Qube soft have started developing the Q engine,
you can find it at: http://www.qubesoft.com
It comes with full sdk and Qstudio, a user interface to the SDK
Also provided are MAx and Maya exportersQ studio was used in a Game design course. At the Mo I’m checking out the SDK section, seems good, handles XML, and Entity definitions are supported

I’ve been looking at Q as well and I’m impressed so far. It was pointed out to me by a guy who developed it called Servan (didn’t catch his last name) at the Bernie Stolar thing in Enterprise Ireland. He also co-developed the original Direct3D, so he knows what he’s talking about.
The most attrative thing about it, once you get past all the standard technical features is the licencing. It’s a free Windows licence but you have to pay for Playstation or XBox which are both supported. Theoretically, this makes it easy for a guerrilla developer to create a game under less stressful circumstances that’s ready for porting if it’s a success. (And made with porting in mind, of course).
