There is no Ignoring DOOM III

Nice to see a video game article from a mainstream news agency, that isn't knocking the industry for too much violence and creating killers and other such nonsense. No politics, just a review of what was presented at E3. The article is from MSNBC.

Yeah no doubt. I just like this part..

Quote:

Doom III is very much hardware driven, and one of the controversies of this year’s E3 was that the game was demonstrated on the latest ATI graphics card rather than a card from NVidia.
“NVidia has been stellar in terms of driver quality and support and doing all of the things right,” says Carmack, who has been an outspoken evangelist for NVidia’s GeForce technology. “For the past few years, they have been able to consistently outplay ATI on every front. The problem is that they are about one-half step out of synch with the hardware generation because they did Xbox instead of focusing everything on their next board. So they are a little bit behind ATI.”
“I told everyone that I was going to demonstrate Doom III on the best hardware, and there has been no collusion or kickbacks or anything like that going on. Our objective is the technical merit.”
“The new ATI card was clearly superior. I don’t want to ding NVidia for anything because NVidia has done everything they possibly could; but in every test we ran, ATI was faster.”

R300 is smoking!

So eat ATi dust, you Nvidiots.

Cool man, what part? I live in S.E. Portland.

R300 is mine damn it; I'm guessing it will cost around the same amount, $300.00 that the Radeon 8500 cost upon release.
