I just wrote something up for City of Steam that uses the Unity engine and it is pretty amazing. Definitely comparable to Havok which has been one of the biggest names in the industry. It's nice to see Unity getting the attention it deserves.

I think your a little confused. Unity is awesome, I use it myself. I just think your confused about what it is. Unity is a game engine. Havok is a physics engine. You dont really compare the 2.

Heh heh..I wasn't confused, just tired and not thinking strait. I was thinking Quake but my fingers obviously wanted to make me look like a dork. Thanks for pointing that out to me and helping me save a little of my dignity. :)

Very solid engine if you ask me. I have worked with it a few times on some projects and it always goes very smoothly.

100% deserved, the engine is a godsend for newcomers to the development industry like myself. Instead of making everything automatic is just makes things very simple so you actually learn while you're freely creating. tried UDK and sucked major ass at it and wasn't making much progress, then i got into unity and after a few months on it UDK actually became easier to understand and use. Although honestly i think Unity has a LOT more flexibility in terms of what you can produce
