The GTA one, maybe Source.  AOC seems that have a good engine ( Unreal?).  Farcry / Crysis  engine was good.

The best engine must be Crysis, for open areas shotters, and Source, for corridor shotters (it also do open areas).

It seems most MMORPG games use a variant of Unreal, or a custom made. So Unreal has to be the winner of this thread. Anyway I don't like Unreal. And is much more a console engine than a PC one now. So is unoptimized for PC.

 

There's a game coming on 2009 call Mortal Online and it using the U3 engine. There's not much info on the game but there a trailer that looks pretty cool.

CryEngine and Hero Engine.

 

Nothing on the Hero Engine has been released yet. Has it?

they have video of the hero engine in action and it makes it look like i could go in and develop a world with my zero skills. Its really quite interesting plus it allows for streaming patches while you play and updating content without bringing the server down.

 

I know. They are making Old Republic with Hero Engine.

 

Here's a review of the Hero ENgine:

But so far nothing is released so you can play a game made with the Hero Engine. Everyone would LOVE to get their hands on the Hero Engine, but it costs a few hundred thousand dollars for a license.

Total War engine... by far.... anyone who's played Rome or Medieval 2 would understand why.

It's almost 2010, and I am just not wiling to tolerate clunky graphics while being told that "gameplay is more important than graphics". That excuse won't wash with me any more. I expect my games to have both good graphics and good gameplay.

My favorite engine?

Let me tell you what Melba Toast is packin' right here, all right. We got 4:11 Positrac outback, 750 double pumper, Edelbrock intake, bored over 30, 11 to 1 pop-up pistons, turbo-jet 390 horsepower. We're talkin' some f***in' muscle.

Oh right, game engine..  The Hero engine looks really promising but untill a game is released on it, I really cant say for sure.  The CryEngine/CryEngine2 have made some great games but all in all I would have to say my favorite is the Unreal Engine.

bah, you ruined my joke, was about to post about a 12 cylinder monster but you had to ruin it for me :(

 

Anyway, a good dev team with ideas, money and time in their hands > the engine used.
