Meh. I'm still waiting for AMD to implement thier idea of physics processing which was unloading some of that work to an extra GPU like an X1600 while your using your nice new 2900 as your main GPU. With better multicore technology comming out though I'm simply expecing development tools to come out that will offload that work to the GPU and extra CPU's. It seems better than writting code for a PPU which few people have.

If I had a pound for every new hardware or software technology that John Carmack didn't approve of, then I'd probably be almost as rich as he is by now. ;)

However, in this instance I do agree with him that the current implementation is sub-optimal and not sustainable in the long term.

"there are still no games that takes advantage of PhysX hardware."

"very few games benefit from PPUs these days"

ummm, I might be mistake but "no games" and "very few games" are two different things. I know for a fact there are games which support the hardware. ??? man sometimes these articles are just plain poorly written.

I can't believe this dipshit, motherfucker disses PS3 all the time cuz the BEST console in the world has something to battle with, due to late release. John I hope you read this, and I hope your beloved Microsoft collapses cuz they suck! John... you need to stop kissing Microsoft's ass for a second!

I guess the developers of Ageia don't believe in John Carmack also. We have tons of computer evolution opinions proved to be totally wrong. Quake and Doom are obsolete compared to the new generation games. For me, John looks like an old fox who is too lazy for new technology.
