Is "engineering feet" better or worse than "engineering hands"? :)

I thought that was just the annoying Sony advert from a while back.
I've got a PC capable of running Crysis on very high (with some custom config tweaks too) at 720p, and I just don't play it - the game is boring as hell. It's a really pretty tech demo, that turns even worse when you hit the frozen levels. Graphically fantastic, the gameplay - not so much.

I agree with you...
I played the game, and wasn't impressed. PC Gamer gave it a 98%.... 98 PERCENT!? That, combined with their 88% review of the craptac-ular Hellgate:London lost them a subscriber.
That said, I think the engine has great potential, and would love to see new 360 games use the engine.

Sure the tech demo looks great but what are the chances of seeing a game from it this gen? I recall the 360 demo of the car slamming into the wall and being damaged differently depending upon how it hit the wall. Still havn't really seen that put to use yet. Forza 2s visual damage is weak as well as PGR. I guess Burnout Paradise does a pretty good job. Heres hoping for GRID to pull it off.

Anyone know what the song is?
If not, I might have to spend a long time in Garage band over the following week.

Personally, I'd like to see the UE3 get some competition from either the Cryengine or Id Tech 5 engine.

It's a fucking blog, not a $19.95/yr subscription magazine. I read through this shit so fast to gather information I don't even see the point in spending that much time in regards to grammar.
Professional journalism... its a fucking BLOG SITE! Give'em a break.

D dogg: I understand what your saying, as for me saying what I said because I to am a blogger for another site similar to X3F. That comment was in no way a dig at Dustin or X3F. I guess you missed that "lol". I've gotten comment's just as Neopath said about things I've written as well. As for "Professional Journalism", that's another topic.
You tell me to "give'em a break", but try to call me out for just commenting on another comment. As before, hmmmm.

Finally a chance at the massively multiplayer online teapot-player game I've been waiting for all these years.

If they can get a game to look like that, I'll be happy as long as its fun also. I don't want to play a Barbie horse adventure with real life style graphics.
