Sorry to be a downer and a pedant, but there's no point in coming up with a AAA 'graphics engine' if it's not stable and robust across a wide variety of platforms. Forget Shader2.0, forget all these special FX, if it's not stable and doesn't perform robustly across different PC configurations, then just fogeddaboutit!
