It would have been a much bigger blunder if it'd be released early.
I am in beta, seen it myself, and you can look on beta forums yourself, the new content was NOT READY by the end of November.
I have lost some cards (without overclocking them or anything) to badly designed passive cooling, so inherently I considered it somewhat malicious;)
The point about the fan was that the cooling mounting is standardized nowadays, so you can stick fan with little effort, as opposed to designining your own scaffolding for it:)
Cooling can always be made active these days.
Just buy something like Zallman Cooler (http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N8 2E16835118117). Installation (which replaces the original cooling) is 10 minutes, and the cards these days are made with standard mounting, and it's usually gets your card down 10-15 degrees. The only drawback is that it makes 1-slot card to be 2-slot wide.

I remember couple of years ago "Chronicles of Riddick" was applauded for good gameplay, (movie was pretty bad though, according to critics). Not seen/played any of those so wouldn't vouch.
Slashdot Mirror
Thanks, thanks, be here all week
Don't confuse "general Slashdot public" with "general public". Unfortunately, general public does not really know/care about DRM...
Considering this is /., the article quote seems a bit redundant

Seen him last year at SIGGRAPH, in Emerging Technologies booth. Very nice, but human controlled.
Well, indeed so. My bad then.

Blade Runner (the game) by Westwood ( http://www.adventuregamers.com/article/id,14 ) is a good example of very decent game-by-the-movie.
