No, I've never seen that, I've never seen anyone drive their garbage out to the curb and bang the hell out of it with a stick. No, I've never seen that.

Oh. My. God. I have to buy this when it's released.

The bad news is that my laptop struggled to play the high def video, so I'm not quite sure how it's going to handle the game...

That, and I'm mostly sure your laptop doesn't support DX 10.

Great demo.

This is pretty neat too: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... or&pl=true

I'm glad I haven't spend a ton of money on a new machine. Upgrading is going to be fun. :)

Cell Factor is one of the first games to use PhysX, a special graphics card for your PC that only processes the physics, nothing else. Pretty amazing what you can achieve with this.

Check out page for the hi-res version of that movie. Simply amazing :).

I think it's available on the Dell XPS and in Falcon Northwest boxes as well.

I'm torn between the ultraportable I've been holding off on getting and turning my computer into a gaming machine I'll have no time to use.
