    They must be showing off a bunch of the technology SK claims to have written in spite of UE3.0. Is there an SK presentation ?

    hm... [strike]I believe there was also mention of the camera system in a recent article on the Epic- SK battle, something about filing a patent? [/strike] They might show that.

    edit: http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=17121

    And of course, as a part of the patent process, full disclosure of the technology is expected (not necessarily the code per se, but the workings). But if they're only just preparing the patent application, it would be in their interest not to disclose anything public yet.

    Wow too human could be like amazing. They're still using UE3 too. It can be the biggest game of 2008. its like an rpg with free roaming. It can be done.

    Free roaming? I thought it was basically a Diablo-style game?

    If most games used Eternal Darkness' camera system. The world would be a better place. If you've never played it, just Google 'Eternal Darkness camera' and read on.

    Developers of 3D games should study the camerawork in "Eternal Darkness." It's quite simply a stunning technical achievement.
