I can say the reputation is for some serious reason !

Well don't forget some points of Unity
- Big team
- They are not working on a game in priority one instead of the engine
- Iphone and Nintendo WII versions ( go to their forum and see how some iphone games can be sold a lot ! )
- An mmorpg game have already be done with Unity.
- engine is choosen for the next mmorpg of Age of conan team.
- Lot more professionnal and serious team indeed
- All in one Easy editor : Go to their forums to see how many new little games can appear in one week !!

That's the points i like.
But i agree like in the old time , Gamecore engine is going on the good way and road , the team is beginning to be more professionnal, you will only see it during the year.

Just some questions :
- Will Gamecore keep on the road , or will it scratch on the sideway like before (no news of the engine and team during months ) ?
- will gamecore users have some updates during this year ??

That two last questions can make some people be carefull and put money in something more sure like A7 (A8 ?) , Unity or Torque 3D.
