Can't be stuck on it now that NV dropped it (I wrote about this in the thread already... few sites used it for GTX580 reviews.) NV is apparently pushing HAWX2 in its place, and HAWX2 is at least a NEW game, even if it's a crappy one by metacritic standards. So I say: keep HAWX2 in the benchmarks runs but not if it's only like, 5 games, that's too much skew. But keeping it in might encourage AMD to improve its geometry and especially tessellation. They seriously need to get their act together on that front, as their 85% DX11 marketshare won't save them forever, only delay the inevitable, esp if next-gen consoles come out soon with DX11 support.
Are you still stuck on FC 2?
It is not a terribly popular game any longer and if a site only reviews 6-10 games, it is not likely to make that list because of all the new games .. not for any other reason. Back in the day, it made HardOCP's list and the other sites that have dropped it due to it getting older; especially if your site only reviews new games.
i think you should replace FC 2 with H.A.W.X. 2 on your imaginary "list" - for now - since AMD really doesn't want us to review it until they get a new driver out for it .. but then i will do a short article on the game when that happens and show the improvement; and if they get it out this week, i will add the new results to my GTX 580 review. Fair is fair
Anyway, i got to get back to work .. i still haven't finished proofing my article.
