I bought a small magazine on Game design and under a 3d modeling software section it mentions blender:

"…You may also like to try Blender at http://www.blender.org although the interface is not particularly kind to the beginner."

The magazine is called PC World Books- Build your own games and i bought it in Western Australia.

In the December/January issue of the French magazine Création Numérique, anarticle has been written about real time 3D engines. In the category of engines which do not need much programming, they dealt with Nova Omega, Subdo, Hyperion and the Blender Game Engine. This is what they said about Blender:

The case of the Game Engine of Blender is very special. It is completely integrated in that totally crazy application, extremely complete and still free just like Blender, which has been available for a long time on a 3,5” diskette! It is an amazing tool, which can almost function without programming, or by just simple Python scripting, possesses a new, excellent dynamic physics engine (Bullet Physics) and has everything in it to be a big one. But its integration in a complete 3D application (the only one in this category) diminishes strangely enough its utility for the adepts of the video games.
Anyway, the work done by the developers of the Blender game engine is attracting attention.
