    Em, go into the editor and make stuff that doesn't look like that? Make your own textures and turn down the specular? Write your own shaders!?

    I mean, it's just a means of rendering stuff, there's no law governing what textures should look like or what the effects should look like.

    I don't think you understand the concept of "engines"

    Have a look at ET: Quakewars.

    Indeedy, but just remember that some engines just weren't suitable for massive outdoor scenes. Luckily this doesn't apply as much anymore as the last generation of engines proved. Quake Wars is definitly going to show off the true capabilites of the Doom3 engine however..

    Actually, this struck me as rather strange.I was just reading an interview with Tim Gerritson of Human Head, the developers of Prey and he mentioned this interesting fact...
    Eurogamer: What are the main differences between the Xbox 360 version and the PC version?

    Tim Gerritson: Both versions use the same source content though some of the visuals on the 360 use the medium PC quality settings for performance reasons.

    That to me is VERY strange. The XBox360 is only capable of MEDIUM levels of detail on the Doom 3 engine? I just hope thats becuase the engine still isn't fully optimised for the next-gen consoles or else those people who have been talking about PC Gaming dying off can start eating their hats now.

    Doom 3 engine is OpenGL, can the 360 run that natively?
