"Water Effects on X-Box"

Have you noticed that all the games on the x-box have great water effects

To name but a few

Project Gotham great lighting on the road when track wet

Halo Need a say more

Obi Wan the overall feel to the game is shabby but the water effects are great I like this game though

Thankyou NVIDIA for this technology, poorly used on the PC at the moment but Xbox uses all this now ;)

F1 2002 also has some great rain shots ;)

The X-box's graphics card is programmable. This means you aren't stuck with the effects that Microsoft/nVidia stick on the console, and developers are able to make their own custom effects.

As developers experiment more you will begin to see more and more amazing graphical effects from Xbox, whereas the PS2 will already be struggling to keep up with even the most basic antialiasing.

I totally agree with you mate, i was playing halo online earlier and actually stopped to look at the cool water effects, shame i found a bullet in my head and ended up in the water, opps!

Ah, but there is popup on PGR. I had a whole building pop up on me on one of the Tokyo circuits.

I've never been a Notable, though.

whats happened to your notable status

I do and I think both are impressive but the key factor is that on PGR no pop up while doin such a task and in 60hz it means alot to me that does

You reckon? I think it's poor, especially compared to Special Stage Route 5 Wet on GT3.
