At GDC, Epic showed their latest Unreal Engine which could very well be used to make GeOW 3. Really liking the green and hopefully GeOW will have some color as well.LINK

GeoW3 will most likely be gritty and never stray away from black and brown palettes... so don't get your hopes up.

Looks great; it reminds me of CryEngine2. But, Gears of War will look worse due to the brown and grey color palette.

Aside from the graphics I am pretty sure Uncharted borrowed alot ofthings from GeOW.

I'm kind of sick of the current Unreal engine. Even if developers take a different art-direction you can usually tell when a game uses the engine and visually its lost its appeal to me.

That engine looks great though. Hopefully it can be implemented for Gears 3. If not, the game will still look excellent and still be excellent.

setting/color scheme =/= graphics But I have to ask, was this shown with 360 or PC hardware?

Probably tech demo, and not at microsoft event pretty much=PC, I doubt those are X360 shots when they can use the PC.

I did say "...you can usually tell..." because I could not recall all games that use the engine nor could I give an example of a game that broke the mold of the Unreal Engine 3 look, like Mirror's Edge.

It comes to developers and how they use it, but from what I understand about engines there are assets for the developers to use, such as textures, and many devs end up using them. Its fun but you can tell when multiple games have the same look due to the engine.

Engines, hype, technical jargon. Lets just see some games. In terms of Gears "brown" color palette people must have clearly forgotten the last game which displayed a lot of variety in its various levels. I wouldnt say green was s frequent color, but they clearly made an effort to move past the greyscale of the original title..

I just hope Epic brings back that dark, gritty, gloomy atmosphere from the first. Gears 2 had too much "bright" days to show off colour.

Everything looks nice(though I seriously thought that was Uncharted screenshots at first), except for the shadows. I really, really hope that they can make them more like the Cryengine's shadows. In fact, Cryengine 3 should become the new standard for game developers, because it completely blows every other engine away with how easy it is to use and how amazing it looks. Cryengine 2 was way ahead of the Unreal Engine 3, but it didn't have support for consoles. Now that it does, there's nothing holding it back from being number 1.

This definetly is computer farmed, UE3 is notorious for no AA and all I see is supersampled baby bottom edges.

why is there this knee jerk fanboy reaction to suddenly bring up KZ2 at the slightest provocation?! This thread is about gears and its prospects for the next sequel.

Because you mentioned "in my life", which means you are comparing Gears of War 2's coloring to the coloring of every other game you've ever played in your entire life.

It lookes like Uncharted at first. I doubt GeOW 3 will use the same art direction and colours. And they need to run this engine on a PC to compete with UC2, so don't get your hopes up with the X360 doing those kind of graphics with the UE engine.

CryEngine 3 > any UE.

Unless they managed to improve the code for the PS3, I will not buy any game using UE for it. (except on PC)

Update to UE3.5

Which is what makes the screens all the more dubious, to be honest. That's a heck of an upgrade; it looks like a totally new engine, especially the AA.

Dont worry about the graphics technology. Just hope and pray Gears of War 3 even comes out this gen..

And people complaining about browns and greys, greens, yada yada. Seriously.. guys. It was done on purpose and I'm sure these game designers who KNOW how to make games in real life, know what they're doing. Gears looks great the way it is, as does Uncharted 2 with its greens and shiny treasures. Each game has it's color scheme, and every sequel should be highly considered to stick with ingenuity. If you want color, go play Viva Pinata. Seriously...

You people do realize that this demonstration is basically a tech demo, and that Gears of war 3 will not look nearly as good...
