Now most major developers are supporting PhysX. This is really good news.

How will this work on a xbox 360? Maybe THAT right there is physx biggest problem, games don't get developed for the PC, but for the consoles. AFAIK those consoles don't have cuda capable videocards, so console versions of the game simply can't have stunning physics effects. Mirror's Edge is getting 'tweaked' for it, but thats all extra cost, even though they can't sell the PC for more money.

Seriously...these days consoles dictate a lot of what gets to the PC so it'll be interesting to see the adoption of PhysX in console games...if it can be done.

your first paragraph felt like a pr statement. Do you really like nvidia so much that you'd want an nv gpu in every console for the sole purpose of providing ragdolls²? too expensive for me, no thanks

i don't care about the consoles, but the thing is, the wii is selling so well because of its gameplay over graphics mentality, i for one agree with that mentality

Don't worry, nosfe. Some people just prefer the "ooh!" & "aah!" of rippling cloth over the quality of the gameplay itself.

no, high end gaming isn't for everyone, but high end gaming is still gaming, and not watching, a crappy game is still a crappy game, no matter how high you set the resolution or eye candy at

Physics adds more debri and banners that flap in the wind. I can't think of another feature added to video cards in the last several years that added a feature for game play. So this is great news.

I get it. You are happy with integrated graphics quality games. Some of us like a little more (well a lot more) than that.
Euchre has great game play. For some that's all they need.

What is your point? A crappy game is still a crappy game with Physx.

No, it's just apparent that for some people, shiny things hold great appeal. Personally, I'll take an engaging storyline over a realistically flapping flag. But to each his own.
That's the issue though, his GPU company isn't giving them anything like that for free, they're too busy blowing sunshine hoping DX11 comes sooner than later. But ya there's no doubt any game is going to be better with PhysX than without.Originally posted by: Ocguy31
But if your GPU company gave you that flapping flag for no extra cost, and includes it in the drivers.....
What is the issue? You are complaining about free realism? You are acting as if great gameplay and physx cant go together.
