Is the PhysX failing?

We are not positive if Artificial Studios will require a PPU when the games are released; the Cell Factor demo currently requires it, but does it really need it, technically? With some creative help from the gaming community, we tested the game with and without acceleration by the PhysX processor. As you will see, the results are very interesting.

I think we all know where this article is going. While some of the effects are eye pleasing, there’s just not that much that the card can offer. It’s interesting to watch the videos taken without the PPU card, to see how the entire game lags when you are looking at a highly rendered object. I think we have a long way to go yet.
