I stumbled upon an article today on geek.com regarding some interesting news about the unreal engine.
Apparently the Unreal Team is already hard at work on Unreal Engine 4, despite the fact that it won’t run on current hardware. In fact not even the next generation of consoles, which we know virtually nothing about, are up to the task.
In fact, speculation suggests that a cpu with 12 (or more) cores might be required to properly handle the engine.
Makes me kinda sad to know that not even my 4ghz hyper-threaded i7 beast is up to the challenge… I guess it’s back to the drawing board for the hardware team.
