    I've played Lost Coast, and the new CS:S map de_nuke, but is anyone besides me really not that impressed with HDR? I mean..I guess it adds a little bit more atmosphere to the game and it's cool when things get brighter and darker and what not but..everyone is hyping it up to be "The next big game technology." Perhaps you have a different opinion than I do.

    I'm not impressed by HDR. A little bit of extra brightness and darkness for that much GPU power is not worth it.
