Has anyone used cryEngine 3 or Visual 3D Game Engine? Are they any good? Which one is better? Opinions?
What do you guys think is the best game engine out there?
I have been using GameStudio A7 and like the Lite-C language. I'm also starting to learn how to work with XNA to develop games for the Xbox360 (still have a good ways to go) and also like the C# language as well. I like them both, and think both have their pro's and cons. (for both 2d and 3d games)
What are your takes?
Are there other good game engines you guys like?
Also...I've been using Maya and Blender...and think blender is a little better...what's the best way to use blender with the game engines(file conversions? - with what?)?

I am slowly learning how to work with Maya came up on a bit of a snag...I can't extrude a poygon's face....here is what I do:
1. In the side view, select Mesh > Create Polygon Tool
2. Place the points (6) counter-clock wise to close the plygon
3. Press the q key to quit the Create Polygon Tool when the polygon face is complete.
-The new polygon component remains selected in Object Mode.
To convert the object selection to face selection
1. With the face still active in Object Mode, choose Select > Convert Selection > To Faces.
The selection is converted to a face selection.
To extrude the polygon face for the lower front region
1. Enlarge the scene view to a single perspective view.
2. With the polygon face still selected, choose Edit Mesh > Extrude.
The extrude manipulator appears on the selected face.
*This is where my problem occurs....the extrude manipulator doesn't applear...any ideas?
**What I think is happening is that its not converting to a face?

Hello to everyone on the board. I have recently taken an interest in creating games as a hobby (now that i have a bunch of free time). Only one problem...the only experience I have is a little C++ programming about 10 years ago (in high school).
I wanted everyone's opinion on how I should get started. I recently bought gamestudio a7 and the Autodesk Maya 2010 suite - and am going through the tutorials.
Any hints...suggestions...tutorials...or other great sites that might help my learning curve?
