In Reply to: THE LACK OF OPTIMIZATION DOES NOT JUSTIFY BUYING A 1GHZ COMPUTER FOR SOME GAMES posted by Demente on 5, 2001 at 12:43 PM:
This is the kind of post that makes hard working, talented programmers stop putting forth effort into time consuming, non profit projects like mame. Constructive criticism is always welcome, clueless ramblings by whining idiots are not.
:If the programmers aren't talented enough to emulate them at real fps without the need for more cpu power, they should leave the job for something more skillful. This kind of filosofy is usual with PC native games: if you want more fps, update your hardware, don't expect any optimization if you want modern and wonderfull 3D graphics. This nasty behaviour of PC programmers is in fact what helps selling faster and faster processors and graphic cards that cost the Earth.
