Sony Endorsing Open Graphics Format For PS3
News for nerds writes "At the tech talk as part of the forthcoming SIGGRAPH 2004 conference on August 11th, an open graphics file format for the interactive 3D [videogame] industry called COLLADA will be unveiled by Sony Computer Entertainment. COLLADA is supported by major 3D toolchain companies including Alias, Criterion, Discreet, Emdigo, Novodex, Softimage and Vicarious Visions. If you combine this with the recent news that Sony has joined Khronos Group to support OpenGL/ES, OpenMAX, OpenVG and OpenML, it seems evident that Sony is quietly fighting back against the loudly trumpeted Microsoft XNA (/. coverage) with its plan of an open game development platform."
Incidentally, you made it sound like I was someone who had been making console games for over a decade. Is English your second language by any chance?
"You're right," Fisheye says. "I should have set it on 'whip' or 'chop.'"
Just shut the fuck up dimwit.
If there is any downside to working in the console biz it's having to stomach the drivel from idiots like you here on Slashdot every time a console story is posted.
It's funny that you call me a racist when you then state "Which are you, whiteboy?", wow you really did not think that one through did you. I was merely pointing out that the statement could be read as discriminatory. Rather it was you who lashed out with an obvious racial attack on my ethnicity.
