3D games NEED 3D acceleration you know….
MS did not delivered. (SL5 have it but it’s just SL5 not builtin solution)
Of course you can claim that 2D is just perfectly fine for 3D games. (First 3D games used only CPU!) But level of detail on screen that is provided by current titles CAN NOT be served to gamer without FULL NATIVE 3D acceleration.
So. Why yes. Current world is ruled by english. But there are those bilions of chinese who are becoming more important, and their language with them ;)
