The Unreal Technology Website (thanks Tiscali Games) now offers details about Unreal Engine 3, the upcoming update to Epic's gaming engine that abandons their previous convention of non-iterative updates (formerly all versions of the engine were simply the "Unreal Engine"). They offer details and screenshots of the new tech, which is described like so: "Every aspect of the Unreal Engine has been designed with ease of content creation and programming in mind, with the goal of putting as much power as possible in the hands of artists to develop assets in a visual environment with minimal programmer assistance; and to give programmers a highly modular and extensible framework for building, testing, and shipping games in a wide range of genres."
