edit: Bah, I watched the video, all they did was put a LOD system on a voxel engine. It looks like shit, maybe it would be good on DS or something but this isn't replacing polygons anytime soon. also, voxels don't move and they don't reflect (otherwise Shadow Warrior would have looked a LOT better) so I'm calling bullshit.
NAYSAYER.

And I wasn't aware that all tech demos looked fucking astounding.

And what you're saying is, they took an existing technology and made it better? FUCK THEM, INDEED>
