After NBC said "nah, you can't have the shows after december", Apple basically said "fuck you, we'll stop right NOW..."

spoiler: no shows of this season running on iTunes.
This is like a car where the engine... oh well... nevermind.
As for the language, we used Python in Unity http://www.otee.dk/ for the initial preproduction of GooBall. It was soooo slow. After that we switched to Mono. CPU usage in the scripting logic went for >40% to app. 5%... If you like the Python syntax, you can always include boo http://boo.codehaus.org/ which mimics Python very closely, but uses type inference to get type safety automatically.
On another note: the article states that Unreal does not use microthreads. That is not correct.
