I wonder if you guys have any thoughts on the development of Silicon Knights' law suite against Epic Games? I guess a bunch of evidence suggests that Epic did in fact mislead Silicon Knights and undermined the development of Too Human. They also admitted that they hand tailored Unreal to run Gears of War, so essentially that whole first wave of Unreal games weren't as good looking as Gears because they couldn't be.
Assuming Epic optimized the engine to run on the 360, that also suggests they undermined multi platform development, which could be part of the reason so many initial PS3 ports were pretty crappy. It's just kind of interesting that this engine that at least a couple years ago was almost monopolizing next gen game development could be that unethical.
