EA Announces Multi-Title Unreal Engine 3 License

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Sunday August 20, 2006 @02:30AM from the hope-that-goes-well dept.

An anonymous reader writes to mention a Gamasutra article about a surprising announcement from EA. They've made the move to license the Unreal 3 Engine for a series of next-generation titles. "The brief announcement states that EA 'employs a variety of engines, tools and technologies to best serve the needs of each game and development team', but raises interesting issues regarding the Criterion-authored Renderware engine, purchased by EA in 2004 alongside the Burnout developer, and its intended global EA rollout."

Yep, x86 is so good that Microsoft went through the extraordinary pain of dumping it and moving to PPC...

Go back to jerking off to Intel's marketing compiler generated SPEC scores clown.
