For my part Unity is the best thing i found in indie community.
So much powerfull features, ready to use.

Even the indie version is great, without all render to texture etc ...
you can already publish to a web browser, and have the standard shaders, lightening, all easy to put with their complete editors.

Just take a look at some of their tutorials, to see how easy and powerfull it is

I have work to do asta la vista
