A64 to be delayed

[HardWareBoss]

Ya 64 bit should start moving next year. It's about time.

Exactly 😛

Yeah for sure. I guess it took time for 32-bit stuff to move over as well.

Weston, another write for THG, described UT2003 running on an A64 equipped system. He described the water effects veing especially amazing, and other little detials showing even stronger.

Apparently, it all depends on the engine, the UT engine is the only game right now that takes advantage of 64bit, the AMD guy suggested we e-mail game developers to haver their engines support it.

I'd love to see a 64-bit game in action 😉
