And most of them two years old...
So? Crysis is 4 years old yet it's still being used as a 'graphics showcase' alot.
Now if that isn't a must buy for physx cards then :P But joke aside, even though i do prefer Nvidia cards over ATI (I have used both in the past), physix is eye candy at best, and I'd rather oppose the idea of physix only being a nvidia only feature.
Great, you save me a lot of typing if you invalidate your own argument, do please continue...
Point is no developer in his right mind wastes time on a fad from 2 years ago that only half (if even, with recent selling statistics) his customers could use anyway... In addition, recent graphics engines produce the same amount of bling regardless of card manufacturer...
PhysX was dead from the get-go, and was only slightly less dead when nVidia took over... Locking out the possibility of ATI graphics - nVidia physics combos just killed it once more...
Oh look, another ATI v nVidia flame war be brewin'.
Havent seen one of those in a while.

... Metro 2033 is a tad over a year old, Mafia 2 is not even a year old, and not even Batman AA is quite 2 years old yet... yes clearly outdated. 
I'm not hung up on PhysX or anything, but it sure does make Mafia 2 a lot nicer - so many bits of debris flying everywhere during fire fights makes it notably more fun, especially in 3D. And no, AMD doesn't have a real 3D solution and the driver support isn't even in the same ballpark using iZ3D. For a fee you can walk into the shop, get it, come home and be playing in 3D within minutes - there is no ATiMD option for that.
If you want bang for the buck and a lot of driver hassle and enjoy almost universally poor multi-card support then I can see the appeal of ATi - bang for the buck is the biggest selling feature for the indiscriminate gamer
