This new rendering engine looks cool and could be a alternative to marmoset. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4HIKwdybTU&feature=em-subs_digest"]Element 3D Demonstration - YouTube[/ame]

Looks amazing! Can't wait to see a modeling reel done with this!

Interesting, definitely neat for video production.
I don't see how this is competition to Marmoset or UDK or Unity though as you need After Effects for it + $160 for the plugin. Something tells me that if you put together a reel for a job you should invest your money more wisely.

All the competition is pretty much free or very cheap and produces excellent results.

looks great at first glance, but would be interesting to see how it handles normalmaps, like is it synched to the tangentspace of any 3d tool? How does it handle shadows, or alpha sorting. does it support displacement and tesselation?
