These Unreal Engine 3 games are looking really fantastic. Epic must be making quite a bit of dough off of their licensing program. Take a look at some artwork/concepts and some in-game shots. The details are looking fantastic.

Here's an older one that I thought looked pretty cool:

Pretty.

But something about it is screaming "Meh"...
 
oh, another fps with dark corridors, industrial style girders and pipes, and brown boxes. Just what the pc needs ;)

Yeah, the PC needs more dime-a-dozen japanese console RPG's.

Generalization is easy.
 
They need to make a comedy game with a dark, gritty main character stuck in an alternate fantasy world full of colorful rainbows, bright fluffy animals, and overwhelming happiness.

Then he'll kill everything in comedic fashion as the happy little citizens of that furry cutesy animal world react to their new friend.
 
okay, the graphics are ****ing great, but what's with the BITCH ugly muzzle flashes? they're the most important part of any FPS!
 
wow besides the generic looking weapons/characters/setting this Pablum game looks ...mediocre ..oh and the name sucks

And they even got that wrong. :p (Silencers also suppress muzzle flashes)
 
Another generic game using the U3 engine.

Big, whopping MEH from me.
 
Meh...it looks kinda pretty, but yeah..more meh.
 
I thought I was going to be the first one to type that this game looks like Black.
 
That's not a laser dot site, it might be an aim point red dot.

Parabellum is a reasonable name, it's the name of the standard 9x19mm round used in so many sub machine guns, TMP and MP5 included.

Gotta say meh however. The graphics to me don't look that good. Tactical FPS rarely require tactics.
 
its been pushd to second half of 2007 ? noooo!!!

:(

for the graphics side - crysis is by far the best looking game at the moment,
 
Did you guys read this part?

"The good news is that they promised the biggest multiplayer Environment ever created: The whole city!" (New York)

That sounds awesome!
 
Yet I doubt that will be possible somehow...
 
Even so, imagine the bugs when it's first released.

Even worse then BF2? D:
 
It might be fun, hope they have something new to offer instead of the usual FPS run & gun shit. And guys don't be so quick to judge, it's not even in the final stages, a lot can change before it goes gold.

WE'LL JUDGE WHATEVER WE DAMN WELL PLEASE!

Ok, you have a point..I'll keep an eye on this at least ;P
 
Ugh, all of these UE3 games are starting to look too similar...even Turok! Oh well, at least we've got some devs out there not afraid to think outside of the box (Introversion--I'm looking at you!!).
 
You guys always give the games the benefit of the doubt and say "oh, it's not done yet so don't judge" and it ALL WAYS TURNS OUT HOW WE PREDICT! Face the facts, it's a generic FPS.

There is no fact untill it's release.
 
If it looks bad , smells bad and sounds bad , then it's bad. I don't need to see every saqure inch of the game or play the game all the way through.

He's right , all the gamed we predicted that will be bad , turned out so.
I trust my hunch and my abillity to judge games from what we see from them and so far I can't say I was wrong.
 
It'll surely improve since the game is not slated to ship until some time in the second half of 2007.
 
Yep, hopefully they'll make it somewhat good, because right now, as it is, it looks pretty boring.
