Mark Rein Knocks Intel, Episodes

[Jul 12, 2006, 9:42 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Epic's Mark Rein Intel is killing PC Gaming on Joystiq reflects the opinion the Epic VP expressed to the Develop Conference in Brighton that moves by Intel, in particular the promotion of integrated graphics on the motherboard, are hurting PC gaming. Epic VP: Intel is killing PC gaming! Ars Not really is an article offering an alternate opinion, which is probably not the last editorial that will be written on this topic. During his keynote address Rein also had an episode about episodic gaming, calling it "a broken business." According to the report, Rein's remarks met with some heckling from the audience, accusing him of being a "dinosaur" and "self-serving."

I know we had a similar debate recently, but speaking selfishly I'm quite happy with the fact that modern games are built to fit more or less on the 'technology curve'. While I'd love my computer to last an extra year, I value advances in technology and speedy release (as opposed to devs having to implement DirectX 7,8,9,10 versions to include a wider audience) much more. Because the games I am looking forward to simply wouldn't exist if they had to aim at lower systems (I'm thinking particularly of Crysis here).
