@TheTruthIsGonnaHurt You're a BIG NICE FLUFFY IDIOT - keep that on mind. A presentation for a game engine doesn't have to be a FPS demo so you can go "OMG LOLZ ZIS RULLZ ME WANNA PLAY" , it's just a demo showing the power of the engine , and here , something like 1,000,000 strings of grass smoothly "dancing" in the wind show a hell lot of power.
This is the kind of thing I've been waiting to see in terms of video games merging with art: something like the striking qualities of nature merged with the ability to represent anything we wish. This sort of thing, and not the latest shader revision/improved CPU power/etc. is the future of gaming.
the demo is of small mesh elements being strung out along surface normal vectors with a linear interpolation through some kind of perlin noise function. Not anything most engines couldn't do. I think that as you suggest, it is computing power which makes all the difference. However it is a very cool vid and inspires one to imagine possible games might create with such techniques. Giant caterpillars perhaps, or navigating through strange energy fields maybe.
Game Graphic Engine doesn't means it is a game ,ya know :)
It can be a powerful Engine for another usages, such as....Special Video FX, Real Time Render Movies/Animation. Especially for nowadays HD technology, Pixel based Pre-rendered CG seen a little older.
Its cool and all, but all i see is millions of polygons and some shaders and possibly some physics on those strands of cloth or w/e they are. It doesent really show off much that game engines usually show off. I think you mean its a techdemo, not game engine. But nevertheless its cool.
Beautiful!!!

This is a game engine? No, I see a bunch of lines with physical proprieties submit to a dynamic environment. I don't see what you can do with that.

I want those 3:48 of my life back. This is not a game engine. This is a waste of time.
Hear I am thinking , oh cool namco is going to show us a game engine that they will use to make next gen games.
Maybe we will see a fighting game or the next FPS.
Nope, I get a f**king kaliedoscope of fuzzy tubes.

They're really good looking fuzzy balls. That's the point.

unless its got a really good processor and allot of ram and 500GB on it it wouldn't crash then.

If this is a game, then it would be the the most obscure game ever.

That's really cool! But I don't think it's a game engine. It looks like a toilet scrubber on acid.
Youtube's quality doesn't do it justice either.

wonder what game engine does Namco use for their games?

That's the Result of Artist + Programmer
From Namco game engine performance demo
I't true.. They are surely polygons
