"As it turns out, the Beta kits look able to achieve solid results, but
it's doubtful they will provide the instant visual leap many players
were hoping for. We tested both Full Auto and Condemned, and they
featured roughly the same amount of visual detail as was in the E3
versions, but both games had problems keeping a smooth framerate."

"Developers will not be able to port over existing code and see it magically
look better."

Isn't that a given? You can KEEP your ports!!

Nice troll bait, Cygnus. Claim a well-known Playstation troll's remarks are
correct. Write the subject line so it is negative even though the article
wasn't. Then take a small section out of the article to make it fit your
needs.

Uh-oh, it looks like CygXXXX has relearned some of his old habits. I
guess it'll be in a day or two we'll see the appearance of a imitation
Hillbilly J. Duncequeer. ;-)

Thank God Bligmerk won. Now he won't have to post here anymore.

Three cheers for Bligmerk! It's been nice knowing you, now please go to your
grave knowing you won, and never darken Usenet's doorway with your shadow
again.

"... universally all developers we've talked to agree that, with time, the
new hardware will allow them to produce much better results than we saw on
the Alpha kits."

Aw shit. We were sooooo close.
