Comparing PC Game Physics
John Callaham writes "On Wednesday we posted up comments from Havok about rival AGEIA's use of their physics processor in the PC version of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter. Today we have an expanded article with point-to-point comments from AGEIA that address Havok's statements." From the article: "How much interaction do you want in your PC games? It used to be that graphics were the number one factor in picking up a new game but now players are asking more and more about interactions in the environment. One company that has provided such interaction is Havok. They have developed a physics engine that has been used in a ton of games, including most famously in Valve's first person shooter Half-Life 2. Recently, Havok announced plans for a new physics engine, Havok FX, that would use Shader Model 3.0 graphics cards to further enhance game interactions and physics."
Because acting weird in public is a crime punishable by secret prisons, 72 hour observations, and in general a whole bunch of idiots who lost the ability to feel taking things far, far too seriously.
So, some counter-questions, in a manner that you'll relate to:
Instead of arguing, why don't you... read a book?
Instead of insulting people who care about things, why don't you... clean your room?
Instead of replying to this post, why don't you... eat your veggies?
Instead of sharing your views with people, why don't you... brush your teeth?
Instead of realizing that your fucking non-sequiter of an argument is -1 Flamebait, why don't you... say your prayers?
