Hard Reset kinda came out of nowhere... its kind of a Doom slash Painkiller first person shooter with unbelievably detailed graphics!

The Legend Of Grimrock is an indie role playing game made with absolutely professional stature. Boasting high quality graphics, close cooridors, exploration, in-your-face action, 4 classes, and all the weapons, spells, monsters your RPG heart could want.

Wolfenstein has been a long-running franchise starting with the original Castle Wolfenstein in 1981 to Wolfenstein 3D (1992) as one of the first 3 dimensional games. Then later in 2001 Return to Castle Wolfenstein continued the story by revisiting the original concept but with more efficient graphics and stunning visuals... but that wasn't enough. In 2009 Ravensoft developed yet another Wolfenstein with modern graphical capabilities opening a whole new world in the Wolfenstein franchise.
Unreal Tournament 3 really isn't a name that glorifies what the Unreal engine really can do. It should be Unreal State-of-the-Art!
The UT3 engine is so advanced that many huge successful games like Borderlands, Gears of War and many more famous games were created in its wake!
