Sulphur you clearly haven't read my post but then given your usual hostile and uppity attitude is that a surprise?
Obviously, when reffering to physx i am talking about the hardware accelerated portion of the library running on the cpu. Everyone refers to the hardware accelerated portion as just "physx", considering many people are not even aware of the cpu only library (they have no need to - it does not draw attention to itself).
You are simply being difficult and pedantic deliberately. I am referring to gpu accelerated physics if you bother to read. I know a lot of games only use the cpu part of the library.
In arkham asylum and other games like mafia 2 and mirror's edge, it is a lot more than just "pretty smoke and glass" but hey i guess if you actually bothered to give it some thought, that wouldn't be as cool as making off the cuff remarks.
In those games it adds detail to the world which breeds atmosphere, and they end up looking pretty empty static worlds in comparison with it turned off.
For the rest of it (like why even just using the cpu library is a bad idea) i have already discussed it before. In fact no i won't repeat myself here. If you can't be bothered to read it and only want to snark, then that's up to you.

I'm being pedantic? You're the one going on about a subset of PhysX that only dual-GPU/bleeding-edge GPU users are concerned about and no one else gives a shit about.
You want to draw arbitrary lines in the sand and call it audience 'segregation' that's up to you, but that's your personal viewpoint and it's at odds with the rest of the world, which mostly doesn't give a fuck.
And if you think that by using a random 'fuck' or 'you're talking out of your ass', I'm being uppity and hostile as usual (I'm going to have to go with Spanish for this: que??), I'm sorry that I pricked your delicate sensibilities, but you've got radical redefinitions of just about everything in life waiting for you once you crawl out of your basement and onto the street.
As far as referring to 'PhysX' obviously meaning the accelerated portion, if you want to retroactively redefine your argument because you want to be insufferable, go right ahead, claim I'm being pedantic, but it doesn't matter: your argument is still tiresome whinging about the state of the nation and corporate strategies that we've already had enough of with lost_soul dumping the same undiluted excrement on every thread he can click on. And the worst part is it's just whinging for the fucking sake of it. Get a blog, that's what they're for.

In all honesty, Sulphur, there have been a few times you've hurt my feelings, too. There are times when you're...well...you're mean. Mostly it's when you drink alot. Mostly. But sometimes it's not.

Oh, I can blame you! I can blame you real good! Cuz you ain't ever bring home any bacon. Just cheap beer and stank poon is all you bring through that door, Sulphur. Yeah! That's all you bring home!
What am I supposed to do with that, huh? Make you a clap on pabst sandwich? Yeah! I can make tons of those!

guys can you stop fighting for 2 seconds!!?!?!?!1/
i need to get the jar of mayo

Oh sure, go ahead and blame for everything. And what do you do, Renzy darling? Huh? Sit on that sofa all goddamn day and watch the Home Shopping Network and run up enough bills to make me tear my hair out. It's enough to drive a man to drink. At least Pabst doesn't cost as much as the pearl necklace you wanted for our anniversary that you threw into the goddamn bay because you thought me and Peggy Sue were sleeping around! And even if we were, you're the reason I drug all that poon into the house after. I wouldn't have to if you'd put out once in a while, but you don't because you're as frigid as a blue-assed corpse in a goddamn morgue! Go on, prove me wrong! Prove it!!!

First off, I ain't watch no Home Shopping Network cuz you ain't give me no money! I gotta stuck to muh stories, and look at rich people killin and screwin each other off cuz you ain't making no damn person rich workin as a janitor cleanin up dar-reah out tha sink at that gottdamn hardware store.
And second, Pabst cost more than that pearl necklace cuz you ain't EVER bought me no purdy things like pearls. I know you better not be countin that cheap ass skittles and cheerios necklace boosheeit you done got me after brother-uncle Bobby Ray died of the shingles back in aught-seven. Cuz I know you ain't spen more than 7 cents on that. I KNOW YOU DIN'T! I SAW THUH CHECK YOU DUN WROTE FER IT! But hey. Yeah. I'll admit it. I threw that sheeit in thuh bay. Know why? CUZ THE GOTTDAMN SEAGULLS KEP TRYIN TO EAT IT OFF MUH NECK!
And you know, YOU KNOW, my ladyparts ain't work no more since I drank all that antifreeze. Ain't my fault.
AND WHO PEGGY SUE?
