Default Games coming out in 2007

How many do you think will be DX9 compared to DX10?

I agree that except for a few, we can expect games to be largely DX9, especially the first half of next year. It'll really depend on the stability of Vista and how well it's accepted...

I'm sure the majority wont be DX10 compatible for quite some time. Even when they are, you can still use DX9 cards on them I believe.

^^ Very true. Plus, I was running a DX7 card on DX9 games for quite a while, so it shouldn't be any different with the games/cards for another year or two...
