I showed MGS2 for PC fanboys.

yes, that\'s my point, the cars didn\'t look bad, but when you for instance in a replay see a long strip of road, and the cars are coming at you, you can clearly see a sudden change in image,
I think they already tried to hide it by leaving the replay camera\'s always at a far distance, but it was still very noticeable, which sucked, cause for the rest, the game wasn\'t all that bad

I don\'t really see the difference between tri and bi - linear filtering  in q3, whats the difference?

Unfortunately, tri-linear filtering is either poorly  supported or even not supported within many of the Opengl drivers for PC graphics cards, drivers required for iD\'s game engines. Only a few support this feature fully (nVidia?), hence many will see no difference in Quake3.

When implemented properly, it eliminates the problem you described regarding CS, where you can see an obvious line between texture detail levels on the ground/walls.

Well, I haven\'t really investigated much as I\'m not in need of a new graphics card right now, but Anandtech said you could get GF3 at $399 now. Which means cards like GT2 Ultra should be a lot cheaper too... yum.

What games out in the PC market are using the
geforce 3?
I havent seen any yet. When the games comes out that will only work with a geforce 3 card, then we will see.
I dont think that the GF3 will be as a good seller as the GF2. The price is way to high.

Well, the price on a GT2 Ultra is way to high already, as it is with all high end hardware. Once GF3 starts selling the \'lower\' cards will get more reasonable in price.
