PC Games Hardware has a response from NVIDIA to
a recent statement by ATI that developers other than Epic use PhysX for physics "because they’re paid to do it." NVIDIA's Nadeem Mohammed, Director of Product Management, PhysX, who says: "we do not pay developers to select PhysX instead of other physics solution." He also states that PhysX is not proprietary, even though it obviously is, saying: "PhysX is a complete Physics solution which runs on all major platforms like PS3, XBOX360, Wii, PC with Intel or AMD CPU, and on the PC with GeForce cards; it even runs on iPhone. It's available for use by any developer for inclusion in games for any platform - all free of license fees. There's nothing restrictive or proprietary about that."

Embracing open standards is good for the consumer. Then companies have to compete for the consumer's business on the real merits of their products rather than by creating artificial limitations like what Nvidia is doing with PhysX. While you and I may disagree on what is ethical, I believe that Nvidia is definitely being unethical in disabling the PhysX capabilities of its own video cards when its competitors' video cards are used in the same PC. That's blatantly anti-competitive. |
