<0> yep
<0> i guranttee u nvidia and ati will start makin em
<0> its gonna be another war lets hope agiea doesnt die
<0> like 3dfx
<1> eh. i feel tempted to become trolled.
<0> >=|
<0> see may
<0> like 2-3 weeks middle of april
<2> ageia won't die
<0> u dont know that
<2> because they got the SDK first
<0> they thought 3dfx wouldnt die
<0> agiea has back
<2> the novodex physics software = glide
<0> but that doesnt mean nothing nvidia has tons of game devs
<0> thing is agiea came up with this ppu idea
<0> there there first for example if a new video card industry decides to release video cards
<2> Ya and Sony is using it on the PS3, at a very low level
<0> that means video programmers wont support it?
<0> they will its new tech get wat im saying right now agiea will win but what happens
<2> They won't be able to compete because developers won't have to do as much rewriting to transfer a game that uses novodex on both sides
<0> when popular name brand like ati and nvidia release there own super ppus more ramped up
<0> cause they got the funds
<2> SDK's shorten development time, that saves money
<0> see novodexs havok
<0> is already partnered with nvidia
<0> and i think ati in there so called
<0> SOFTWARE PSYHICS
<0> which is crap
<3> anyone used the gpio interface before?
<2> nvidia and ati can turn out a PPU
<0> but they also stated that its possible to use havok software psyhics with a ppu card
<2> but it will be vastly inferior in many ways to the ageia model
<0> turn out a ppu wat do u mean
<2> just as 3DFx had the lead
<0> yes it will
<2> 3Dfx died due to bad business/management
<2> they didn't really ever hurt saleswise
<0> wat im sayin is though the software by havok
<2> even the last models like the V5 -sold-
<0> i see it being utilized with a PPU
<0> together
<0> kinda like we have
<0> Open gl
<0> and direct X
<0> only in specficially for the ppu card
<0> and also which brings the mention of possible new features ? like AA and AF for video cards
<2> Actually
<0> 3dfx actually died because it needed multi core cpus it couldnt keep up with the competitors
<2> 1) Ageia will certainly release a more advanced PPU in 6 months to a year after their first
<0> unless agiea seriously got funds
<0> offcourse
<0> there gonna release pci-e version
<0> and even revamped version
<2> My point is
<2> every PS3 game that gets ported to the PC will use the novodex unless nvidia and ati really vastly outsell them
<2> which isn't likely given the widespread knowledge and the way people don't buy tht software is effective
<0> but basically this is gonna take gmaes to a whole new level and well this brings another discussion where are the ****in games
<2> they are capitalizing on the comparison between software and hardware 3D accel
<0> bro me and u can agree
<0> software PPU
<2> and that is how they will succeed
<0> is garbage
<0> i never defened it
<2> Think about what physics really does
<2> think about the GTA games
<0> bro
<0> u took the words
<2> and Rockstar's fondness for Sony
<0> out of my mouth
<0> wat i told somebody 3 months ago
<0> gta yes
<0> picture 4000 peds
<0> and 300 cars
<0> blowin up
<2> the nextgen GTA games will use novodex extensively
<0> picture havin a city
<0> and AI cpu handling more ai then ever
<2> Don'[t get me started on the GTA franchise's potential
<0> yes
<0> bro dont get me started either i hear ya
<2> You know where it's headed
<2> MMO.
<0> but this is wat im sayin on the nvodoex part
<0> see novodex even mentioned they dont want to support ppu for now
<0> but they never said they wouldnt if anything this HAVOK bull**** will be like somethin of wat direct x or open gl methods in games
<2> yes they do
<0> it will be used with the ppu to ehance if anythin or prolly do nothing
<0> u think novodex is gona play dead
<2> I think someone knew it would be in the Rev
<2> and that there's a high probability that's something Nintendo will bust out in May
<2> when it's way too bloody late for Sony or MS to do a -thing- about it
<2> it's their insurance
<2> the controller can be stolen
<0> i dont know **** about nintendo
<2> but not a bloody hardware component
<0> but bro if i had the bandwitdh
<0> they already released
<0> umm demos
<0> of ageia
<0> vs novodek
<2> I've seen them all.
<0> clearly agiea one alot of demos came out
<0> i havent seen em yet
<2> novodex is by ageia
<2> Ok, here's the analogy with 3Dfx
<0> this is wat i read
<2> 3Dfx = ageia
<0> so they support it now
<2> novodex = glide
<2> PPU = voodoo hardware
<0> cause novodex
<0> claimed before
<0> earlier
<0> like i siad i didnt keep up fro a week
<0> >=\
<0> novodex said before agiea isnt needed
<0> software pyshics can be done there own words
<0> unless were talkin differnt company
<2> novodex isn't a company, it's what ageia is using to program the pPU
<0> havok
<2> havok isn't novodex :)(
<0> omg
<0> i ****ed up
<0> the companys
<0> novodex is with agiea i remeber
<0> novodex
<0> rocket demo
<0> i remerb i was talkin about HAVOK
<0> the havok some ****
<2> I didn't see the rocket demo
<0> yea my fault i was talkin about Havok
<2> but I saw alot
<2> nd they looked damn fine
<2> especially if my 2 year old system can run then
<0> the havok company which claims of doing
<0> Softwarew psychics
<2> $300 is cheaper than the 360 or PS3
<2> they call it "middleware"
<0> yea it is
<0> but think about it like this
<2> the game equivalent of an OS
<2> heh
<0> all the ppu is gonan do is expand games
<2> gbut it's bloody software and ageia will pwn them for it
<0> basically cpu + gpu
<0> ppu + gpu
<2> no
<0> cpu well ive yet to see any games
<0> yes
