Transgaming and Transitive E3 Announcement

Posted by timothy on from the flight-sims-please dept.

An Anonymous Coward writes: "Breaking news today on the Transgaming website. Today they announced an alliance with the company Transitive. Here's their headline: 'Los Angeles, Ca. TransGaming Technologies, in partnership with Transitive Technologies, unveil their game-porting technology that can allow Windows-based x86 games to be simultaneously released onto multiple platforms. These include the Sony PlayStation 2, Apple Mac OS, set-top boxes, PDAs and wireless devices.'" There's more info on the Transgaming Site. Since Transgaming has ported The Sims already, it's a lot easier to believe that this isn't just vapor.

    Gak, wish I had mod points so I could mod your reply up.

    Good points, although I'd never say never if I were you. After all, if they can design an entire virtual machine that can abstract hardware calls to different OSs, I'd imagine that they could do something similar for DirectX/OpenGL.
