Hawken and PhysX Sitting in a Tree - N-V-I-D-I-A

First comes rockets. Then comes fire. Then comes the explosions in an explosive ordnance? Well, that needs some work. However, what doesn't need much more work is the inclusion of PhysX support in Hawken. Check out this new trailer to see the difference PhysX makes on the game's visuals.

Damn, that's pretty. If it runs as smoothly as Borderlands 2 does with PhysX, I may have to go check it out. I need to play more Hawken anyway. You can too! It's free.

So basically I don't want Physx so that I can see easier and have an unfair advantage.

Come on, games have worked like that for years. I'd rather have a graphical choice then a super balanced game in the way everyone sees things, but that limits graphical customization.
If I have a crappy pc and I want to disable shadows so that I can have more fps then allow me to. If I'm all competitive and pro and want to have an advantage over my opponents then I set the settings to whatever gives me that advantage. If I enjoy beautiful things, or just have a badass PC and want to enable physics so that I can have cool, extra and satisfying eye-candy then allow me to do so too.
It's about choice, everyone has it so it doesn't make it an unfair advantage.

Oh yeah I'm fine with the choice to do so. I'm just saying this is yet another feature I won't see unless it's in single player. :)
