I never thought id see the day...

Anything can raytrace if you give it enough time

Man, can't wait for the Magnavox Odyssey to get ray tracing

I remember reading about this stuff for Atari ST back in the day. Good old POV-Ray even. And the first few seasons of Babylon 5 had their CG rendered on Amigas.

oh boy! pong with reflections at 2 fps

oh boy! pong with reflections at 2 fpm

Fixed that for you... 2fpm = Frames per Millenium

Fixed that for you... 2fpm = Frames per Millenium

Lemme calculate.
Pong is about 15 minutes long, solo.
So, if the game was originally 60fps...
500 (half a millennium = 1 frame) × 60 × 60 (1 minute) × 15...
It would take you probably 27,000,000 years to beat ray-traced Pong.

And it's 38 minutes VS.
So it would take you 68,400,000 years to beat VS.

By the time you beat VS., Antarctica will fully melt...

It runs at the same speed. You just don't get to see any of it

...oh yeah you are correct.

Whoa. I wanna see this on N3DS

probably wouldnt make much difference. its more of the 3ds modeling a raytraced image. you cant really move around its just on screen
