Epic Games isn’t just showing off the latest improvements to the Unreal Engine 3 at GDC 2011. They’re showing us what the next generation of games should look like. Do the images hold up to the hype?
Considering the percentage of games released every year powered by the Unreal Engine 3, Epic might have a point. Upgraded features to UE3 don’t just mean Epic will have prettier games. It means a major chunk of developers will suddenly gain access to these enhanced tools, rendering cigarettes so real I want to light up and robot monstrosities you can almost reach out and touch, which would likely be a bad idea.
These images are from a trailer being shown off at GDC this week, which should be dropping on the general public next week with the weight of a killer mech.
