    Alice O'Connor posted a new article, Unreal Engine 4 videos show off tech demos.

    As promised, at E3 Epic properly lifted the wraps off its next-generation engine, Unreal Engine 4. While the real-time cinematic teased before is jolly nice and all, the real highlight is a good long look at the tech and tools themselves.
