Epic Shows Off the Newest Unreal Engine 3 Tech Trailer; November UDK Released
by Xav de Matos, Nov 24, 2010 11:30am PSTRemember when the joke was that Unreal Engine 3 was the best, next-gen tech to use if developers wanted to add stylish browns to their titles? Epic wants you to forget all that.
Epic Games, makers of titles like Gears of War 2 and Unreal Tournament 3, have released a new trailer featuring the enhancements made to that other thing they make: the Unreal engine.
Seeing this gets us more than a little excited for the environments in Gears of War 3.
Beyond that, Epic has also released the November 2010 edition of its Unreal Development Kit. The kit--which is available for free from Fileshack for non-commercial use--gives creative types Epic's Unreal Engine 3 framework, allowing them to create their own colorful Unreal-powered world. Color and the Unreal Engine mentioned in the same sentence? It really is the future.

My point: Epic's games are on a great engine, but the games are simply not compelling enough to sustain them. Moreover, the lack of platform and centralized community plays a role too.
Make all the improvements you want...Steam & Source is where the gamers are. Full friends & server integration or bust.
