A big thanks to DigitalWanderer for pointing me in the direction of Elitebastards.com for this editorial called "Kyle Speaks Out" in regards to the recent uproar regarding [H]ardOCP's UT2003 Texture Filtering article! Here's a snip:
It's obvious he has been reading what people have been saying instead of just deleting lots of threads. Not that deleting threads is bad, but most instances such as we've seen could be avoided by talking about things like he has done here. Yes, the overly quiet one about his relationship with nVidia has spoken out with a forum post full of information. It seems to be pretty heart felt and I'm sure this is a result of him feeling pressure all around. But where is all the pressure coming from? First, let me say he's a nice guy. I do get the feeling he's a little sensitive, maybe even touchy (aren't we all?), but a nice guy none the less. In this post he explains quite a bit and is almost 100% real in feeling. You'll have to check it out to see what I'm talking about. Go see it here.

HardOCP is not "in bed" with NVIDIA, HardOCP does not take payments from NVIDIA, and HardOCP does not answer to NVIDIA or do their bidding. The statements and editorials you see posted on HardOCP are there because that is what we believe. Yes, we give our readers OUR opinions and no one else's.
