"What's wrong with the industry? There are too many games, I see, that don't really strive to stretch the envelope creatively. We seem to have hit this glut, to some extent, of people following tried-and-true, existing formulas and not trying to challenge themselves with every release--to really change consumer expectations and to wow people and really delight them." That one WAS true.
Lucas_BRAM "Posted Jul 17, 2009 12:19 am GMT I don't yhink Cammie awnsered this way because she's a woman, probably it's more because she's an "Executive VP Sales and Marketing" and what anwser you would expect for someone of these trying to keep with her job. Right?" Do you think that anybody (with the exception of masterminds like Shigeru Miyamoto, Kojima, and the rest of the top producers) in the industry cares about the gaming community? All they care about is making millions and millions of dollars. That's why that Nintendo woman took the job. That's why EA doesn't innovate on their sports franchises. That's why Ubisoft, Activision, Bethesda and EA (amongst many others) place SecuROM on their PC games. Bastards
I can play Crysis on Medium with High Quality on Objects at a decent 20 FPS on DirectX 10. Everything at High, 11 FPS. Everything at Very High, 3-4 FPS. Low, 30 FPS. I've just switched to DX9 with High Quality on everything and I'm getting the same results. This is my rig: 500 GB HD 7200 rpm Serial ATA - 3G NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT 1 GB DDR2 550 Mhz (bought it for Christmas, so I'm not going to buy a new one for quite some time) 2 GB RAM (2x1024) 800Mhz PC2-6400 DDR2 AMD Athlon Dual-core 64 X2 4050e @ 2.11 Ghz Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit Service Pack 1 I'm looking for a better experience, so, should I get a new CPU? Thinking of a Quad-core i7, saw one at $290. Should I go for it, or Overclock my old one in order to get better results? I will be very thankful for any help.
