Epic Citadel - Unreal Engine for iPad, iPhone 4, New iPod Touch - High Definition Overview

[SMURFF707]

Looks better than wii

[wststechnology]

I wonder if an android device can do it too.

Maybe.

[JFrameMan]

@wststechnology android already has epic citadel and it's getting the full unreal engine 3 development kit. android devices have more powerful cpus and tablets already have quad cores, so it's not surprising. My sister has optimus 2x and it can do a pretty good job of rendering epic citadel to TV at a better resolution, even tho optimus 2x has a weaker and much older cpu than the 4s and it's half the price.

[UnwashedGoblin]

I mean this just shows the capabilities of the iDevices I bet no other phone/tablet will run this game so smoothly with such stunning graphics. I love Apple, Steve Jobs and all his products. Rest in Peace you wonderful wonderful man...

[AwwC00L]

@UnwashedGoblin most tablets are at least 4 time more capable than the ipad 2

[ceofi]

@UnwashedGoblin There are already plenty of phones and tablet devices that are much more performant than everything Apple has till now. For this you should give credits to the Epic team and their engine, not Steve Jobs and co.

[iEnjoiSushi]

... Amnesia must be made for the iPad

[weyg]

to bad thats not a real reflection 1:15

[immortalregis247]

Wish could release a full blow game with this engine on the iPad and I'm not talking about infinity blade . . . Maybe the action on infinity blade but with the free range of movement shown in this video

[Dasht206]

An Awesome New iPhone and iPad Game----

first app that can read your mind....

Go to iPhone App Store and Download "Cursed Symbols"

itunes.apple.com/us/app/cursed­¬-symbols/id464585786?ls=1&mt=­8¬

[oducayen]

1:13 he comes in his pants.

[biggerben2010]

@just4boobies602 no, retard, android can handle epic citadel and some android phones greater than iPhone gpu. So symbian should give up not android.

[theuser533]

My PC can't even run games like this >.<

[iAppsReviewer2011]

@Marcoperli LMFAO little button cell power caculators...my computer can't even run crysis:(

[irikedagames]

@just4boobies602 Except Unreal Engine is Android capable too.

[MadGreenRobot]

@irikedagames Except I don't see any games on Android that uses Unreal Engine in the manner that is shown in the video, else I wouldn't have to sell off the POS Honeycomb tablet just 3 weeks after purchase. And more off-putting is despite the dearth of solid 3D games on their Tegra 2, Nvidia has shoved it aside and are now trying to push Tegra 3!

BTW Epic Citadel demo is not found on both Android Market and Tegra Zone, whereas it is a free download from iTunes store.

[just4boobies602]

And this is the part where android with symbian should give up.

[RaiCoss]

Reminds me of Oblivion.

[appleiphone4kid]

why is this free? -_-

[marcopereli]

Next thing you know crysis is on calculators

[apple3346004]

i would still recomend unity 3d its much more flexible its easier to make games form scratch on that engine

[caroseldan]

@apple3346004 its really not

[apple3346004]

@caroseldan well its not for every one if you dont like it im fine with that ou are free to chose what you want to do with your life dont let others tell you what to do

[xColdfiret]

Also try out Dungeon Defenders its powered by unreal engine, its a pretty nice game.

[XDosShane]

Tempting, but I still think I'm going to wait on the PS Vita

[CommendatoreAndolini]

Reminds me of Runescape :P

[ace942]

This demo reminds me of the Journeyman Project series from Presto Studios. It too had a similar photo realism to its game although obviously not as good as this. I wonder what kind of games will come out with this engine?

[theogore]

I want to go to there...

[Edwinteror]

@SirAdminThe3rd Chill man. I just got the iPhone 4. HAPPY? I am serious. Peace.

[IkeKaran]

make $8+ a day in less then a month NO SKILLS /watch?v=BMPhsRN19Ms

[stufaos]

@SirAdminThe3rd i havent.... but you heard the sound quality on this thing???? expecially when the bell rings.. i mean way better than the PSP..

and the reflections on the ground.. beautifull.... the iphone actually impressed me, wich i never tought it would be possible... bcs im not a big fan of apple...

[Edwinteror]

@SirAdminThe3rd Did I offended your apple? I am sorry. Isn't iPhone a mobile device too? Retard. When the NGP comes out, go cry in the corner while I play a portable gaming device with PS3 graphics.

