I was trying to say that Xbox 360 games are almost as much pirated as PC games

Anyway, no serious developper would spend his time craeting something that requires hacking and modding of the original hardware.

Well, I was trying to say that Xbox 360 games are almost as much pirated as PC games in poor countries. Guess game devs. get most of their money from PS3 consoles.

that's a very small fraction of the console customers...

releasing games on consoles is several order of magnitude more lucrative than releasing on PC only

that's because console games are based on feature set of DX9... and since most money from games is made on consoles, it's not a very money-wise decision to make a game that requires DX10/11.

This would be added to my test suite, hopefully increasing the number of benchmarks for DX11. There is a very little number of benchmarks/games that take advantage of DX11 and even less that have integrated benchmark modules.
