Some new fps game that I think is xbox 360 only so far 0-o. I don't have one but it looks awesome. Dunno if anyone has played it b4 but there's a video out.

http://www.techeblog.com/index.php/tech-gadget/cell-factor-trailer That just has the video playing off the site with some screenies in a small box. I found a downloadable video here. http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1362 I dunno if that's the same one or not but most likely it is. It's supposed to demonstrate some new physics engine. The video is pretty repetitive they just wanna show everything flying in a boom at the same time I guess. It seems like it's just a multiplayer avi with music lol. Same scenes different views...again and again and again.

It's for PC. The game itself is more of a playable tech demo for Ageia's upcoming PhysX card. It shows us just a small taste of what gaming with hardware accelerated physics could be like... if we're willing to shell out $200+ for yet another computer component. We'll see how this plays out. I'm thinking Ageia itself will go under pretty quickly, but only after they make hardware accelerated physics the next big issue between nvidia and ati. Hopefully they'll find a way to just add it on as another feature of newer graphics cards rather than sell it as a separate card like Ageia is planning to do.
