why bother if it doesn't run on mac or linux.
Honestly, there is little you can do in XNA that you can't do with 3dgs.
there is little you can do more with 3dgs than you can with notepad either. it's not about i-could-implemet-it-features, it's about whats-already-in-there-features and how-fast-can-i-realize-what-i-dream-of. but this duscussion is pointless in this forum, i know.
with "real" game programming, i assume he means c++ and assembler, because that's what real guys like dracula do, program games in cpp and assembler
