Has Nintendo actually ever released an engine before? |
They don't often use the same game engine between games but have done so a few times recently. Typically, each game has a game engine specifically built for it.
Regarding this specific rumor, I can't dismiss it out right given that the Metroid Prime engine itself is a Retro modified version of Unreal Engine 2.
|
I think this is a rumor which begun with people implyinf they have found tidbits of UE2 source code on MP1. But it was really vague, don't know if it was ever confirmed.
|
In theory, Retro started development using Unreal Engine 2 but later on heavily modified the engine so that only a few notable features remained. Couldn't hardly call it UE2 anymore after all the changes, I presume.
|
Which is a good thing. If they can modify UE 2 that well, imagine how good they could modify UE 3.9? or UE 4?
|
Who says this isn't what Retro is working on? The rumor about Retro impressing Epic Games... may be close to the truth,
|
Tha was my point with my original post about MP using a modified UE2.
