Battle over Batman: Arkham Asylum AA (Batman: Arkham Asylum)

7/10/2009

During recent days, you could see a fierce battle between AMD and Nvidia PR teams over Batman: Arkham Asylum and the fact that PhysX and AA works only when you run it on Nvidia GPUs, while on AMD cards the game worked, but without the in-game AA.

Nvidia's team worked with developers and designed the AA engine by themselves. That's a clear fact, and thus the game does indeed look better when paired up with an Nvidia GPU. On the other hand, AMD's PR team is adamant that Nvidia had a lot to do with the fact that the game simply doesn't like AMD GPUs. According to a statement made by AMD's Ian McNaughton, AMD did provide the developer with a solution, but it didn't make its way into the final release of the game.

"One of the updates that was added in the last Games for Windows LIVE client update was the ability for developers to create an in-game marketplace front end. The first game that has seemed to take advantage of this is Batman: Arkham Asylum.

Thursday, we had the announced free DLC for Batman: Arkham Asylum released, so I decided to take the plunge and download the DLC via the in-game marketplace. While you can download it via the standalone client, I figured why leave the game if I can get it in there."
