Yet, MS has always used DX which isnt the most “to the metal” API out there, so your theory isnt all “there”. Try again. Only this time with facts, rather than just beliefs

It shouldn’t surprise anyone that a console has a lower overhead API. Unless you are surprised by the fact that a car can travel faster than a tricycle. 🙂

PC Should win. U guys deserve the benefits of putting a bit of time in changing parts, and spending some cash on ur system. I remember seeing GTA4 in 2K by a modder. My mind was blown. Or was it 4k. Think it was 2k

This always good to hear as it will only get easier and easier to program for in the future.
