I have LOTR with DX10 on my dual 8800 GTs and I cannot tell any difference. It's good for a press release but for the user, there is no compelling reason to downgrade to Vista just to run LOTR (a boring WoW clone attempt) with DX10. |

Who cares?
LOTR is a such lame mmorpg...
Guild wars is xxx times better and it's free to play. |

DX10 games are beginning to sound like the ageia physics card, nothing but hype and a LOT of cash for their worth.
God, PC gaming has become such an anti-climax lately..... What a bunch of $hit titles that haven't lived up to their expected praise.
SH4,World in Conflict,Bioshock,ArmA et al and the absolute best one with sales that couldn't equal a days takings at a GAMECUBE store; Crysis!
disillusioned is an understatement
The PC is a laughing stock, inc the fact we are coerced into upgrading for DX10 garbage games.......someone is taking the pi$$ at out expense.
Last good game i played was Oblivion; modded of course. At LEAST it WAS a game that actualy played and was patched pronto!
With the above crap titles we have to beg with 'cap in hand' for them to FIX THEM!!! Otherwise they stay broke. Even then we're still waiting for patches long after they are removed from our machines.
What the hell is wrong with dev's these days? No pride left and no care for the gamer.....bah humbug, post christmas gaming blues
We need gaming back and no bull$hit PR or fancy DX10 graphics which mean jack $hit to gameplay! |
