Sun Pushes Java For Games Market

mysterious_mark writes "Sun has a new initiative promoting Java for game development, according to a story at CNET News." Interestingly, the company is trying to convince game makers that you can make state-of-the-art titles in Java as easily as simpler browser or phone games: "Java also has been used to build a number of simple online PC games, such as card games, but the language can be used to create sophisticated graphics for A-list games, Melissinos said. 'Some people may have the misconception that Java can't do great, high-performance graphics, and that's absolutely not true.'"

Dear Sun Microsystems STOP

Please let us know STOP
When you finally decide to stop scotch taping code within code STOP
and write Java from the ground up STOP
Finally, please make sure STOP
that the new Java STOP
does not have the built-in security STOP

Until then, please stop with these news releases STOP
which only bump your stock price up one Penny (Canadian) for a day STOP
and release a real language that isn't the STOP
electronic form of molasses STOP

Sincerely,

ME
