Yup be we have a better engine now!

The Offset Engine is a complete platform for creating next generation games. Though it aims to be a top tier engine, OE is not just built with large developers in mind. Every aspect of the engine is designed around the goal of reducing development time and cost, while empowering designers and artists with the tools they need to create spectacular visual effects and immersive environments.



On the left is source art comprised of 1.2 million polygons.On the right is the resulting in game model comprised of just a couple thousand polygons

Meaning?
The best looking visual
Soft Shadows
and easier to work with Powerhouse systems like the PS3

all this is for future PC gaming and it's probably about a year away before that engine is used, and no telling how long before it's used in the PS3 or the 360. So for right now, the top tier in gaming graphics engine remains the unreal engine 3.

and plus, I don't know why you think the unreal engine and doom engine will just up and disappear when this comes out, you don't think they'll step there game up and come out with even better stuff graphics wise? Lets be realistic here.

But that doesn't change the fact that it is so very finely detailed all while only using a few thousand polygons. Lighting and colors can be fixed easy without a hit in performance. Its all about detail. This just shows the amazing things that are now possible in video games.

Unbelievable...just unbelievable. And I thought next-gen started with the graphics of Motorstorm! :) Love teh team behind it, too...it's just a small group of ppl (prolly friends). That's how I always imagined a video game designing team would be like...small and manageable, to make the best quality games shared by the passion of only a certain few.

I really hope with this engine, that teh development costs for games will go down, and we can finally play and pay for games without so much the wrry of how much we're spending...ahha something to dream about.

Everything i've read says it's coming to PC and 360.  I've yet to see any confirmation of a PS3 version, but i'm sure it'll probably happen.  One way or another, i'll have the game.

The scoop on this game: The devs said they were making it on the PS3 and PC but they have been caught hiring a 360 dev. Any 360 speculation on this game is coming from the fact that they hired a 360 dev. The models are very nice and have thousands of polygons but they compress it somehow and nail it down to a couple hundred (those two pics have different polygon counts) I've been watching this game unfold and the Devs said they're "going into stealth mode" before they announce something big.This'll have multiplayer and coop.

I reccomend the crowd test video to anyone who's intrigued.


This should be compared to oblivion alone and  not unreal and doom...

The poly reduction tech is called normal mapping and is used in UE3 among other things. Basicly it takes the highres model, looks at how lighting works with it then simply appies that information on top of the low poly version giving the impression the model is higher poly than it seems.
