It's because they sleazily bought devmaster!!! Unity is listed as the #6 most reviewed commercial engine on the Devmaster game engine database. I'd say that makes it quite popular because devmaster is a goto site for researching game engines. devmaster.net Registrant: Domain Admin GarageGames 245 W. 5th ave Eugene OR 97401 US +1.5413453040 Fax: Domain Name: devmaster.net Registrar Name: Markmonitor.com Registrar Whois: whois.markmonitor.com Registrar Homepage: http://www.markmonitor.com Administrative Contact: Domain Admin GarageGames 245 W. 5th ave Eugene OR 97401 US +1.5413453040 Fax: Technical Contact, Zone Contact: Domain Admin GarageGames 245 W. 5th ave Eugene OR 97401 US +1.5413453040 Fax: Created on..............: 2003-03-06.
