Why tx3d?

I know it isnt supported anymore but i would still like to purchase it to help me out. Now i was looking a microsofts website and it states that they give you everything to create an xbla game with the 99$ subscription. So what benifits does tx3d offer? I love t3d, so is it kind of like t3d but for xbox?

thanks alexander. ive been looking at a lot of the docs and tons of youtube vids as well. man johns book sounds pretty good too. Ive heard a lot about his last book. I was hoping to get some motivation on some X users to convince me to buy torquex. I really should just put more time into my t3d projects but just being able to publish on xbla sounds interesting. I really wish GG made a ps3 engine, that would be amazing. But i know i could never wrap my head around cell processors anyway.

The thought for buying it now is the price, which won't be 99 forever.
For the motivation: I know that in future it is possible to port my pc game to xbox, so it might find wider audience.
With multiple processors ps3 appears even more complicated.

I bought TorqueX, but I'm far away from making games for it now, because I gonna make a Torque3D game first and then promote a xbox port with it.The thought for buying it now is the price, which won't be 99 forever.

Thats very true. I should atleast buy it now while its still cheap. and like you said. learn more about finishing my pc game and i should be able to port it fairly easy. makes sense. never thought of it that way really. thanks man
