Actually you might find it interesting that all the textures used in Unreal 3 engine games are 2D textures.

Like what I mean is even though a brick wall looks like the bricks are coming out,it's only a flat wall shape,with a texture of bricks on there,with a special algorithm for shadow casting,so that the flat wall looks 3d.It saves cpu and gpu usage,and is why things look great in unreal 3 engine games.

If you go into the map editor in unreal 3,you can mess around with the materials they have,and they cast different shadows,and all you've done is apply it to a 2D wall you've drawn :)
