- well there is an AAA game using it now,
- many existing AAA games have a GC already,
- the GC doesn't prevent anything from being done when it comes 
to real-time,
- you lose development time by not having GC,
- preciously few people get to make AAA games anyway, and they 
will workaround anything in their path

Even if you use the GC you can make a library that C and C++ can 
use.
