Crytek Showcases Multiplatform CryEngine3

When I first saw this news headline, I though multi-platform meant Linux and Mac support, which would have been great (Since I exclusively use Linux).  But consoles?  Hmph.  Consoles can't even come near the processing power or visual fidelity of even mid-range processors and graphics cards for PCs.  They might dumb this whole game down just to make it play smoothly on a stupid console.

AMD Betting on DX11 to Launch it Ahead of Nvidia

OpenGL isn't (and wasn't) playing catchup with Microsoft.  Microsoft is still behind!  DirectX 10 and 11 will only work if you have a Windows Vista or 7 computer.  OpenGL 2, 3, and 3.1 will work with any computer that has supported hardware, no matter the operating system.  It will work on Windows XP or Vista, Linux, or Mac, and it can do anything that DirectX can do just as fast.
