ATI Denies DX10 For Xbox360

August 24th, 2006

Yesterday we reported on a rumor suggesting that ATI could make the Xbox360 Xenox graphics chip run DirectX 10. It was highly unlikely, and ATI han now cinfirmed that. A spokesperson from ATI says:

“Xbox360 cannot run DX10. The Xbox360 has unique features including memory export that can enable DX10-class functionality such as stream-out. From what we’re hearing, Crysis will support DX9 with some sort of use for DX10 features. It’s likely that those DX10 visuals can be replicated on the Xbox360, but it can’t be properly called DX10.”

Games might end up looking close to their DX10 PC counterparts, at least that’s something.
