opengl source way too slow 0-10 fps.
Okay, trying to clarify this mess, since the poor guy obviously does not know what software mode means...
Those games you mention do not use OpenGL (which is a specific graphics library, there are others), thus their performance is not affected by the deplorable state of the OpenGL drivers on your computer. The code sample on the other hand, DOES use OpenGL, and does things that rely on the presence of and access to graphics hardware to run properly. Find out what graphics card you have, get the latest drivers, and pray they come with a good OpenGL implementation.

Problem solved! It may be better for me to use another graphics api. What do the games I listed use?

you still need to update your drivers. You need up to date drivers to run ANY of the new games coming out right now.
