Fresh off the surreptitiously filmed, embargo-breaking train, it’s the video footage of the engine that we previously showed you only in stills. This is the engine Epic describes as beyond what modern consoles can do.
It’s just one of many signs that a new crop of consoles are coming ’round the bend. [VentureBeat]

Wednesday, March 9, 2011 at 11:47 AMA new UT would be super-frabjous!
UT = Double Awesome
UT2k3 = red flag has been dropped
UT2k4 = Ultra Awesome
UT3 = Humiliation! (well.. respectable but mildly disappointing)
therefore it must follow that
UT4/2k12 = M-M-M-Monster Awesome-awesome-awesome

Wednesday, March 9, 2011 at 5:47 PMIf your current PC has 3 HD 5870s then yes, because that’s what it was running on. However the tech demo doesn’t have any game logic, AI, physics or whatever else going on, so a game with these graphics would require more power beyond that.

Wednesday, March 9, 2011 at 6:09 PMThe question here is, whether or not that’s just a pre-rendered cinematic made in the engine, or actual gameplay graphics.
Still, doesn’t look any better than Cryengine 3.

Wednesday, March 9, 2011 at 11:58 PMI think I liked this less because it was created by Epic. Going the GOW-esque masculine dude-bro route of showing this tech off, rather than the serene, beautiful nature of the CryEngine 3 demo was only a detriment to this show.
