Hi, I recently read that in an interview with John Carmack, he said if he had to start programming his engine again, he'd do it all in Java! That kind of shocked me, thinking he liked C/C++ and being a C/C++ fanatic myself 8), but then knowing a little about Java myself, and how OOP is morebetter in it, I though, maybe he's right! But since it's interprected it would have to be really slow compared to C++. What do you people think of this??

Wasn't that just using java for scripting-related things and not for the entire game?

Anyway, if you have a link for the interview, i'de like to read it :) . thxs.
