Please do not let me serve on a jury. I am actually a crazy person.
Based internet, Based future, Based Unreal.
 
Unreal Engine 4 is incredible no joke. I have it just to mess with the incredible demo stuff people put up but WOW what a move from Epic.

This thing is gonna be huge this gen

On a related note, have there been any big budget AAA games made on UE4?

Not really yet but there is a ass ton of them on the way

You just can't beat that.

Damn, I was not expecting Epic to go that far. I know the landscape has changed, many AAA publishers have their own tech but the situation must be critical for Epic to literally give away their work for free.

What was the previous payment scheme? I know it was monthly fee, but royalties as well? Also, how was it with UDK?

Released? Not that Im' aware of, lots of great indie and middle budget stuff though. Most of MS' big upcoming Xbone exclusives seem to be UE4 (except halo), and several big Japanese companies have taken a shine to it (square, Capcom)
 
Off the top of my head upcoming big titles on UE4

Kingdom Hearts 3
Fable Legends
Dead Island 2
Sony Bends next title
Street Fighter V
Tekken 7
Scalebound
Crackdown
Gears of War 4

and a ton more.
