Ajd...nadam se da će to pokrenuti novi trend među proizvođačima procova
Mislim, nije loše-kupiš proc dobiješ igru.
Izgleda da i na tom polju počinje malo jača bitka za kupce...

SUNNYVALE, CALIF. -- May 18, 2004 --AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announced availability of Ubisoft’s impressive Far Cry PC game with the purchase of any AMD Athlon™ 64 FX or AMD Athlon 64 processor-based system from participating system builders worldwide through June 2004 or while supplies last.

“Far Cry is among the first of many games that will tap into the incredible power and possibility offered by AMD Athlon 64 processors,” said Henri Richard, executive vice president, worldwide sales and marketing, AMD. “With AMD offering the best 32-bit performance available today and gaming developers already using 64-bit computing environments to build unprecedented realism into their products, 32-bit only technology is no longer a barrier to the imagination of creators. With AMD64 platforms, games can now be created on, served on, and played on the award-winning next-generation technology.”

“We are offering customers a unique experience to explore high drama and realism with Far Cry’s incredible lighting and shadows, adaptive audio, weather effects and revolutionary character physics,” said Jay Cohen, vice president of publishing, Ubisoft. “With the AMD Athlon 64 FX and AMD Athlon 64 processors’ unprecedented performance on Far Cry, the game can be played the way we envisioned and PC buyers can truly realize extreme gaming.”

Zgodan marketinški potez ....

Dok Intel nema dostojan odgovor - zgrabiti što veći dio tržišnog kolača.

I to na ciljanoj masi ljudi - gameri. Oni kojima nikada konfa nije dovoljno jaka i 200 FPS-a u UT 2k4 se smatra - mouse lagom . Iako možda i izgube nešto love na promociji - dobivaju legiju ljudi koji postaju potencijalni korisnici AMD-a.

1:0 za AMD / Intel marketing

Igra se dobije samo ukoliko se kupi gotov sistem s AMD64 procesorom (bar sam tako shvatio)...
