But I am not surprised. This is going to happen more and more with other engines as well. It's not as difficult to do these things as it was with older tech and older GPUs. DirectX 10 class hardware can really push the level of realism to a whole new level. When it comes to algorithms, most of that stuff has been around for a long time but wasn't possible in real-time up until now. GPUs today can push enormous amounts of geometry and can deliver pristine results if you know how to combine effects properly. The key thing to understand is how to combine those effects. That too isn't all that difficult. Google around Nvidia and ATI sites and everything is there. Most of the leading engines will be able to deliver similar results 6 to 12 months from now. Most others will catch up very quickly after that. Amazing, simply amazing.

Epic and Crytek should be worried. People are really starting to get up to speed with engine development. Epic and Crytek should be worried.
