Epic thought they would become a dominant force in the videogame industry with their Unreal Engine 3 licensed for the "real next-gen"...

The fact Wii is such a success hurts these guys, because it will make their graphic engine look "less essential" to many devs out there, who will now try to get the max out of the Wii, even by creating their own "homemade" engine... while big budgets games for PS3 will not be seen as good investments for at least a few more years... so no money for Epic then...

That's all there is to say about it: Epic games will sell well enough on the 360/PS3, but to a very limited portion of the gaming world, when these guys believed all the industry was about "next-gen" FPS, hopefully created thanks to UE3... now, they're anger and bitter, and try to ridicule Wii on every occasion...

And who cares outside of the hardcore internet crowd anyway? It won't change anything, it's already too late, Wii is a virus, as they say... and people buy more and more games for it, a proof the console is getting played, and enjoyed... yes, even without any UE3 made games... sorry, Epic, that's life... maybe next gen...
