Hello, I need some advice. I was going to start building games with c++/c# but when I was going to start learning directx for c++/c# I thought it would be better to use the games I make over any os(operating system).
BUT, will opengl with java have just as good graphics as c++/c# using directx 10? Does java opengl have any lag? Is there any reason to make games with c++/c# with directx instead?
Thanks

Yes, it's better IMO to make it platform independent from a business perspective. Also, you get the added benefit that games take MUCH less time to build in Java vs. C++/C#.

DirectX is really the standard for gaming because of features mostly. I doubt that OpenGL is really slower. But I'm not a true expert here and I'd recommend Java3D which means you don't worry about DirectX or OpenGL.
