Which is blatantly stupid. PhysX's problem is the lack of AMD support. That's truly not hard to fix.
Again, FleX is a subset of PhysX; it doesn't appear poised to replace it at all. From what I gather, it's just more eye candy but performed live instead of through modeling. It's more of the same fad/niche PhysX has already been relegated to and, yet again, why would any developer use it when they can use the tools they already have available (like Maya) to do the same damn thing and have work identically on AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA? NVIDIA might as well put PhysX out to pasture.
This move by Microsoft likely proves that NVIDIA won't cooperate with anyone on hardware physics. Microsoft's only option was to approach Intel and luckily Intel agreed.
