Games developers are being spoiled for choice recently with the engines they can experiment with and use free of charge. Unity is free to use, Unreal Engine has gone free to use, and now today Crytek has announced the rather delicious CryEngine 3 is now free of an up front payment too.
Of course, the free model these engines work on means they only remain that way as long as your project is non-commercial. Want to sell the game you made? Then Crytek, as with the others will want some cash in the form of a standard licensing agreement. But until that point you have free access to the code base and tools, meaning you can learn without spending a dime.
