You know... it would make you seem more knowledgeable if you called them by their name.

Ninja Theory and not "Heavenly Sword Devs".

Heavenly Sword started development on PC with a view to moving onto next generation platforms such as the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The title was in development since 2003 with footage of the original PC version published on TeamXbox.com in 2004. It had, at one time, been up and running on an early Xbox 360 prototype (really?)

Well unless they are willing to spend an exorbitant amount of money creating their own engine, I think licensing UE3 is their only option at this time.

Is renderware ever used anymore. That was criterion's engine wasn't it?

I was not very pleased with Heavenly Sword. Hope their next game is better.

They already have a pretty kick ass PS3 engine.

Writing a 360 rendering engine isn't that hard, or that expensive.

there are other systems then just the game renderer that make huge cost consequences, such as the art pipeline. you could have a great engine, but if your art pipeline is shit or difficult, you might as well look for other options.

After EA bought Criterion, licensing of Renderware was stopped. Independent developers didn't want to give EA anymore money, and Criterion took forever on the next-gen version of Renderware (which was never released outside of EA).

I thought EA owns Renderware since Criterion was bought by them.

So the art pipeline of their Heavenly Sword engine is only suitable for the PS3?

No, that isn't what I am saying. What I am saying is no matter how many features you have in terms of code renderer side, if your artist have to sacrifice their first born and work harder to take advantage of those features, it might be in your best interest to simplify your art pipeline so your artist can work faster, iterate at a quicker rate, and producer better work with less effort.

I'll keep an eye out for their game even though I wasn't that thrilled with Hs.
