NVIDIA GeForce Power Pack tops million downloads

Posted on Tuesday, September 23 2008 @ 17:48 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
NVIDIA proudly announced more than one million users have downloaded the GeForce Power Pack in less than two weeks.
GeForce Power Packs are freely available content that allow consumers to experience first-hand new NVIDIA technologies that are fundamentally changing the way applications are designed, played, and experienced. For total immersion, the gaming environment has to "feel" as real as possible, and characters must be able to move and interact with the objects in the environment that have a compelling, dramatic impact on game play. PhysX technology provides developers the ability to include effects such as trees that bend in the wind and water that ebbs and flows naturally, and additional objects in the environment that dramatically impact the gaming experience.

"We were ecstatic to have a sneak peek of our Nurien social networking service to be included in the first GeForce Power Pack. The exposure to our customers has been phenomenal," said Taehoon Kim, co-founder and President at Nurien "Frankly, the advances that CUDA and PhysX technologies bring to developers such as ourselves, is immeasurable in the ways it really allows us to express our creativity and deliver a really unique and immersive experience to our customers."

The immersion aspect that GeForce GPUs deliver is showing gamers just how uniquely different their game playing experiences can be.
