title: Game engine or graphics library?
body: <p>Should I use a game engine or a graphics library? I was just thinking of making a simple game to start out with, but what about when you get to higher-end stuff and high poly models? Which would be faster?</p>
  
  <p>Also, should I choose Xith3D or JMonkeyEngine?
  Or if I were to go with a graphics library should I go with JOGL, LWJGL, or the new JOgre?</p>
  
  <p>Java is fine for making games, if I wanted to switch to c++ I wouldn't be asking.</p>
