Do you mean the engine that will come out in 2006 and require 2Ghz of min CPU?
So, yes, FAR more impressive engine.

alright so i didn't read the part that said " 2006 timeframe", nor did i read the part about what kind of machine it would require, but i did look at the pretty pictures!, and i did make a new topic so praise me!

DEFINATELY abraham lincoln

Yea, of course the U3 engine, but since its not being release even in the same year, you can't compair them.

yea, we kinda covered that already.

There is a certain tight quality about the gameplay of ID titles that Epic can't seem to match. It's hard to explain.

They only started creating U3 engine last year. While D3 was under work for what? 4 years?

I can tell you, from what I saw at the E3, U3 was FAR more impressive then D3.

It could have something to do with Unreal over focusing on grapich high poly models and pushing it in that development while not really focusing much anything on gameplay and content prime examples being Unreal2 UT2k3 UT2k4...

unfortunatley ID is heading in the same direction just have to look at Quake3 and now Doom3 except for graphics you wont get out much content and replayability out of those games...

They are more developping an engine than a game.
Many many company will buy license for the D3 engine, and will make amazing game out of it.
Like Q3. So many games based on this engine.
