UT2003 64-bit Edition Demo

Well, it wasn't long before folks started to rave about how 64-bit processing is gonna bring our gaming to the next level. I am surprised that there's been little before now. Anyway, in what I am sure will be a very welcome move, AMD have been showing off the power of the Athlon 64 with a 64-bit version of Unreal Tournament 2003!

www.vr-zone.com had this little morcel of info:

"AMD has demonstrated the power of their Athlon 64 using the GeForce FX graphics card by running the Unreal Tournament 2003 64-bit Edition on the 64-bit Linux OS. The 64-bit Edition of UT2003 will be available next year when Athlon 64 becomes available (Q2) so gamers look out! Hopefully by then the 64-bit Windows XP will be available too."

Unstoppable! VR-Zone

How will the 64bit UT2k3 perform on 32bit CPU's?

Is Longhorn 64bit? If not, whatever's after it will be.

64 bit code does not run on 32 bit platforms, no more than Windows 95 runs on a 286....
