    And by weep, I mean big, ugly man tears of joy. Like when your girlfriend says she wished you showed more emotion and then when you finally do tear up and cry (like at the end of Armageddon) she looks at you like you are a complete moron.

    This week at GDC, Epic Games have been showing off a new tech demo for the Unreal Engine 4 called Infiltrator and now it is online for all of our eye holes. Prepare your retinas for an assault of next-gen awesomeness. It is unknown if this is simply a tech demo or if this could possibly become a game years from now as Gears of War was after the debut of Unreal Engine 3.

    If you like futuristic settings and beautiful graphics having sex with your eyes then get ready.

    Nvidia surprised a lot of people at their press conference during CES 2013 by announcing their own handheld system, Project Shield. The Android device has a 5-inch 720p retinal touch display and houses Nvidia’s new Tegra chip which they showed off by giving a demonstration of the handheld using the Unreal 4 engine.

    Project Shield can run in 4K through an HDMI port on the system for those 0.5% percent of TV owners that have a 4K television. You should be able to get 5-10 hours of gameplay or 24 hours of video playback. No price or release date was given.

    Most things like this tend to fall by the wayside quickly but a handheld that is running Unreal Engine 4 and is open to developers should excite some gamers.
