Where have u been Anuban? Also, I kinda agree. They sound to much like cry babies in this one. An engine is only good as what a developer can do with it. Look at prey, some say its looks identical to doom. But, I disagree! They did a great job with DOOMS engine.

If it was such a problem lol build ur own engine

It is pretty simple … they are claiming that Epic did not give them the FINAL version of the UE3 SDK on time (in fact they still don’t have some of what Epic was slated to have delivered by now) … the one Epic used themselves on Gears. And if that is indeed the case (and when I look at games like Hour of Victory, R6V, and Monster Madness … the only other released games using the UE3 I definitely see a major difference in the quality, and no roboblitz doesn’t count) then Epic is definitely guilty of not providing what it was obligated to do contractually.

I think the best thing to do is wait and see … let’s not jump down SK just yet. At least not until Stranglehold and Bioshock come out and we can compare those UE3 games to Gears on the visual front. That will be very telling … especially Bioshock which is not a Midway or MS published game.

Actually from what I’ve seen of “Too Human” the animation is the worst I’ve seen in a Xbox 360 game to date. Animation has nothing to do with what engine is used and everything to do with the abilities of the animators on the team.
If the animation is anything to go by then the rest of the team won’t be able to create a game which looks as good as GoW.
