I thoroughly enjoyed Gears of War. It's my favourite 360 title. But in no way can you say Epic is a better Dev team. Epic have the unreal series and gears. Bungie has Halo and Marathon. Both are incredible FPS designers.

"Good" is a relative term. They might be good, but Epic is obviously better.

It's just art style really. The post-apocalyptic art style Gears has helps it look really good. Halo 3 looks too clean, in a way.

They're good but they're definitely not the best.... after all, they were the devs behind Halo 2's sucky single player. I would say Epic has a better team of devs anyway. Valve & Crytek are better devs than Bungie as well.

Halo:CE is the greatest game ever imo but it was a total fluke. Many of the original team left and with Halo2 they completely dropped the ball on the single player and messed up all the unique subleties of gameplay that made the first so great. Bungie is just riding their success and haven't shown they can do anything but replicate a hollow shell of the greatness that was Halo:CE.

Why does everyone say the team left? one guy went, who was obviously awful because he made Stubbs the zombie, not another killer app.

Well...Bungie does make their own engine.  I guess if they employed an engine as superior as UE3, it'd look even better too.  but this is their engine and it does what they want it to do.  no more, no less.  for good or for bad.

You do realize that the Bungie team is a young team that had not been in existance very long, which is what makes me laugh when people try to argue that they are experienced.  Sure they made a couple good games, but it does not mean that they are amazing developers that know how to tax hardware.

 Theyle be good, all I said was Onslaught/Assualt fusion, assuming the amps are a simlar size will be alot less chaotic (which is what UT is about!) and thats a very popular game mode.

Deathmatch ect would be fine ofcourse

I think Epic's good at making game engines. Very good. So is id. They both have a history of making good scalabe stuff that gets used all over the place by all kinds of games. Valve and Crytek both have honorable mentions for having made awesome engines, if only once.

Well, it won't be surprising that UT3 will have Gears graphics and with many units and things going on at once because the systems can actually handle it and that the UT3 engine is really powerful. gnutux

Valve and Crytek have both made their own game engines twice, although the engine for Half-Life was not built from ground up, it was a highly modified version of the Quake engine.

Valve: Half-Life Engine (based off of the Quake Engine), Source Engine.
Crytek: CryENGINE, CryENGINE 2.

I agree though, Epic is very good at making their engines as well.

Epic: Unreal Engine 1-3, and working on 4.

If they aren't good developers then NO ONE is.

 

They just screwed this one up . Capcom screwed up DMC2 ...these guys screwed up Halo 3 which also happens to be one of the biggest games of all time.

Well, it won't be surprising that UT3 will have Gears graphics and with many units and things going on at once because the systems can actually handle it and that the UT3 engine is really powerful. gnutuxgnutux

If the systems could handle that, Gears would have had dozens of characters on screen at once.  Also UT3 is designed much more for flexibility and rapid prototyping rather than power and fancy features.  I mean it can't even do FSAA.

I think Epic's good at making game engines. Very good. So is id. They both have a history of making good scalabe stuff that gets used all over the place by all kinds of games. Valve and Crytek both have honorable mentions for having made awesome engines, if only once.

Valve and Crytek have both made their own game engines twice, although the engine for Half-Life was not built from ground up, it was a highly modified version of the Quake engine.

Valve: Half-Life Engine (based off of the Quake Engine), Source Engine.
Crytek: CryENGINE, CryENGINE 2.

I agree though, Epic is very good at making their engines as well.

Epic: Unreal Engine 1-3, and working on 4.

I am preparing to be wowed by it. Seriously my expectations are so high they would just blow Cryengine 2 outta the water and I wonder if current consoles could handle it.

GeOW streamed textures from the DVD9, apparently Bungie didn't do that with Halo 3, also, Halo 3 isn't running Unreal Engine 3

[QUOTE="OldParr"]16 people,vehicles,ships and stuff at the same time...whats the point of bungie saying that halo3 wont reach gears of war visuals because of all the stuff that is happening at the same time.Meu2k7

Omg, are you telling me Unreal will only be 16 players? ... ok I can see that being ok for Capture the Flag / Deathmatch / Last Man Standing ect.... but onslaught and Assualt :( :( :(.

Yeah.. though Valve was just building off of the Quake engine, which took a lot of the groundwork out. Technically, a lot of people have 'made' engines because they just modified UnrealEngine 2.0. When you've got that strong of a framework to build on, it saves a lot of time and trouble. The reason I say Crytek only made it once is that we haven't seen how CryEngine2 actually runs when it hits the market. We don't know how it will actually run, and those people saying it'll max with a 7800GTX are the same ones that were saying DX10 is faster than DX9 - i.e. they're just listening to the marketing hype and not applying actual critical thinking to what's going on. But yeah, CryEngine2 will probably kick butt. What makes id's and Epic's engines so great is that they tend to run well on a variety of hardware while also being very good-looking for their time. And they've both established a history of being versatile, and generally great netcode too. :) Source did great at being scalable and looking great though, as did the original CryEngine. Just waiting for 2...

DX10 is faster than DX9, FYI.  I can tell you from personal experience.  :wink:
