I was browsing flash games recently and found one called Bubble tanks 2, it's a great game where you have a small tank made of bubbles and fire at other tanks to steal theirs. The more bubbles you steal, the more your tank grows until you advance to the next level. The game can be found here:…
195.blah FPS. My AthlonXP 1.8 didn't bottleneck this one too much so my GeForce 6800 had a decent performance. Compare this to the 2 FPS I get with Nvidia's Nalu demo...
It wasnt easy but i finally finished the low poly. Thx to Brice and Crazy Butcher for the awesome Shader.

[ QUOTE ] What are you guys talking about? XP home was $99 (vista is 199) XP Pro was $199 (vista is 299).

They are the same exact prices. It was $99 for…
I don't know where the complaint is coming for. What did you expect? A new console featuring relatively new technology for $199? It isn't cheap to do the R&D for these consoles.
