Thanks to Meisadragon, this needs its own thread.

http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/ar...80-powered-unreal-engine-4-tech-demo-unveiled (Third video here.)

This is your generational leap right here for those judging next gen solely on early games like KZ4. I could easily see this running at 1080p/30FPS on PS4.

Update:
Demo runs on a single GTX 680, same hardware as the earlier elemental demo and Samaritan.

This demo run on single GTX 680!

For a demo with lack of colors, it actually looks pretty.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

Sensationalist thread title but I tend to agree. The background city looks on par with KZ4 showing yet the close combat stuff looks miles better.

I am very, very impressed with this UE4 demo. Much more than after seeing that crappy Elemental.

*Killzone Shadow Fall (alpha build)

 

[CookTrain]

Nice to see Kabal getting some work while Netherrealm is working on Injustice.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Marlow Briggs?

 

[reson8or]

Looks awesome, like a tech demo should.

Show me some gameplay and we'll talk.

Bit old as this thread has existed already for a couple of days, and with a non-baiting title.

That was for the 10 second teaser.

Truth.

That was for the 10 second teaser.

In that case, load baby, load!

 

[BloodMoney]

i love when thread titles are more than news - also reflect personal bias. *sarcasm

 

[Doc Evils]

I'm guessing this mean no more bald space marines for next gen?

 

[maquiladora]

Looks very nice. Not sure about "Killzonewho" though, Killzone was actual gameplay of an actual game. This is still just a tech demo on a PC.

 

[WeAreStarStuff]

Lol at that title. Looks great, but it is a tech demo, so it should.

 

[dEvAnGeL]

talk about a flaming title, this is a tech demo, killzone was live gameplay

 

[Ran rp]

R.I.P. colors.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Finished tech demo vs playable alpha build.

Killzone never stood a chance.

 

[Y2Kev]

Hey, so that your thread didn't become a total shitshow, I fixed your title for you.

 

[Kenshin001]

Nice shades of grey.

 

[Darkflight]

What a terrible safety shutdown button.

 

[Horse Armour]

Hey, so that your thread didn't become a total shitshow, I fixed your title for you.

Yeah, you're right.

 

[RoKKeR]

"Tech demo"

Call me when this is in-game.

 

[shantyman]

There is a big difference between a tech demo and a real game.

 

[Xun]

Reminds me of 1313 in how things are being rendered.

Unsurprising really, but it looks great!

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Fix that shit Gorilla.

 

[raven777]

this/deep down/agni's philosophy are the kind of stuff that gives me "next-gen" feel.

I know we probably will get big downgrade on the actual consoles, but hopefully we can reach similar quality by the end of the next gen.

 

[DieH@rd]

I must confess. They have finally made a good tech demo with art direction and story sequence that didnt suck. Sure it was dark and void of colors, but it was way better than Samaritan.

Hopefully they will announce what kind of PC is running this. Most probably Titan...

Spoiler

or two.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

It is kind of sad that Epic put so much work in to vegetation in UE3 and got it looking real nice that they would then debut UE4 with a cookie cutter space marine demo.

 

[Tenki]

R.I.P. colors.

.

Nice to see Kabal getting some work while Netherrealm is working on Injustice.

LOL

 

[CitizenCope]

Like that lead dude.

 

[Ran rp]

Bring back Samaritan, Epic.

 

[Metalmurphy]

This is what ME could have been like if they hadn't ditched UE.

 

[Kun Aguero]

Impressive demo, I hope this turns out to be an actual game.

 

[statham]

That looked awesome.

 

[Norml]

Now we just need to know the specs running it.Hopefully not on a dual GPU at 3k like BF4.

 

[Terra Firma]

Is it playable? Is it running on a console?

No?

 

[ComputerMKII]

The video looks impressive but it still has that wax-y, CGI look.

 

[Emwitus]

What a cheesy unimpressive cliche fest. Terrible lighting, unimpressive textures etc etc Tech looks good but they should have found a more inspired way of showing it off.

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

Next-gen = dirty lenses.

 

[szaromir]

Looks very nice. Not sure about "Killzonewho" though, Killzone was actual gameplay of an actual game. This is still just a tech demo on a PC.

Both Killzone Shadow Fall and UE4 demos looks similarly interactive.

 

[scitek]

You know what they teach us in tv production class about lens flares and spots on the camera lens? They're bad. Yet the gaming industry intentionally adds that shit to everything. Drives me crazy.

 

[Anteater]

Kai Leng the game

The last part was really cool, and dat wet floor, I hope that's the next cool thing everyone is going to put in their games, water and puddles everywhere!

 

[TheExodu5]

Lighting looks gorgeous. I do hope no one uses that terrible "dirty camera lens" filter, though.

 

[Ingueferroque]

That was incredible, the fake wall the player put up was a creative touch as well.

 

[Smellycat]

zur

 

[DieH@rd]

The video looks impressive but it still has that wax-y, CGI look.

Which is awesome, In moments this demo really looked like CGI. We heave finally arrived at that point that we can get CGI-like realtime cinematics in video games.

 

[meppi]

*Killzone Shadow Fall (alpha build)

Except with better gameplay and story, even though this was just a movie.

Man, I really want to see a new Unreal Championship.

 

[GameSeeker]

I'll preface my comments with " Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

To this beholder, this looks far less beautiful than KZ:SF. A color palette of 80% grays is boring and borderline ugly. I love how the "good guys" and "bad guys" wear the same boring gray uniforms. From a tech side, Unreal Engine 4 will deliver the goods and be excellent, but this demo was less interesting that the last one (fire & ice demo).

 

[D4Danger]

These sort of videos do nothing for me. I'd much rather see someone aimlessly walking around in a game world than these hollywood trailers.
