    Got the screensaver early yesterday. The only thing that would have made it better if there was some lightening streaking in the sky and thunder for sound. Other than that it is not a bad saver.

    Personally I thought it was a sweet screensaver. My wife even wanted it on her system.

    hmm is it me or does the video end with the edge of a sun going across the screen and there is an eclipsed moon on the desktop picture.

    All the visual clues point to eclipse being used somewhere.

    I don't think they will be able to name it Eclipse, because Ati owns that trademark. Hmmm.... I wonder if they could name it EclipseFX or maybe FXEclipse. CineEclipse? Hey, that doesn't sound too bad.

    I'm guessing it will either be Eclipse(FX?) or nFiniteFX

    I just really, really, really hope it's not another GeForce.

    I can't help but wonder why the good chips keep flying right into my laser blasts that are heading for the bad chips..

    What messages is Nvidia trying to send with this game, exactly? Do the graphics in the game represent to what they are aiming at with NV30? Does the ratio of the "good" chips to bad chips correspond to NV30 yields? There MUST be some deeper meaning to this!!!!

    The site is updated again with rolling hills and another bubble with a G in it on the left hand site of the rolling gpu chip. It brings up a popup window which loads with some type of game to play with Nvidia chips to save and black chips as the targets to shoot at.
