BF 1943: Pacific
| Reads: 10 |
BF 1943: Pacfic will be a downloadable game for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. Please note that the game is a downloadable game and at this time is meant to be a small inexpensive game to purchase. Holding only 3 maps and a max of 24players. BF1943 is meant to be a fun small game/ small price recreation of BF1942 but using DICE's new frostbite engine giving BF1942 a new beautiful look in the form of BF 1943: Pacific. The game also seems to lay the foundation for a game that is meant to have downloadable content that is purchased, such as maps, weapons, etc. but this is all speculation.
The following are some details straight from the announcement .
"...Battlefield 1943 will be available on Xbox LIVE Arcade, PlayStation Network and on PC for download. This gives players access to the famous action packed Battlefield gameplay quicker and easier than it's ever been. Play as the US Marines or the Imperial Japanese Navy on match-made servers for optimal challenge, as you gain ranks and awards. Battlefield 1943 is your own version of one of the most famous campaigns in the history of the world!

The King Is Dead, Long Live the King: EVGA GeForce GTX 295+ Graphics Card Review
| Reads: 11 |
The following are excerpts from an articl posted by x bit labs
Conclusion
"...Summing everything up, we can say that Nvidia has come up not with just a competitive dual-core graphics cards, but with the best-in-class solution which is far superior to its AMD counterpart in performance in modern games as well as in other consumer properties such as power consumption, noisiness and heat dissipation. Nvidia’s programmers did a good job, too. It is the first time in our tests that a multi-GPU card from Nvidia is actually free from any compatibility and performance problems, being superior to the Radeon HD 4870 X2 in this respect, too..."
"...So, after a long series of defeats Nvidia is finally victorious and can claim technological superiority. This should have a positive effect on the company’s image and the popularity of its products..."
PanzerGhost: Previously The Radeon HD 4870 X2 was the superior Video card under the majority of online reviews, beating every Nvidia card below the EVGA 295+. Also the Radeon HD 4870 X2 has Direct X 10.1, future proofing the card.
Please note that the Radeon HD 4870 X2 and the EVGA 295+ are Enthusiast cards, and are expensive.

Allied Intent Xtended v2.0 Released
| Reads: 20 |
The Allied Intent Xtended mod team is very happy to announce today the release of v2.0! Here's what they had to say:
It's the day we've been eagerly awaiting for what seems like an eternity! Welcome to the AIX 2.0 release day! I'm sure you can't miss the big download buttons above so what are you waiting for?! 2.0 comes in 2 download choices, a patch for those of you who still have the AIX 1.0 Installer handy, and a full installer which is double the size.
The full installer comes as 2 files. One is the core mod package and the other is the core maps package. This makes file management and downloading easier for the majority of people rather than downloading one gargantuan file. You can install these two exe's in any order, but both are required if you choose this download route!
The patch version is half the size and requires a freshly installed, unmodified, completely untouched install of AIX 1.0 first! Please read the accompanying notes on the client download page for important information. The server files have been out for 24 hours and at last count there are 50 already online and ready to play!
This release was made possible because of many people behind the scenes and I'd like to thank first and foremost our amazingly dedicated test team who are an enthusiastic and groovy bunch of people who are a joy to hang out with. Their hard work is the reason you have such a solid release to play with! My fellow devs are an awesome bunch of people to work with, so kudos to them on some serious dedication and a seemingly never ending well of crazy talent and determination! We also humbly thank all the mirrors and hosting sites who have graciously donated their server space and bandwidth to get AIX out to you all!
We sincerely hope you enjoy AIX 2.0 as much as we had fun creating it for you. See you on the battlefield!
AIX v1.0 -> v2.0 Patch
AIX v2.0 (Client - Mod)
AIX v2.0 (Client - Maps)
So be sure to download the mod now and post any feedback you may have. Enjoy!
