Stompy robot action games are making a welcome comeback, and one of the brightest upcoming stars in the underserved genre is Hawken, a fast-paced first-person shooter built using Unreal Engine 3.

Last year at GDC 2011, Epic Games unveiled their Unreal Engine 3 Samaritan demo in partnership with NVIDIA, giving gamers a preview of next-generation graphics.
