unreal engine is now FREE

[PHISH]

UE4 engine going completely free seems like a huge opportunity for dev/mod makers. If there ever will be a new CTF/TF project I wouldn't be surprised to see it eventually find a home on this engine:

Awesome stuff.. Now valve just needs to announce halflife 3 alongside their VR hardware...

and just one day later valve announces source 2:

Valve announced the Source 2 engine, the successor to the Source engine used in Valve's games since the launch of Counter-Strike: Source and Half-Life 2. "The value of a platform like the PC is how much it increases the productivity of those who use the platform. With Source 2, our focus is increasing creator productivity. Given how important user generated content is becoming, Source 2 is designed not for just the professional developer, but enabling gamers themselves to participate in the creation and development of their favorite games," said Valve's Jay Stelly. "We will be making Source 2 available for free to content developers. This combined with recent announcements by Epic and Unity will help continue the PCs dominance as the premiere content authoring platform."

That's huge..hopefully their tools don't suck this time around!
