There you go talking out your backside with ad hominems again, you have no idea how much experience I have. You could probably find out in my bio. But you hide your bio and call out people's experience which is not humble but maybe making up for something lacking. Experienced people don't need to do that. I have developed on every platform out there, vendor lock-in is a trick each platform uses, you have to know where to get around it.
>> "I have no experience with mobile, but don't you have different languages for iPhone and Android? And good luck finding Objective-C and Java elsewhere"
"If you knew anything about" multi-platform development you'd know most game engines are C/C++ with Objective-C/Java wrappers like I mentioned 20 thread posts up in this sorry thread. Game engines like early oolong, coco2d-x and custom engines I have worked on are typically C/C++ with minuscule amounts of platform specific code to get them to run on iOS/Android (i.e. OpenGl EAGLView wrapper on iOS and here and there frameworks like GameCenter/IAP, pthreads for instance work on both). Also engines like Unity do this as well and have intermediary languages like C#/Boo in Mono then export to that same multiplatform setup, even their PS3, Wii and XBox output does the same. Wasting time on tech specifics was for the last gen if you want to compete and keep costs down. Custom engines don't pander to the platform they use as little of the platform as needed to run their native C/C++ engines.
You are only causing yourself damage to being a person noone will want to discuss anything with if you consistently attack the message and do nothing but ad hominem attacks. It's no wonder you hide your bio and personal info if that is how you work. Who'd want to work with someone so caught up in themselves that needs to put down others to win conversations? You admit defeat when you do that. I hope you work with someone like yourself and learn a bit.
I'll expect one more ad hominem attack after this but you won't get a response as that is very troll-like. I could put you down but I am not like that, I like to discuss topics not attack people when I know nothing about them. People like that are a waste of time to give any time to. A response that is anything like the above responses you have had proves to me you are a troll and can't discuss topics without attacks, not something you will do for long if you want to succeed.
We have already agreed to disagree, we are on different parallels, no need to continue this it is time to move on. Do yourself a favor, next discussion you get into, try to stay on topic. This off topic tangent we went on made the Google game console thread less appealing to others who cared to stay on topic.
