RavenFox said:Maybe he should get on Sonys world wide studios for some help because other programmers are getting awesome results. Carmack is not the God he once was and he has to stop making excuses. [Now Gaf the man can program his ass off but only for things that fit his mole]. Maybe team Crysis can give some multicore pointers? Take them off the ppu to the spu Carmack.
I have to agree... Sony's First-Party titles are pretty much outstanding from what I've seen... Like it or not, Resistance, a launch title, was incredible and nearly matching the "supposed" pinnacle of graphics... Gran Turismo, F1, Heavenly Sword in motion, Motorstorm, I'm sure LAIR is looking all the more spectacular, from what we've seen from WKS; they're all incredible looking in their respective regards... And these are all first-gen games... I can not wait to see stuff from the next Rachet and Clank, ND's Big, etc...
Carmack created games I'll never forget... I still can que-up the opening sound from Doom in my head at any moment... but, from his latest D3, and Quake... well, you can't help but think he's losing touch... He needs to swallow his pride, get back into a classroom, and learn what he needs to on these new processors schemes... You would think after seeing what Epic has been doing would inspire him to get back into the books...
