Good question. From what I understand, Farcry is only using PS2.0 for
lights/lighting effects. This comes from an article recently posted at
FiringSquad: [url]http://www.firingsquad.com/hardware/far_cry_nvidia/.[/url] It's an
interesting read if you haven't checked it out yet. I believe it also
mentions the PS3.0 vs PS1.1 comparision.
