Radeon VII.Or this

released back in 1973. I suppose these words were already a meme back then (dunno when they started to use the actual full "Big in Japan" but i suppose it was a saying that was common among the rock bands that would go there and have a huge success).
as for actual FPS in Star Citizen: this guy is streaming right now with a fps counter. He's running a 6900XT and i suppose a high end CPU.. Barely hovers around 40fps.

Oh you typed so much unnecessary stuff there lol (great post though).Oh, now you've set me off. [snip]
You mean that one:Radeon VII.
I was wondering when we'd get around to this again, seems to happen roughly every eight weeks or so.
While I've posted and talked about some pretty dark things (the Hollywood sex parties
No, Radeon VII, its labelled in his OSD, this one. https://www.amd.com/en/products/graphics/amd-radeon-viiYou mean that one:
?
It's recent, and expensive...
So it's not "their own", then?This is not uncomen in game development, you can get licences to do that.
Its also not rebranded, its still Lumberyad in the credits
Culcha shokOh, now you've set me off.
When people hear the words "big in Japan" their thoughts usually go to this...
Now, nobody can really argue the influence of Alphaville on the music of the 80s, with classics like this...
But there was actually a band called Big in Japan who had a song called... Big in Japan.
Unfortunately i can't find a video with the band in it with this song.... and yes, its absoloutely terrible. But its early days of the band members, let's say Tier 0.
However, at the 1 minute mark you can see a picture of the band members, and you might recognize some of them.
They were described by NME as the biggest band that never was, and for good reason.
Specifically third from left, Holly Johnson, a founding member of Frankie goes to Hollywood, a huge band in the late 80s
And had a solo career as well
Fifth from left is Ian Broudie, who would later find fame as the frontman of the Lightning Seeds
UK football fans of the 90s might remember this one
But to my mind the most influential member of the band was Bill Drummond, who went on to found the KLF with Jimmy Cauty, one of the most influencial pop/dance/sampling bands of the 90s.
Whether you remember them as the Timelords
or as the KLF
Or those guys who managed to convince an aging country and western singer to sing with them
If you lived in the 90s you knew about them.
They even wrote a book called how to write a number one, which at least one band claimed to have read and succeeded in making a number 1 record...
So, where am i going with this?
Well, as i see it you have two options. Either buy an Idris, or join the the Ancients of Mumu player faction in Elite Dangerous. Because we are justified (usually left, but sometimes right) and ancient (although not that ancient).
So it's not "their own", then?
I can almost remember the 80's...didn't listen to much music back then as I invariably ended up somewhere where stuff was exploding or strange, unfriendly people were shooting at meCulcha shok
I've been careful and trying not to compare SC with ED, i don't see them as competitors and most of all i don't want to get into a "which game does it better" peeing contest.
Oh you typed so much unnecessary stuff there lol (great post though).
I was born in '71 so I'm just the right age for that. Personally I'd have gone with Perfect as an exemplar of The Lightning Seeds oeuvre but there are many to choose from:

and as for Frankie, all I'm going to say is that despite not having owned a turntable for 20 years, I still have this on 12" (bought when it came out) and will likely never sell it. It's probably one of the best pieces of production ever from a British band, Trevor Horn is a genius and this specific mix is one of my favourite songs of all time. Anybody who hasn't heard the 9 minute Annihilation mix from the 12" needs to do so immediately.

Fun fact - the voice of Ronald Regan was provided by Chris Barrie aka Arnold Rimmer, who used to do the voice for him on Spitting Image.
I was never a particular fan of the KLF - I can agree that they were good at what they did without particularly liking it. I also thought the million pound stunt didn't work at all as an artistic statement; whilst accepting that it was entirely their choice to do so I thought it was without any real merit and frankly crass. But let's not argue
I was sufficiently familiar with Big in Japan that it's one of the reasons that the phrase always makes me smile and knew Holly Johnson and Broudie were involved, to be honest Ii didn't know Drummond was but I suspect that in part is because my mind kind of slides over his name without ever really internalising why he's being mentioned.

When I wasn't being shot at...this was (and still is) my favourite album of all time. Music died after the 80's...truth

As a rule of thumb...it's always a good idea to totally ignore folk with dodgy face furniture...Those nutters are as credible as flat-earthers praising ecstatic their lord Almighty has decreed heliocentrism.
Yes you did.I didn't say it was.

Nope...neverHas anyone ever told you that you look a bit Billy Connolly?

True, tho its not really Cryengine, or Lumberyard (Same thing) any more, CIG have modified it so much its basically their own engine at this point.
