Do you, or do you plan, on having any articles on Bit about the "Ageia PhysX PPU" as i can't find one using the search, apart from a few links in the forums?

Would be nice what you guys think to what sounds like a major development in games

great idea for an fps, as the market is just sitting on its hands waiting on the next UT and Q4, however the betting and progression makes this intriguing - tbh a buy for me

sounds good if they have till september to fix its problems.

well i'm sold for now. sounds cool.

looks pretty swish, I'd try a demo

sounds strangly like counter-strike with the "last man standing" bet mod installed .

The mini-bet on soldier is very addictive! http://www.betonsoldier.com/index2.php

Looks like a cool game why does some one from Bit-Tech give the http://www.ageia.com/ boys a call and ask for something to look at at least ?

I'mm sure once this kit is widely accepted the game upgrades e.g. HL2 will come on stream (if this is possible with the technology / software to be retro compat)

Matty :)

Oh man, it's way too adictive!!!

The physics processors should (hopefully) bring some nice features w/out needing super high-end GPU's. I hope there's only 1 physics board and lots of board makers (like the way 3dfx was before they died) instead of a lot of competing board with different standards >:(

This game looks pretty crazy, i've always loved games like this where you start with almost nothing and actually have to know what you're doing to get better.

I just played the mini Bet on Soldier and it is pretty damn cool, we should have a thread to post our high scores in, but I don't know which category to start it in, I'm ranked 275 in the world ^_^.

from just reading that article it sounds like UT and CS bound together, which in my eyes i can see a winning combo :D Wait and see jobbie for me :)

How many times have you been watching the latest appalling reality TV show and thought - "Gosh, wouldn't it be nice if they'd just all kill each other?"

SmashTV!! \o/ Anyone remember that?

Sva4g3&* 29th July 2005, 17:09

Yes, i do, and it's still a game that i play very, very often. By far one of the best made-after-a-tv-show games ever. Anyone else been playin the mini bos?

It's working fine for me :?

EDIT: I see where you mean now, I've fixed it - surprised nobody spotted this before. ;)
