Never? Of all the games possible, you cite the one that is notoriously slow with all the bells and whistles turned on. I haven't had any problems with Unreal Tournament 3 or Medal of Honor 4 - which are both amazing to look at on an up to date video card. I mean, really, to the point I felt like I had to pinch myself. An amazing job was done on these two titles.
I guess the point is that the technology is there, it's cheap, and everyone can easily imagine the possibilities if it were implemented by SoftImage...
