hmmm... Best of luck! But it doesn't seem that there is a definitive choice made from reading that worklog entry. I'll just pretend it has never been written, see if I'll get a surprise for 2009.
Personally, I'm waiting for a release of Pure Basic 4.20. I've heard it'll have more support for Ogre 3D and Direct X 9, support for tracker modules from ModPlug, and a lot of other niceties. There's a lot of things in PureBasic that I don't like, but there are many many things I wish Blitz3D would have that PB does have.

I was really tempted to go Cobra last year, but it's not for me. I just don't understand why the language and 3D module are sold separately. It brings the cost up, and the language is not fully matured imho.
Blitz3D is really a nice language, but it lacks a lot of stuff.... If only there could be a cross between Blitz3D and BlitzMax! Anyhow, I won't have any expectations for this, but it sounds interesting.
