GC is the no-sweat solution :)

But it's considered too slow (or too unpredictable) for games.

I think it's quite easy to build a GC-like system for a particular subsystem of the engine.

The only nuisance is the lack of reflection in C++, as usual.

Yet most games are written in GC languages (flash, java on android, objc+arc on ios, javascript, C# on unity).

Do you mean the games that push your hardware to the edge, like DOOM and Quake I-III at the time?
