Over the last few years deferred rendering has been massive in the development of gaming, with massive titles such as 'Killzone' and '
ead Space' making use of it. Deferred renderes store all the passes without drawing them until the last possible second, or in simple terms; this gives developers the possibility to include maximum detail and lighting in their games. Unfortunately, this hasn't taken off entirely in the gaming scene due to its flaws, such as the lack of anti-aliasing support (software which smooths out the jagged or blurred areas created). The latest Unreal Engine 3 supports deferred rendering, but developers Epic claim to have solved the issue of anti-aliasing, as they have made the default anti-aliasing software (Multi-Sampling-Anti-Aliasing or MSAA) work with deferred rendering.

Bokeh depth of field providing close to film-quality DOF, with artist-controllable Bokeh.
Bokeh is the aesthetic quality of the blur or in-out-of-focus areas of an image, moving or still. The improvements in the latest Unreal Engine have led to significantly improved depth of field (DOF) effects and sounds, making use of tools previously exclusive to the film industry.
Adaptive Bokeh Depth of Field:

These are improvements on shadows which are based on dynamic light sources, or objects which are moving. Examples of their improvement on dynamic-shadow based reflections can be seen below.

Another feature announced by developers Epic was Tessellation, which allows them to create more detail in their games while using less system resources.
The Xbox 360's graphics processor supports tessellation, but it has yet to be used.

Hopefully, it won't be wasted on Call of Duty, lol.

But Call of Duty might actually be good if they do that :carling:
