I'm very new to Qt and I'm planning to write a small game.
Can you compare "QGraphicsView" and "OpenGL" according to their advantages and disadvantages?

What sort of game are you planning on writing ?

QGraphicsView might be a good choise for a 2D game. Personnally I'd not even attempt a 3D game unless you've had some experience in creating 2D ones first.

For 2D Games I recommed a map editor format like this: http://www.mapeditor.org/

(Just as a hint)

@Sven: thank you for the editor.
@chris_helloworld: i'm planning to make a 2D game.
it's game like prince of persia.
the character will walk and run the ways and get points by making some actions.

Then I'd go with QGraphicsView unless you already have a large amount of experience with OpenGL
