The screen shots look stunningly lifelike. I can't wait to play something using this engine.

Looks gorgeous. I hope Unreal Engine 4 can also create hundreds, if not thousands, of characters on screen at once, much like Total War or Assassins Creed 3. But with even more individualism and better AI. Would be amazing.

As would an all new Unreal game.

It looks nice,but then even CryEngine 2 and CryEngine 3 are pretty impressive if you look at some of the work done with them. Both Crysis and Crysis 2 don't really show what both engines look like when pushed. Remember,tech demos are the best case scenario in many cases and initial games based on them won't necessarily look as good,unless they are parts of actual games.

Looking at the screenshots alone, I'm not overly impressed. I much preferred the demo they had a while back, the Samaritan.

So is this the one that adds an extra light bounce?

Given his name, maybe he just has to look in the mirror?
