Epic should make (finish?) the Linux version of UT3 first.
Yeah right…
They have a potential of millions of people through IPhone & IPad for a new gaming market for them and…
They would spent time on linux where PC Gamers have already Windows anyway.
Business sense anyone ?
Linux is not for games because of OpenGL which is not supported by Unreal Engine because it is used by XBOX which makes a MONEY
Bollocks for iOS4 they would have had to include OpenGL|ES2.0 backend in UE3. Looks good but again same issue I have with id Techdemo for iPhone. Static backgrounds, no player characters no interaction so could be all nicely textured and lightmapped but very low poly (it all looked very low-poly to me). And why they were so awaring about that cheap-o flat floor mirror reflection. That trick is like 15 years old guys.
Yes that much is very interesting indeed. The framerate is not that great though. We are seeing 20-25fps. Still impressive for such a device.
I think that many Android powered devices could provide similar results though. I mean the Apple A4 is still a Cortex A8 and a PowerVR gpu, right?
