The language you seek is C++

The Yellow Jester does not play but gently pulls the strings
And smiles as the puppets dance in the court of the Crimson King.

yeah but Microsoft only have to worry about single platform compatibility (^_^) so its easier to make it more quickly. C++ on a Win32/Win64 system, OpenGL covers all platforms.
But a good point is we've gone from OpenGL 1.3.0 to 1.4.5 in under a year - and there were roughly 12 versions inbetween, so its not really that DirectX update more - its more they're far more public about updates and they oftenly fixx those major bugs that Microsoft has a habit of making

lol never used BB3D much, had the demo for like a day and got bored of it - so close to C++ i thought fudge it might as well learn C++ hehee
Always thought it was OpenGL ho hum
