Epic Games unveil Unreal 3 technology

Royal Fool · 04-14-2004, 04:24 AM

During the recent nVidia press event for the launch of their new NV40 GPU, Epic Games had a video presentation of their new Unreal 3 technology. While everything was in the early stages, I must say the engine looks amazing. Nice reflections and lighting.

No, this isn't Doom 3. I swear!

Anyway, here are some mirrors for a shakycam version of the video, if people are interested. It's 5:11 total in length and these servers might go down anytime, so don't blame me if they don't work.
I'm sure there will be a more 'official' version of the video soon.

Whoa!

That's one Unreal video!

The technology is advancing way too fast...

If only that type of detail could be put in an AG. *sigh*

Very impressive. I can't say that I notice much of a difference between the latest engines, but there appear to be some pretty cool features there, and I look forward to seeing Unreal 3

WOW! That is very impressive. I wish graphics looked that nice on some of the other games that I have. 8-)
