Talk:X3D Fritz

Old talk
I've taken this out:


 * X3D Fritz previously defeated IBM's Deep Blue chess playing computer in 1995.

I'm pretty certain it's wrong. Some version of Fritz might have beaten Deep Blue (I can't remember) but it wasn't this particular version, and it certainly wasn't running the X3D gubbins (there wouldn't be much point if it was playing a computer). --Camembert

The IBM Research team used Fritz to check the moves made by Deep Blue. I'm not aware of an official match between the two. RedWolf 00:37, Nov 18, 2003 (UTC)

Do we really need the years added on the section headers? It was already mentioned in the opening paragraph on the page. RedWolf 00:37, Nov 18, 2003 (UTC)


 * Yeah, we probably don't really need them, but then it's not a big problem to have them either. Take them out if you like and see if anybody complains. --Camembert

How much did Fritz get for playing the game?


 * Lots of publicity for its commerical cousin (ker-ching) :) --Camembert


 * or maybe a free RAM upgrade in 2 years time ;-). -fonzy

X3D?
Why no mention what the X3D part stands for? Is this related to the X3D standard? This chesscentral article says it has a VR engine, but doesn't say which. It has a link to x3d.com, but that redirects to some proprietary 3D software vendor.--87.162.49.6 (talk) 20:14, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

Reception/ significance?
Would like to know more about why this match was important Likeanechointheforest (talk) 19:51, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
