For the moment, this is the culmination of the story the other day about the possibility that ASUS would include new "see-through" technologies in its upcoming drivers to allow users of their products to cheat (story) and the outraged reaction (story), which was followed by word from ASUS that they were probably not releasing the see-through drivers (story) at this time. True to that most recent report, this ASUS press release (thanks RIVA Station) announces that ASUS AGP-V7100 and AGP-V7700 cards will benefit from only one of the three technologies described, the "extra light" technology that allows super gamma tweaking, which is probably not nearly as upsetting to most competitive players as the other x-ray vision stuff they were promising. Offering a quote from Raymond Chen, an ASUS vice-president that says: "A discussion forum will be created to hear feedback from the gaming community before we make our final decision on the other two technologies," here's word from the release on the one technology that they have decided to go ahead and release:

Extra Light is very beneficial in almost every 3D game. As seen in the differences between Figure 1 and Figure 2, users can use Extra Light to define an additional spotlight with self-defined direction, size, color, and brightness. It makes the 3D scene more bright, clear, and colorful. Using this feature will extend the GeForce2MX and Geforce2 GTS's capability to display vibrant images with real world lighting. This technology enhances the color definition in 3D games providing additional spotlight to the areas that gamers want to focus on. The end result is complete absorption in an environment that is the closest you can get to the real thing and can only be unleashed with our ASUS AGP-V7100 and AGP-V7700 series of display adapters.
