A topic that has come up more than once recently is the very impressive Duke4 shots that came out early last week. As many people know, Duke4Ever was originally based on the Quake2 engine (Which george addressed here actually). When taking a look at those shots, and then comparing it to what other developers are doing with the Quake2, I've come the the conclusion that 3DRealms made a good choice. I know a large portion of you guys just hate UT and Epic, but I'm one of those guys who actually dont care who makes a product, as long as it's good. I'm not trying to start a general flame war over which engine is better in general, but for this specific application (The Duke4 title) I'm actually convinced the technology from Epic was the right choice for 3DRealms. If you have a comment, try to keep it specific to Duke4, and none of this Quake3 vs UT crap, god knows we've had enough of that.

oh btw, Gamedealer tells me the $33.95 Quake3 deal should work a bit faster today.
