Meh, not a super innovative engine. Lots of those features aren’t such a big deal.
^Yup. A guy in a project I’m workin’ on made en engine with all these features (minus the super-advanced collision system) by himself.
Racing games are teh suck.
I like whatever engine Battlefield: Bad Company runs on. It doesn’t look fantastic but the levels are large, the buildings AND terrain are destructible and the damage doesn’t fade. I kid you not you can blast a crater with a grenade and then hide in it to pop out and shoot people (not effective, but still awesome that you can do it).
GTFO > 
I miss those games. I can’t believe there haven’t been any decent Mech games in years. Chrome hounds was all right, but just not nearly as awesome as Mechwarrior.
MechWarrior 2 was awesome. Someone is making a MechWarrior total conversion mod from Crysis. I haven’t followed it, but it would be cool if they did a good job.
On Vista? Do tell!
