I'd say I am but what's that have to do with anything?

It was a Rainman reference.
Tenuous, but it was off the cuff - you win some...

Thanks for explaining that one...I was lost. (and I've seen that movie 3 times) :(

Lovely, thanks for posting that Clearing.
The more immersive the game is, the better. All hail PC gaming.

Except for those who have only the one graphics card and it happens to be from ATI.

Ah. My thoughts exactly.
Though, I love me some PC gaming regardless.

Dramatic Death Guy's face sure was made of shiny shiny plastic.
Things do look better from year to year, but the ol' plastic surface problem has been with us since "Giants: Citizen Kabuto" got a Geforce3 patch in 2001.
A bit depressing, really.

I'm guessing it's a problem integral to certain types of shader processing. If you want per pixel light to interact with skin, I'm guessing homogeneity of the surface sheen (which probably is what the plastic effect is) is unavoidable.
