Why Are Some Games Locked At 30fps?
« Reply #15 on: November 21, 2003, 06:19:00 AM »

All I was saying is that if your monitor only draws 75 times per second, getting 150fps doesn't do you any good as you can't see more than 75 frames per second.

Also, patch for Unreal Championship that makes it go faster?!  I bought this game when it first came out, was so dissapointed by the speed, it's been sitting in the bottom of my entertainment center.  Are you saying I can hook up to XBOX Live or something, and get a speed update for it now?

Yeah let us know about this Unreal Championship update. It sounds interesting. perhaps even to take a close look and compare the XBE's to help us better understand tweakin these puppies.

Bottom line.. your "real" FPS is only as high as your Refresh rate!  Since the xbox is a TV based device Im sure the last thing they were worried about was mega fps.
