There hasnt even been one relevant first person shooter since 1999.

nextgenjoke

Call of Duty Black Ops 2.

call of duty and halo were never relevant to pc gamers  as far as multiplayer.

Yeah, I saw that when they were boycotting MW2. lol.

Nowadays, even console FPS are better than duke nukem 3d. Get over it, buy a console, or upgrade your PC.

video cards are not required for gaming they are only for graphics whores who care more about graphics than gameplay.

 

nextgenjoke

No it's not, I upgrade my GCs to get better frames and play latest games.

it's just graphics video cards dont improve gameplay.


They do.
HL2's Physics couldn't be achieved with 1999 Cards, And the gameplay IS physics.

You wouldnt be playing any pc games with linux on ps3 without software rendering notice how you see people running quake 2 on ps3 with linux. You cant access the gpu on ps3 with linux lol quake 3 requires a gpu and it prevents it from being played on ps3.

(GPU FTL) (CPU FTW)

You can play games without a GPU, you cant play games without a CPU.

Someone is still stuck in 1999 with the GPU-conspiracy. In essence, a lot of gamers thought the introduction of GPU's were another way to force games behind paywalls by companies like IBM. Looks like we have a survivor from that era. He belongs in a museum.

Games should support software rendering not every intergrated gpu is powerful enough to game. CPU is better for gaming than intergrated.

Pc gaming was alot better when video cards were optional run software mode or hardware mode.

 

Only supporting hardware mode kills off sales of the game.

Can you show me a link that a PC will run without a video card. I've always thought even an ancient PC required the video card BIOS to boot first before the motherboard BIOS for the PC to post.

Realize this is just some fun trolling for you, but AMD has a grip on console gaming hardware and standards and that can extend to PC. APUs are the future. I have a 3870k APU that plays RE5 at console settings. 

Pretty soon the PC desktop, laptop, and console markets will be flooded with these things. Software rendering is pointless when any hardware can play current titles at least @ 720p/30fps, medium mix.

SOFTWARE RENDERING=PLUG AND PLAY HARDWARE=INSTALL BUGGY ASS DRIVERS nextgenjoke

 

Software rendering would be relevant if games used ray-tracing or voxels.

But almost all games today use polygons and for those hardware (GPU) acceleration is better.
