yes, they are specialized IBM PPC G5 cores, so they are indeed 64 bit.

you think his signature gave it away biggrin.gif

CODE
Programmer working in LA on Xenon (it will forever remain Xenon in our hearts and our code)

I hold a degree in mathematical computation, 10 years programming experience; 7 of those in computer games, 5 of those in computer games engines for ps1,dc, ps2, gamecube, some pc & xenon.

I work on a VERY big game most of you will have played, those who haven't, WILL have heard of it.

what do I get paid? hahahaha - you REALLY want me to tell you? lets just say I've got enough Zero's to make me move 6,000 miles and a pretty damned nice benefits package to boot.

I work for Neversoft on the Tony Hawks franchise and "GUN" which no one has seen outside of PR circles yet.

Who can balme them for paying for your skills.
You once said that you add to 'dumb down' your dissertation for your degree due to it been too complex for people to understand with out a more than degree status in that field of work. Impressive and obviously your employers thought that your education was impressive too.
Glad you're around to put us dumb asses straight. beerchug.gif

Then could you make the damn game different and not just the same shit we have had for the past 6 games in the series. Tony Hawk 1 was the only one I gave a shit for. Bigger levels, better gfx, and a story blink.gif don't cover the fact that nothing else has changed. No offence m_hael but how about making a new engine? Then again if people still buy the games then why change it  beerchug.gif
