Obviously wee all knew it was coming, that's never been a secret. But after the lackluste uptake, and performance of DirectX10, have microsoft pulled out the plugs on their gaming API this time??

I don't know how many of you ever played a game with real DX10 support, Bioshock perhaps, and compared it to the DX9 version, but after upgrading to Win7 from XP i got a direct look at the difference. And it has nothing on these changes. I don't know how far you watched in the video, or if you even did at all, but those changes are phenominal from an immersive perspective. Does any one here care enough to buy a DX11 card, or plan to buy a DX11 card? If games take advantage of DX11 the way that Unigine has done in that video, i think its a fair bet to say they'll be worth the money
