Microsoft unveils Xbox 360 HD DVD Emulator, hopes to speed up development

We can't say we saw this one coming down the pike, but Microsoft has unveiled a new piece of software designed to "streamline development / testing for HD DVD content" as well as "accelerate the advancement" of next-generation interactivity (HDi, in particular). Simply put, the Xbox 360 HD DVD Emulator allows studios the flexibility to "model the behavior of HD DVD disc content, including encoded video and HDi interactivity, in a virtual environment." When put to use, companies can purportedly cut down on coasters and wasted time, but in order to do so, they'll need an Xbox 360 + HD DVD peripheral, a connection to Xbox Live and $2,999. Thirsty for more? There's plenty where that came from.

iPhone gets video recording capabilities

Thanks to another set of ambitious iPhone hackers, we've officially got video on Apple's wonder-device (that somehow omitted video to begin with). It's not much right now, but if you want, you can see your phone recording five succulent seconds of real-deal video at around 15 FPS. The developers say this is just a proof of concept, and they've been able to get up to 45 FPS on the device -- so hopefully we can expect a more robust version soon (like, say, one that lets you save the recording). Check the video after the break to see the gorgeous work in action.

3-Way NVIDIA SLI Takes Extreme Gaming to a Whole New Level

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec. 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Extreme gaming
just got a whole lot better. NVIDIA(R) Corporation has extended its SLI(TM)
technology, which enables the use of multiple graphics processing units
(GPUs) on a single computer, allowing up to three GeForce(R) graphics cards
to be used in a single machine. Now hot, new, graphics-intensive titles,
such as Call of Duty 4, Company of Heroes Opposing Fronts, Enemy Territory:
Quake Wars, and Unreal Tournament 3, can be played at the highest
resolution possible, with all the graphics settings cranked to the max, and
antialiasing applied for the first time.

NVIDIA's new 3-way SLI delivers up to a 2.8x performance increase over
a single GPU system, giving high-end gamers 60 frames per second at
resolutions as high as 2560x1600 and with 8x antialiasing. 3-way SLI
technology means you no longer have to dial back the image quality settings
on the newest PC games. For example, gamers with 3-way SLI can play Crysis
at high resolutions such as 1920x1600 with all the advanced DirectX 10
effects such as motion blur, ambient occlusion, and soft shadows turned on.

"The new crop of PC games offers stunning visuals. And for truly
immersive game play with all the eye candy you need to play on a PC with a
lot of graphics horse power," said Ujesh Desai, general manager of GeForce
desktop GPUs at NVIDIA. "3-way SLI produces stunning visuals, pristine
image quality, and a truly awesome gaming experience."

"Alienware delivers the most advanced technology with the highest
performing metrics on our award-winning systems," says Marc Diana, product
marketing manager for Alienware. "We are very excited to offer 3-way NVIDIA
SLI as a way for our customers to fully experience the rich, life-like
environments of today's next-generation games at their top settings."

The heart of a 3-way SLI system is an NVIDIA nForce(R) 680 SLI MCP
motherboard and three GeForce 8800 GTX or GeForce 8800 Ultra graphics
cards. With 3-way SLI, gamers can harness the power of 384 stream
processors, a 110+ gigatexel per second texture fill rate, and over two
gigabytes of graphics memory for no-compromise gaming performance.

3-way SLI gives gamers the flexibility to scale their graphics
processing power with one, two, or three GeForce GPUs, depending on their
desired price and system configuration. 3-way SLI systems are available
from leading gaming PC system builders and the components needed to build
your own 3-way SLI system are available from leading retailers. For a list
