You people want to risk the future of the whole game for some silly video images? If you do then I don't think you understand the complexity involved, or the stakes.

Amateur developers are producing mobile phone and tablet apps with graphics that are light years beyond many games that were done on a PC or on consoles just 10 years ago.
Sorry, while it requires time, effort, and investment, it's not as difficult as Syd or anyone else claims. See also the thousands of graphics-driven apps and games that proliferate the mobile and personal computing markets. If it's that difficult and the risk is that high, it would be impossible for the graphics-driven gaming industry to be producing billions of dollars in revenue every year.
While the rest of the world has the courage to innovate, cowards talk about how there's too much risk to try. If we left it to the cowards, America would never exist because the Founding Fathers would have considered the risk of being hanged for treason to be too great to justify leading a revolution.
