Game looks superb graphically. They really nailed the atmosphere in that video.
Probably Anvil engine 2.0. Frostbite is for EA devs only.

Frosbite is EA internal. This is probably of the two (three?) Ubisoft internal engines normally used or a custom job

1st pic looks like artwork to be honest...still, 2nd pic looks incredible.
Bullshot?

I know, it was a poke to point out the stuff on the screen.

Hard to tell from the low resolution footage but the lighting looks particularly impressive.
Those screenshots look a lot better than how it looked on the show floor. They look like total bullshots.

footage looks nice. I wish pople actuall made good hands in video games.
Also that bullet damage was fucking awesome, nice sounds, huge impact.

IT KEEPS HAPPENING.
Diffrent versions? Shots look really awesome...maybe to awesome.

yea the ambient occlusion in the environment is also really well done.
Maybe, some of the pics on the site use 'conceptart' and others use 'screenshot', I think Ubisoft made up those names so I guess the screens are bullshots like you said
The laundry one looks too good, like a concept render or something. The zombie close-up one doesn't look that good.
Love the atmosphere. That video looks amazing.
EDIT: Now I missed your edit lol
those pics look really good but this is from the company that borught us Red Steel a few year ago so I'll wait for some more gameplay vids
The baked lighting is strong but you can see the flashlight doesn't cast many realtime shadows.

Wow, that footage was surprisingly impressive. If this game really nails the survival feel it could be a real gem. The first person animations gave me a Far Cry 2 vibe.

There's one in the OP and a ton from E3. Game looks really good.

The only game that even has me interested in owning a WiiU at the moment.
I have loved everything I have heard about it thus far.

Direct feed of the E3 demo, but scripted to look like a movie (similar to what Sony did with The Last Of Us).
I like it, day one and my Wii U system-seller.

Looks like you don't know much about the game.

real time shadows can be disabled, as they lead to big hit in the frame rate (in most games). I think even in Left 4 Dead real time shadows were disabled

2nd shot instantly reminded me of Red Steel.
There may be some scripted encounters, but the game is not on rails.

Exactly what I was about to post. I'm having a hard time believing they're real, but a lot of things point to it. This is great news if true, the game looks fantastic.
Start off as screenshot, goes through photoshop.
thery are preparing a new build for Gamescon, I don't know if at Comicon they are presenting the same E3 build. the video and the screens look improved, especially thanks good lighting. Having played the game I can tell that that was already the best part of the game, technically.
but I'm really liking the game itself, not only for the controls (maybe the best ones for a Wii U game up to now) but also for the gameplay ideas they are putting in it (not like Red steel that was all based on controls curiosity, resulting also not so well programmed under that point of view)
the demo I played was good at controls and good at atmoshpere so I'm really interested

I still can't believe that the two games I want most at the Wii U launch are both Ubisoft games. Zombi U may end up being rough around the edges, but the idea is too solid for me to pass it up. (And AC3 just looks fucking awesome.)
From the site:

It looked like only the zombies cast realtime shadows. It'd also probably be more dramatic if they didn't have the flashlight origin so close to being centered on the player's camera (you'd see more of the shadow if it was off center).
Pointing a flashlight around in a dark room can be super creepy in itself because the shadows will dance around in real life -- it's a shame they couldn't capture that in the game.

I see. Oh well, the footage still looks great.
