Maybe someone with Flash could turn this into a nice little animated gif for those of us that hate flash  :ninja:  :whistle:

One of the guys from England said that 50 people can play online in PDZ. And that as many players as possible can appear on the screen. The possibilities are endless.. I wonder what Sony will do.

hmm.. :/ I actually liked one of the prototype designs better than the current one.. BTW, could someone go through the trouble of posting pics of all the previous prototypes shown in the video? I'd appreciate it. (I don't have access the full show, at least not the modding part of it (pimp my ride))

Test Drive Unlimited

When driving online, players will see other 360 gamers driving around the island and can challenge each other by flashing their brights. There is a map editor that allows players to quickly mark a start point and an end point on the map and decide the rules of the race. Players can wager money or cars when setting up these challenges. Feel like creating a three hour race where the looser forfeits their ride? Press a few buttons and the work is done. The size of the island means that even in these marathon competitions, players may never see the same stretch of road twice.

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 3

The game looks incredible from a visual standpoint. The soldiers walked with smooth barely noticeable motion-captured movement, their bodily actions looking less and less like polygonal puppets and more and more like real human beings. The scrambled, dove under cover, crouched, and strained, wielded guns and shot enemies, and all with superb and believable motion. The soldier gear was more detailed, the fatigues was better textured and more lifelike, showing wrinkles and creases, and the facial detail on each soldier showed off a much more believable human expressions.

the damn xbox 360 console is faster than the machines you design its games on. xbox features a processor of 3.2 ghz with 3 cores. The fastest mac as far as i know is 2.7 ghz dual.

There are no dual-core Macs yet.

The processor that Apple calls the "G5" is very, very different from what's in the Xbox 360. It's the same instruction set, but it's more closely related to the Power 5 (with its SMT support).

I just read that on xbox.com that this machine can do a whopping teraflop.

My 3 GHz P4 can only go upto 12 gigaflops.

I would need 80 P4 machines to match its performance.

To be fair, I'm pretty sure they're counting all three processors PLUS the GPU in that Teraflop calculation.

Not to say it isn't a phenomenally impressive humber. But you can't make a direct comparison between that and whatever GFlop score your P4 may or may not achieve (12 sounds high for a P4).

    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
