Gamebryo takes 4 out of (a) Top 10


Things like this happen on an almost minute-to-minute basis, but I'd be remiss in my job if I didn't point it out when I see it (totally recognizing I'm risking an inaccurate shill-pimping perception here).

But at least at 10:32 a.m. October 6, 2008, Gamebryo-powered titles included 4 out of the 10 "Most Popular" titles on GameSpot.com (including #1):
  1. Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
  2. Dragon Age: Origins
  3. Fallout 3
  4. Little Big Planet
  5. Spore
  6. Civilization IV: Colonization
  7. The Witcher Enhanced Edition
  8. Worldshift
  9. Silent Hill Homecoming
  10. Fable II

So, Gamebryo's under the hood of new PC MMO contender Warhammer Online; anticipated triple-A RPG title Fallout 3 (PS3/360/PC); PC Sci-Fi/Fantasy RTS Worldshift; and PC strategy title Civilization IV: Colonization (Gamebryo was also in the mix for the title's Civilization: Revolution PS3 and 360 brothers).

Not bad for the middleware engine that can -- and does -- over and over again, across hundreds of titles, a dozen-plus genres, and a bunch o' platforms.

(FYI, this post delays the initiating event by a bit, because I was verifying the status of one of the titles.)
