Comments on: A.I. Cards Coming? http://www.planetphillip.com/posts/ai-cards-coming/ Finishing Half-Life is just the beginning!

When I shoot at the floors or walls, it leaves very realistic looking holes with lots of dust! (not just smudges) When I shoot at one of my namesakes it leaves lots of damage, very realistic!! Maybe I'm offbase but I think it's in the game design or maybe it's my computer setup that's making it happen?? I wish I could have had The formal training to understand this better!!

Actual the PhysX-Card only supports a couple games and in the future the new Unreal Tournament. http://www.ageia.com/physx/ HL2 will not benefit from a additional physics card,simply because the physics-engine implemented in the game is a pure software-solution (havoc).

However, perhaps Half-Life 2 would render the explosions etc more realistically, although it seems pretty good to me also. I thinl CellFActor is one game that needs/reqiures/benefits from having a physics card. For a game to benefit from having a physics card I believe it needs to have been designed for one.

You have to take into account the manufacturer's business model. They may require new products to be released regularly. What I am saying is we may not need one but we may still have the opportunity to buy one. There will lawyas be people who want the "latest and greatest" and this could just be another one of those.

My guess is that with quadcore cpu`s on the
horizon a special AI card will be not needed.

Actual a physicscard is pretty useless. Better spend that money on more RAM,CPU or GFX-Card. My guess is that with quadcore cpu`s on the
