I guess what I'm really asking is why are the following games: BF2, Oblivion, SimCity, The Sims, GRAW, etc. not on the HL2 engine? Why do these developers insist on creating their own engine? I'm just asking because I'm wondering if the only reason for companies making new engines is because certain engines work with only certain games or not. Like can you use the HL2 engine for a RTS? how about WoW? Man WoW would look awesome if it had the HL2 engine, and BF2 would run a LOT better if it had the HL2 engine. The reason for my enthusiasim for this is because I recently found out (in another post here) that HL2 runs on DX6 cards which I think is absolutely fantastic.