[SpiderVenok]

@SirAdminThe3rd lol i cant remember asking that but i think i did cause you called it Elder OF scrolls so i was annoyingly correcting u looool

[markothevrba]

@SirAdminThe3rd Dude... english you speak no? -.-

[20skullkid]

its free :D



[clevelandsmith65]

has a ASSASSINS CREED LOOK

[Hydrozaft]

@Track19Films Yeah I know. O 3 O

[OoyamatsukamioO]

sure the ipod can handle this but honestly the controls make me want to break the ipad in half, they suck so much it bothers me just thinking about it. i saw this on the ngp and i thought wow i bet its really enjoyable with two anologs and then it hit me! iWILL get the ngp!

[SpiderVenok]

reminds me of fable 3

[raver0ller]

Looks alot like oblivion.We need to see elder scrolls on these platforms using this engine!!!!!

[zeramino]

This reminds me of the elder of scrolls...

[SpiderVenok]

@zeramino Elder of scrolls? whats that?

[emcosta1981]

I feel like that little kid from "the incredibles" watching Mr. Incredible lifting the car...

[majav15mg]

The iPhone has huge huge potential... it's just that for now the games are mostly rip off from console ones...

[Edwinteror]

Hello Apple fanboys. PSP2 code named sony NGP just owned this stupid meaningless app. Search PSP2 Sony NGP Uncharted at youtube and look at it. PS3 graphics, u can walk around, kick some asses. COME ON MOBILE GAMING WILL NEVER BEAT A GAMING DEVICE!!! I am not saying that iDevices are bad. PSP 2 is stronger than it but I like iPhone too. I will buy both if I can.

[XXXxxxGAVESxxxXXX]

@Edwinteror your stupid, psp2 hasn't even came out yet, and a PHONE!, has this technology for about a year. so yea....and the psp2 is mobile gaming, or portable gaming (same thing) so iphone wins cuz this is just starching the surface of what the iDevices can do, + there will be new more powerful devices every year that will easily surpass you psp2 in no time. iDevices can be upgraded yearly, playstation only every 4-5 years. basically your just gay.

[Shayd93]

@XXXxxxGAVESxxxXXX Basically your iphone is just touch-screen smart phone and only retarded fanboy thinks that Ipad/Iphone/Ipod touch could beat other consoles, NGP is stuffed with technology that'll last years, you keep dreaming of getting games like COD or NFS being released on PHONE lacking on any buttons? You are sick. Get over it apple sucks, and will never beat any other company, ever. E-V-E-R Stick your iphone in ass

[Edwinteror]

@XXXxxxGAVESxxxXXX Stop crying and play your iDevice bitch. Are you getting jealous? Did I offend you? Screw you. And isn't iPhone for mobile gaming? Don't tell me you buy it just for messaging shit.

[stufaos]

how can this have better graphics than the PSP??? xD

sony just got pwned (again)

[hackingdevice4uu]

does it work on iphone 3gs?

[MileProwersFan]

THIS IS THE NGP(PSP2) THING!

[DownHillSk8rTV]

@MileProwersFan

Are you stupid? I have the same app on my ipod...

[MrSomeGamerdude]

which i system are you using in this video? ipad, iphone or itouch?

[birdman3878]

this is a tech demo not a game

[angrypooman96]

so what do u do?

[Kyrios996]

What kind of game is this?.. is this even a game?

[mvenom101]

Absolute visual bliss for the given technology!

100% props to the engine developers, their srtipped down version of the unreal engine, shows us just how much power we hold in our hands, wasting it on angry birds.... :D

[waj171]

2:44 I JUST JIZZED MYSELF!!! :D

[helix254]

When i first saw this on my friends ipad, i thought it was a demo to Elderscrolls V.. :D

[bart3tears]

look how small the ipod is compare to psp and still has better graphics

[ellay10]

i have infinity blade for the 3gs and it not look like this why?

[leon500able]

infinity blade plus this =:D :D :D

[choobeffect]

Now all they need to do is make Myst

[amoungthefree]

Rofl these graphics arent impressive HEY GUESS WHAT THESE GRAPHICS HAVE BEEN ON SOMETHIN ELSE FOR LIKE 2 YEARS OR SO I WONDER WHAT? A APPLE PRODUCT? NO ITS CALLED A PC WINDOWZ STYLE :p

[AnimeSage285]

@amoungthefree lol. I totally agree with you.

[amoungthefree]

@AnimeSage285  :D

[FrozenPixelStudio]

@amoungthefree If you google for iPhone 4/iPad specs you will see that this is awesome. I'm not Apple fanboy, I'm using Windows :D All the credit goes to developers, for being able to do something like this on a low power machine.

