glad and sad

I am glad Valve is coming, but i am really concerned with Unigine. I really hope their sales will increase. I really hope more companies will use their engine.

Will there be Rift integration?

I bought the Oil Rush on DVD with Win/Apple/Linux installer and I also received Steam password so I was able to connect the DVD with Steam and now I have it on one PC installed trough Steam and on another trough DVD and it works very well So no need to wait :P

You can use Oil Rush key in Steam ( for now only Windows/Mac ofc ) & Desura
Part of e-mail & received this morning:

Please note that you can also activate your key in Steam (Windows) or Desura (Windows, Linux) (enter the key without hyphens, "-" symbols) for more convenient updates (faster download, less traffic). Bundle keys are also redeemable now on Desura.

So You can buy this game now & activate it later under Steam.

yep they need to give more options like unity to be more competitive.

So how come nobody uses this engine if it is clearly capable of outputting nice graphics?

I guess people are just too "brainwashed" by Unreal Engine 3 or something :P

The biggest argument that I've heard (multiple times) is that it's not the graphics quality, but the SDK, Toolkit, and content-building applications that make or break an engine.
