Chillblast Fusion Dimension Review: A 3D gamer's dream

The advent of 3D has been hugely hyped, but it’s not yet taken off. That’s evidenced by the paltry number of 3D-enabled machines that have arrived in the PC Pro Labs, with Chillblast’s Fusion Dimension the first desktop we’ve seen to incorporate the technology.

Part of the problem has been the lack of compatible games and mature drivers but it looks to be finally settling down if this system is anything to go by. It uses Nvidia’s 3DVision system, and when we loaded up Call of Duty: Black Ops, Just Cause 2 and the racing title GRiD they looked excellent on the Asus monitor.

What makes me sad is the no name PSU, which I consider to be the most important part of a PC. Corsair or nothing.

Overall it's a good complete system for the price, but still a little bit lofty.. lol.

ATi_Elite4871d ago

1700 pounds which is $2630 converted to Dollars which I can build a better one for cheaper but instead build a more dominant one in this price range.

They didn't mention the PSu which is very important but the picture shows an XFX 750watt Pro which will not support an SLi set up if the owner wanted to upgrade or overclock.

$2780
COOLER MASTER HAF X ATX Full Tower Computer Case $199.99
3 Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard $179.97 ($59.99 each)
ASUS VG236HE Black 23" Height,Swivel & Tilt Adjustable Full HD 3D Widescreen LCD Monitor 349.99
GIGABYTE GA-890FXA-UD5 AM3 AMD 890FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
$179.99
2 MSI N570GTX-M2D12D5 GeForce GTX 570 (Fermi) $699.98 ($349.99 each)
Creative Inspire T3130 2.1 Speakers $49.99
Microsoft CSD-00001 Black USB 2.4 GHz Wireless Ergonomic Comfort Desktop 5000 Keyboard and Mouse $64.99
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop 129.99
NVIDIA 3D Vision Glasses Kit Model 942107010003001 $174.99
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2GHz Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Desktop$229.00
SYBA SD-PEX40035 PCI-Express 2.0 SATA III (6.0Gb/s) Controller Card $34.99
COOLER MASTER V6 CPu heatsink $69.99
G.SKILL Phoenix Pro Series FM-25S2S-80GBP2 2.5" 80GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) $184.99
CORSAIR HX Series CMPSU-1000HX 1000W $229.99

So for $150 more you get...
8GB ram instead of 6gb
2 GTX 570 instead of 1 GTX 580
1.5 TB of HHD instead of 1TB
Raid set up instead of No Raid
High 3d performance instead of low
A PSU that will allow overclocking versus No overclocking

could of built a better set up for way cheaper but someone spending $2500 money isn't an issue so I stayed with high performance.

Let this be a lesson, that's why you build your own PC. Better parts, better performance, better price.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5067d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905067d ago (Edited 5067d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5067d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5067d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495067d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5067d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5067d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
