This is some of the more potential tools I've seen in a while. unity 3d has the possibility to run games on iphone, wii, normal fullscreen and Internet browsers. It's considered to be a flash-"killer" of sorts. It's apparently so easy to import files from maya/max/photoshop that even artists could make a game with the right tutorial

It started was mac only, but with 2.5 its now available to windows users as well. Unfortunately you have to pay for this(30 day trial though), but the indie package costs 200$, the full package costs 1500$. absolutely not a bad price considering the potential we got here.

Blurst got some crazy games made with it, good examples
Wiki article
Blog about the fancyness of unity 3d.


Personally i've been looking around for something like this. If i find the time for it in the near future I'd love to create something fancy with these tools.

edit: something else that might be nice to know: programming languages supported, javascript, c#, and Boo(some python dialect).

another edit: found a list of the differences between the indie and pro versions. link
