Almost none of these games use the exclusive Tegra2 Shader Library.
Once the developers will start using the Tegra2 Shaders, those games won't work on any other non Tegra powered phone.
It would be like running a windows app on ubuntu...
All you guys know is how to whine and curse companies and look at benchmarks made on outdated apps like Quadrant... seriously???
you guys have no clue about technology or programming at all.
Chainfire3D gives you access to PowerVR, Tegra, and Qualcomm apps/games using OpenGL ES to decompress the textures.
Just curious too - is the Shader Library built into the GPU? Or are they libraries in the system files that could be dropped and expanded? I'm not too familiar with technology.
With windows app running on ubuntu though, there's always WINE. Even then, it's not fair to compare though because whether you are using a PowerVR, Tegra, or Qualcomm, the dispute is between phones that all use Android OS.
I think a better comparison would be: Windows 7 system with a nVidia GPU vs. AMD ATI GPU.
OR Intel vs. ATI
Chainfire3D is good news for everyone generally as the wrapper gives partial cross-compatibility between all phones (previously, it's not possible to play Qualcomm or PowerVR optimized games on Tegra too).

I really wanna play this on my DHD with stock 2.3.3, surely in theory this must be sufficient to run the game.
I got galaxy on fire 2, pinball THD, bruce lee and backstab HD and many more such games running perfect on my phone
but is there any way to use something like chainfire3d without rooting/altering my phone?
I don't want to go throgh al the hassle of rooting my phone just to play a couple of games ( i quite like the stock version so far and i am scared to ruin my device, I'd rather buy the games if/when they put out non tegra versions but this seems to take ages)

Gypsy's with cell phones?!?! What's going in the world today. I'm sorry but I didn't realize i was in the presence of the next Mushmisho, or whatever your ex commie leader was called. Does your wife have a degree in Chemistry?
You should be banned for this, you prick!
