It was worked into the conversation when Que mentioned it and Cobra followed up on it as well.
What the fuck Pug? I haven't been hostile or extreme in the least. I offered my take on the technology, nothing more. At this point it's little more than a nice little party trick because nobody's *done* anything with it. How is that extreme or hostile or anything other than my opinion? And who was even arguing? My initial statement could be summed up as "I wouldn't worry about it" re: W7RE's concerns, and everything that followed was an explanation since my intent was misconstrued as condescending when it wasn't meant to be. I know I can be a bit abrasive because I'm a jackass, but shit.
I never said you were hostile, though you seemed... angry. I apologize if I got it wrong. The tone of language used in your comments made it seem like you were really worked up about it or something. It just felt out of proportion.
But yea, it was as if W7RE was trying to start a discussion on it, and you really went off on it (out of left field as Scottws likes to say) like PhysX had raped someone you knew or something. It almost felt like the people behind the tech were telling us that we wouldn't be able to use it, unless we took it in the form of a pill, suppository style.

But maybe the problem was in my interpretation.
As for it being a gimmick... yes it probably is... but aren't they all gimmicks? The whole video card thing is a gimmick just designed to make the visual experience as realistic and entertaining as possible.