[amoungthefree]

@FrozenPixelStudio My point isnt that its not amazeing they can do this on a low power machine my point is (ITS ALREADY BEEN FUCKING DONE WHY DOWNGRADE TO LOWER MACHINE ITS NOT LIKE ON THE GO GAMES ARE PLAYED ALL THE TIME YOU CANT DO IT IN A CAR OR AT WORK ITS LIKE WAITING FOR A MOVIE IT MIGHT BE GOOD THEN BUT NOT OTHER TIME ROFLMAO capslock broke... ROFL I CAN FIX IT AND NOT USE CAPZ BUT I ARE DEH LAZEH

[FrozenPixelStudio]

@amoungthefree Many people would disagree with you. I have HP ProBook, very powerful laptop, which is very heavy and I fucking hate to carry it around. (it is not even so small compared with iPad)

Also, if you ever kept a laptop in the lap you know that it can become very hot. iPad doesn't have these problems.

[amoungthefree]

@FrozenPixelStudio :3 i never use anything portable (i once had a psp thinking the same thing other people thought "Oh this is awesome i have a playstation whenever i need it!" but it turned out i could only use it whenever i had a chance to sit down and not think about anything else and the only time i have like that is at home.)

[HeartBeatRobber]

I will throw my ( NOKIA N900 ) from the window....

I hate Nokia...

[That1Mexican209]

im waiting for a mw shooter with these graphics

[markothevrba]

PSP just got its ass handed to it by a phone :D

[DrVegasIII]

@markothevrba Thats been happening for a while now! Especially now because i think ALL EA games are just ONE dollar!! (dont know if they will go back up to orignal price after the hollidays?)  Cant go wrong with getting all 3 Need For Speed games for just $3!!!!!

[Shayd93]

@markothevrba watch?v=WyNSJHafxrA WATCH AND CRY FANBOY

[markothevrba]

@Shayd93 Congrats, you found a video of the new PSP...

PS: I have a PSP and don't have anything from apple :P

[Timmitous]

@markothevrba Fuck you, psp owns this!

[YOTTR]

@markothevrba In your crappy little iOS fanboied dreams you twit.

[Hydrozaft]

I can't wait for games that are based on this engine :)

[Track19Films]

@Hydrozaft Unreal engine? Google it.

[kinghofpc]

unreal engine epico!! the best!

[OnlyFoolsAndHorsesHQ]

I'm not one for complaining, but this is set sometime in the Medievel Times right. So why are there contrails in the sky above. I don't think the invention of flight was invented then, but, I could be wrong.

[muffin8or]

@OnlyFoolsAndHorsesHQ

At what time is that?

[MyMisteryMe]

This was created in 8 weeks.

[oblivimix95]

In my opinion this is useless because all I can get from this is an hour of pure EPICNESS because of my iPod's dreadful battery when it comes to games :P

[X3LNAGA]

@armykid0000 this was just a demonstration....the real game is going to come out for the holiday season and is going to be called Infinity Blade

[armykid0000]

are the ygonna update dis game cuz all i can do is walk around r dey gonna put like missions n stufff?

[MyMisteryMe]

@armykid0000 Hardly, this is more like a preview of the capabilities of the apple devices and the unreal engine 3.

[dorkvader1881]

considering the wii isn't powerful enough to run UE3...the iphone 4 must be amazing

[ForbiddenReviewer]

@tripleh3lix No but what you have to realise is that the resolution of the ipod touch is quite small. And so if you were to play on say a 1024 x 768 resolution the graphics wouldn't even scratch the wii. But im not saying the graphics are bad. They are still amazing for such a small device.

[GotGrassCt]

These Graphics are... UNREAL

[GotGrassCt]

i would get an iPod touch 4G JUST for this game...

[kazora1001]

Yea man it is a demo for their upcoming game, infinity blades

[VeryDusty1]

@kazora1001 Do you know when "Infinity Blades" is coming out? :]

[kazora1001]

@VeryDusty1 hm rumor has that it will be out on 2 dec :)

[girlsdrinkfeck]

it dosnt use dx11 , fail

[lappodude]

@girlsdrinkfeck LOL.. why must i ask??

[XStalkerPSPGameplays]

add some enemies on screen and the framerate is crippled.

[darkshadowsaver]

@XStalkerPSPGameplays check out the trailer for infinity blade this is where the demo comes from.

[Venom3761]

By the way, you can go in some of the tents :)

[6littleMERMAIDS]

Why do you have baby hands??

[Venom3761]

@6littleMERMAIDS Lol, He's using an iPad

[unsafedani]

what do u do in this game

[darkshadowsaver]

@unsafedani its not a game its a tech demo for the unreal engine.

[killerbiller35]

so the game is just walking around or are there like fights and quests?

