inaccurate than Sandra.

OK, I ran this thing and it still tells me there is insufficient data for analysis under my performance profile. How do I get it to say something useful?

The demo was really cool, but it gave me no suggestions as to how to improve performance.

I liked the demo, but it wouldn't transfer my data & let me see the recommendations for upgrading my system. Of course pretty much all it'd be able to say would be "Go get a GF2 Ultra." A P3 966 & a GF2 GTS is pretty fast. ;)

Plus, like others have said, the chick had no nipples.

Bitch gave me a blue screen and rebooted my machine in Win2k when I hit OK. As soon as I got back into Windows "Uninstall XL-R8ed...Are you sure...YES" :D

well i saw them talking at it over at Hardocp...once i saw the guy talk about naked chicks it convinced me that it was one benchmark i really needed ;)

i ran it and it ran fine. At the end it said i basically had a good video card and a fair amount of ram. Now please excuse me as i have to run this benchmark again to maybe ummmm..improve on my ram score or something :)

It told me that I have a P3-904, 128MB ram and Geforce 2 GTS card (correct).
then it recommended that I get an AGP slot on my motherboard.

ummmmm....gee, thanks for the advice. ??????????

XL-R8R Easter Egg!

Click on the Robot's right nipple (ie. on your left) in the screen that launches the program. That's the same screen with the big "GO" button on it.

I was half hoping the "easter egg" would turn on some nipples, but oh well.

Still pretty funny if you haven't tried it yet.

My guess is he was hoping for the same thing I was, only he thought of it first.

Wow, I assumed he was creative, but I guess he is just a pervert. ;) That might be a good POLL:
Is Eugene a pervert for finding the Easter Egg in the Robot's nipple?

<< Just got a tip from Janne regarding Mad Onion's XL-R8R, check it: In main menu, try pushing left control and clicking the left silver ball thing in the robot's chest >>



This is blantently ripped off of Rage Underground so don't give me any credit. I haven't tried it though. I'm too lazy to grab it on my 56k....

I think Eugene is a perv!

Seriously though i think the program blows. All it did was suggest a GEForce II. What a waste of time!

i think the programs' only use is to collect data about madonions customers...

the demo is poor, at least in comparison to the good old 3d mark demo. i mean the technology is the same, but in 3d mark they use it in a way so that one would not notice that. while i found 3dmark quite impressive, xlr8r only disappoints me. it is REALLY ugly. there is only one thing that i think is really good:
when the old man is holding that cube in his hand, you can see that the mirrors on the cube are defect and dirty. this dirt-effect looks quite realistic to me. thats everything good i can say about the demo...
