Ahh .. so 500 fps glxinfo   ~=  15 fps for Enemy Territory with crap card?

Maybe. Don't think so.

Yeah. PS2 is not bad. I play things like Final Fantasy 10 and Baldurs Gate,
if I play at all. There are a lot of really shit games out there too. And
different people like different games.

But .. Baldurs Gate on PS2 is a different game compared to the windows
version. I still maintain that at the moment PC games are the best you
can get.

Ne-way. A friend of mine is involved with this, check it out:
