but no doubt you'd have bought it if it'd been delayed until the 3d module was ready and then cost whatever the total amount is going to be?
Exactly. He would have bought BlitzMax regardless.
Also how can you expect the 3d module to be free? You can buy BM for $80 so I would assume to add maybe another $50 - $80 for when the 3D module becomes available. Lets not forget that Mark has said that the 3D Module will be a next Gen engine with all the Bells & wistles.
