Their focus has been more on hitting 60 fps, getting the most out of normal textures, and lighting. I think it's a smart philosophy. Not every surface in 3D World has to be bumpmapped, but it is really effective when they are. |
Yeah I must say I do appreciate their modest approach to technology, using it where necessary instead of for its own sake.
Also, what Hynad said.