[renski333]

@killerbiller35 same question here, haven't seem anyone playing it, just walking around

[fionnbharr1]

The one downside of such epic graphics? Being unable to run it on earlier versions of IpodTouch.

Thanks Steve Jobs, you and all your development lackies, for making sure that the most Epic application ever designed is too high qaulity to run on some of your Products. Jesus Lads, This is so far beyond anything i've ever seen anyone do with an app, I'd even take i' at a reduced graphics level.

[bioswat96]

Epic games dont make bad games !

[GiruDiruVisu]

those one with a iphone 3G has fucked up.... damn

[tuntitommosille]

I tried this out. The on-screen controls are ok for walking and looking around, but for any kind of action game where you need to shoot, jump, etc, you really need to have buttons on the back of the tablet where you're gripping it.

[goldboyjr]

MULTIPLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[goldboyjr]

They stuck a ps3 into it:D oh & what if apple has a secret way to watch u tru the cam on ipod4-.-" Like u could just be playing games & u would'nt kniw

[philipchan811]

wt will happen if runescape using unreal engine.....

[an7r1x]

OH MY GOD! This breaks the WoW graphics! o_0

[Pwningninja22]

@an7r1x I have no idea why you are shocked.

WoW graphics was always ugly and i don't see it why you are shocked when an Iphone game beat the WoW graphics.

[Airking11]

ok, time to port gta 4 to ipod touch 4g!!! I hope rockstar does this!

[DerangedGames]

Damnnm these are better graphics than my 16:9 inch Laptop :L

[DJBV]

well i hope more game companies try to make better games than 1/2 hours games on those devices but the touch controls are still not the best way to play without buttons i dont think i'll ever enjoy an iphone game more than on psp or nds

[spongeprince123]

is it more laggy on the ipod touch than on the iphone4? 

[NeonKing2754]

@spongeprince123 do you have ipod touch 4g

[morganraynerphil]

now all they need to do is add some players and weapons, and they could make a game like cod4.

[lazygamer247]

he's scottish

[jamh666init]

add me on game centre. II Jammy

[MysticGon]

It quite literally took your breath away @ 1:11! I love it!

[CheifPaco]

Irish?

[minec123]

sexyy lighting lol

[IISMDII]

just tried it on my 3gs. great app, didnt know, what my iphone was capable of!

[Keydo7]

Its about time someone tapped into the incredible power of Apple's mobile devices.

[Phosphorus16]

You have an awesome accent.

[BenThomasFoster]

Lol most xbox games don't looks this good suppose its got 0 AI

[hasawasa22]

3:29

is the flag...physx animated? O_o

[TheEvilSchmoo]

This tech demo is really amazing. I'm still blown away by the amount of power such a small skinny device can pull out. I can only imagine what this thing could possibly do a year or two from now.

I only wish I could play it on my ipod touch (2nd gen) =(

[ki11erdrag0n]

will this run on the 2008 ipod touch? thanks guys

[AntaresBFJX]

@ki11erdrag0n definetly not due to super low ram compared to the new touch (twice memory) and iphone 4

[lXxMasterShakexXl]

Is this like crysis for the ipod/iphone in terms of its highest graphics lol

[renno0301]

I'm truly impressed.

[a3r0v1p3r]

Works on my 3gs with iOS 4 :D Its so EPIC :D

[konsul2006]

Wouldn't wanna play a game like this with just crappy onscreen controls. Too much fingers and hands are in the way. Nice graphics though :) How do you "strife" anyways???

[Sam3r26]

relax people this is only tech demo

[T3hMarz]

imagine Unreal iTournament!!!

or iBioshock

O_o

[YOTTR]

@T3hMarz Just keep imagining,here is a solution buy a vita and play console like games on that.

[Foodie88]

You sound like Sean Bean hehe ;)

[MrDelGibbons]

@Foodie88 err, is that a compliment lol lol

[Foodie88]

@MrDelGibbons I guess it is, he is pretty famous for his voice overs, for instance as Martin in The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion

[vizard00]

@MrDelGibbons now its unreal

[xwalshyx]

@Foodie88 ok... put a video of sean bean and then this guy. NOTHING alike.Sean bean has a yorkshire-ish voice.

[Foodie88]

@xwalshyx Just listen to him as Martin in Oblivion. Especially the first 15 seconds of this video sounds alike to me.

[densle1]

Lol. leave it to Epic Games to blow your mind.

[fungeh]

So u walk around in a town....epic game ftw.

[Midnightmoon02]

@fungeh Yeah, I'm wondering when they'll actually put some gameplay into this game.

[GamerJulio]

@fungeh Two words: TECH DEMO. >.>'
