We didn’t get a chance to see Epic show off their latest on the Unreal Engine 3.971 at GDC this year, which definitely cannot produce anything a console can up hold currently.  The good news is that VG247 did and the screens below show off the latest work being done with Unreal 3 technology and still stands to be one of the greatest gaming engines ever made.  The latest technology in the Unreal 3 Engine is explained to be tools for creating the next generation of consoles, PC’s and gaming in general.  The smoking man is just a demonstration and does not link to any specific game title.

 

 

Thanks VG247, check out more on what Epic had to say about their prize engine there.

GDC organisers have confirmed that it’ll play host to the first public presentation of Thief 4 this year.

Eidos Montreal’s Paul Weir will “argue for the benefits of using generative music in games… I will show our custom generative system (GRAMPS), demonstrate its key design features and suggest some best practice techniques.”

He added that he intends to show “how using a single person as the composer, sound designer and audio director on a AAA title can help create a unified sound field.”

They have also reaffirmed that Battlefield 3 will also be getting showtime with two separate discussions planned to take place involving the game.

The event will be held at San Francisco between Feb 28-March 4.
