Are you a biologist with a specialization in system ecology? And even then, it's impossible to predict the total short-, mid- and longterm effect of a genetic modification/combination. Non-GMO organsims have been tested for safety for 1000 of years in the biggest lab know to man: the planet earth itself. GMO organisms must carry a huge benefit to make me even consider them as a wise choice.

Unbelievable, all these shortsighted and dare I say dumb replies really make the GP's point for him. Of course it is better to operate as a group because it gives you an advantage, and you can bet that the exploiters around got the memo and are operating as a group. Even if you think you're "among the best" you lose a whole lot of bargaining power by going solo just out of some sick kind of narcissism. That you've been brainwashed to this point by propaganda instilled into you since your youth is a truly scary thought.

Well, be using OpenGL they get all this plus easy portability to OSX, Linux, Android, iOS and any consoles providing somethig close to an OpenGL implementation (most of them). But Microsoft offers some tasty cookies (features) to lead people to DirectX and many gamedevs can't be bothered to implement the same features themselves in OpenGL.

If gamdevs formed an alliance, implemented features useful to gamdev on top of OpenGL and released them as a free library everybody (except Microsoft, bye-bye lock-in) would benefit.
