The higher end model, the 4870 comes out in July. It's a dual slot with 1.2 teraflops of power. Pretty competitive to what Nvidia's doing with their chips. ATI says theirs is about the size of a dime and the Nividia one is about the size of a quarter. With that in mind you can put more on a card and thus.....performance presumably. The 4870 also uses GDDR5 which the Nvidia's do not.

And even more so, that even if the cards have all this great power, will the software available be able to utilize it.

Now THAT's hardcore gaming at it's best! I can only hope a review of Steven Spielberg's Boom Blox will be forthcoming.

The longer it goes, the more desperate EA looks. The bulk of their business IS sequels...how many more times can you make Grand Theft Auto? It's not like Madden where the game is ever evolving due to player personnel changes. But hey...there's an idea, Madden GTA, where he does a play by play of the action. (in John Madden voice) "See now that's a good kill. He got a little blood on him but that's okay. He probably got that hammer at Ace Hardware during their summer breezes sale...."

The ATI guys are very excited about the size of the chip, it's about the size of a dime, versus the new Nvidia chip which is about the size of a quarter. They feel it's going to be a lot of bang for the buck and performance not yet seen in a GPU.

In fact, the county of Los Angeles you can't have more than three dogs without a breeder's license. I guess that makes Paris Hilton a breeder. (She's got about 15 dogs). In fact, I've heard of videos on the internet of Paris breeding.....

Yes, somehow I don't think Justice O'Connor will be as attractive as Mia Fey in Capcom's Phoenix Wright. Justice O'Connor was concerned that most American kids can name two of the three judges on American Idol but not two of the three branches of federal government. Perhaps a show like "Gitmo Waterboarding" would increase interest.

The rule with Apple on new products has always been, wait a year and invariably there'll be a second generation, better, and half the price. Well, with the exception of the Newton...

When did I say I hated the chainsaw in Doom and GoW? And when did I say I refused headshots? I believe it's your reading comprehension that is lacking. I like the name Phlegm. I think it's funny. I'm not selling cologne here.

I tell you what, after tomorrow, maybe I should call it "Puppies" because everyone likes puppies.

I was merely pointing out the absurdity that a Firing Squad reader would find the name (of which I am the creator) offensive, unappetizing, etc given that most Firing Squad readers participate in gaming that involve the above mentioned things.

As opposed to the appetizing experience of chainsawing an enemy in half, headshots where I can spray grey matter everywhere, or having sex with virtual hookers. I think the site you're looking for is www.toontown.com.
