Ok, i like to ask why here and there.

I do believe you guys know about .Net!

.Net simplifies a lot of troubles in c++ and handle the memory more efficiently with Garbage Collection...

I don't want to go into too detail..

I just want to know (as if i had no idea of programming), why Half Life 2 is made in c++?

Shouldn't they move into a better technology like c# or even managed c++.net!

Everywhere i see and claims that c++ will last longer and will never die.

If Half Life 2 is coded in c#, i think they can produce faster.

Duration of Half Life 2 in c++ = 10 years (example)

Duration of Half Life 2 in c# = 5 years or less

Well, again why not newer technology? Not .Net maybe Delphi...

Thanks.
