Unreal Engine 3 new features revealed, GDC 09 Trailer

Following from last week's CryEngine 3 post, here's a look at the latest features of Unreal Engine 3, as revealed at Game Developers Conference (GDC) 2009. The newly introduced lighting methods in particular look fantastic. More information can be found at the Epic official website (here). I've used the Unreal engine for game development teaching this year at Bournemouth University and it really is a very powerful tool (which can teach the students many things about the creative process of level creation).

Also if you're into UnrealEd don't forget to check Epic's 'Make Something Unreal' competition (here), a fantastic opportunity for the modders community and also a praiseworthy initiative from Epic.
