But there is no palce in the market for 2D games anymore
Indeed, but in one of the biggest gaming markets today, 2D is it's primary source. that being the GBA.
OK we put that down to hardware limitation but some 3D games are starting to show on that plaform but its not what it does best, 80% of it games seem to be 2D and most are great fun.
2D i have always loved and i fear when the new handhelds show there faces over the next 2 years, 2D will die as they will have the raw power to make 3D games and 2D wont be such the high priority.
Gfx almost rule over everything in todays PC market, you have a shelf at your local shop with 10 of the latest games, 9 being FPS with the latest support for your 300UKP gfx card and 1 game if your very lucky being a 2D platformer, we can almost guess which will suck in sales because it doesnt look as cool from the pics on the back of the box because its not 3D in some respect.
