I believe you can find the answers to those questions by looking at each company's respective web site. And if you can't, it's going to be because they don't want you to know

Maybe gamedev.net or gamasutra.com would have it, I actually remember reading somewhere about their price but I forgot which one's most expensive (plus I dunno if the source was correct).

My *guess*(exp -> least exp):
Q3 -> UT -> Lithtech

Then you have new ones, like I heard Croteam is licensing their Serious Sam engine too... prolly least expensive though

I might be a little bit off but does anyone knows how much does it cost to license the Q3A or UT engine for a game? And how much does it cost to use the Litchtech engine (when you can't afford UT or Q3

"For a single title [6] license, we charge a $300,000 guarantee against an 8% royalty of the wholesale [7] price for the title"

So does it mean that it's 8% royalty, and even if that 8% doesn't cut $300,000 it's still $300,000?
