Oh. Can u fix your link or get me a working link then please?



You're right but I don't know why the link doesn't work, it's correct.
You could try going on youtube and typing "Nvidia Tengra 2 Game Demo"

Okay I saw the Church demo, seen it before too. I'd say that looks like original Xbox graphics. And unfortunately the GPU in Xbox was about the sgame as a Geforce 3 wasn't it?

Epic: Mobile to match game console power

Developer and 3D engine provider says phones are a 'bridge to the future'

Epic Games VP Mark Rein believes that mobile devices will be comparable with consoles such as PS3 and Xbox 360 “within a few short years”.

Speaking to ME sister site Develop, Rein offered praise for Tegra 2 – Nvidia’s latest system-on-a-chip for mobile devices – suggesting it would fit well with his own company's Unreal Engine 3.

Rein said: “Tegra 2 isn’t ‘lower spec stuff... It is definitely about the future rather than the past. Tegra 2 features a high-speed dual-core architecture mated to a DX9-class GPU with a decent amount of memory and a good bus speed.

“It is amazingly powerful for a mobile platform and performs well within the power range that you’d want for Unreal Engine 3, so it could be a good fit for our engine.”

Rein said Tegra offers a bridge to the future of mobile game devices.

Which game on original xbox looked like that?? I have one, besides some bump maps on Conker's L&R. I've mever seen something similar to this on it.
Besides that's only a presentation demo... on one except for nvidia itsfelf has even started programming on it, you should go and see how xbox demo's looked like before it was out.

Doom 3.

Lighting is better in the Tegra 2 demo, but some parts like textures and explosions are better in Doom 3 Xbox.



The first PC video card that actually made me capable of playing doom 3 at 60fps was a 6600, and as I sad before Doom3 came out after 4 years of programming, tengra's demo has been made in a few weeks.
Doom 3 on xbox runs at 480i the standard console definition while tengra runs at 720p of resolution according to Nvidia.
Doom 3 textures are designed better but if you look at them closely their resolution appers to be lower than the one on church's pillars for example, design is what makes games look good much more than hardware, the church is a pretty simple enviroment they haven't spent much time on its design.



The Tegre demo to me looked coeval with The Conduit, really. Certainly not PS360 level, but decent enough, especially for a simple tech demo with rather poor art.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Also check out OpenCL, any machine capable of Cuda, DirectCompute, ATI Stream(?), but mostly OpenCL as it will mobile applicable will certainly leverage tons of graphical prowess coming in the next few years.

So I agree with MR.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
