Flexibility

I dunno, I'd put Reach in the top 10% of games visually from the previous Generation. It had a couple of issues, but I was pretty consistently wowed by it.
All that being said, Bungie gets a ton of flexibility out of using their own engine. They aren't tied to a single tool set. I mean, check out that Grognok video from the show last night. That's not something that you can just buy unreal and plop into your game.
