Hardware Accelerated Physics....

By this time next year there will be cards and games that will be incorporated into Direct X that will be using video cards that will handle all the physics... Check out some of the demos.... . Apparently there are some MMO's that will be the first to take advantage of this shit. Right now Ageia is one of the first manufacturers.

Now obviously there is nothing that big in the demos.. BUT if you read articles about this shit... this is going to totally change games in crazy ways...


Check them out....

New Spidey 3 Trailer!!

Ok I know that this is 2 postings in a row about movies but they just released the new Spidey 3 Trailer and it looks sick!!!

They say that Topher Grace will be playing Venom which should be pretty cool.


**Update on Superman Returns:


The film was fantastic.. mind you I still dont see where the 263 Million was spent but none the less it looks fantastic. Much better than the last installment with Christopher Reeves which was terrible. They are definitley on to something with this new version and you can bet that there will be sequels to follow.


Cheers.

The 263 Million Dollar Movie.....




Hit play to see the latest trailer.

Superman Returns apparently costs about 263 Million dollars which makes this the most expensive movie ever. WTF, did they actually design a suit that can actually make him fly? Crazy....At this rate Im willing to bet that 10 years from now we will hear about the first film with a 1 Billion dollar budget, and when you consider what top grossing films cost to make 10 years ago I don't think I'm far off.


Ill admit I am excited to see this film, but my level of expectation is going to be very high especially with this sort of budget. The problem I find today is that with the current CG technologies out there anything can be done in films... The problem is though that they focus so much on visual effects and layer it on top of shitty story lines.

Lets see what 263 million does this time around.

**Update: Just got tickets to go tonight to an advanced IMAX screening. WOOT.

Its Almost Time...


Well it looks like in a matter of a day or two Im gonna be a Father again. My wife just got back from her weekly checkup yesterday and they informed her that tomorrow she could be brought in and have a C section. The story is that over the last few months her emniotic fluid levels have been dropping consistently and now its arriving to the point that there is not enough. Its nothing serious and thankfully we were due in another 2 weeks anyway which is why its alright either way.

Ill post up here if and when it happens.

Cheers.

World Cup Is Here!!!!!




World Cup...

The time is upon us where the entire world comes together to compete and play in one of the worlds greatest sports..... footy/soccer/foootball. Of course being Italian and all.. (not sure if thats a good thing) :p Im rooting for Italy but the likelyhood of them wining it this time is a little shady.


Brasil and Portugal are playing very well and I think it may come down to one of those 2 teams. But hey anything can happen, Brasil happens to have my favorite player who I think is the best the sport has and will ever see for a long time, Ronaldinho.

At any rate its about wathcing the games, drinking lots of pints, lots of barbeque eats and lots of trash talking.

I wonder what England or Greece is doin.... heh. Suckas.

Booya.
