Depends on what kind of games, I guess. If you're writing a 60fps
real-time raytraced 3D FPS running at 2048x1152 resolution, then
*perhaps* you might not want a GC killing your framerate every so often.

(But even then, there's always GC.disable and @nogc... so it's not as if
you *can't* do it in D. It's more a psychological barrier triggered by
the word "GC" than anything else, IMNSHO.)
