    The designers have close to 10 years of development invested in this, which is more than you can say for Source. The only company with more experience I'd say is id.

    Then again, isn't the Source engine based upon Quake 2/3? At any rate, Unreal 3 is quite impressive. When I saw the screenshots, all I could think of was the announcer saying "Holy Shit!"
