As a PC Gamer, I'm very excited about this release.
Hoping for Playstation's sake that this one works out for them.


360 has to wait :mrgreen:
They can go nuts on Halo3 first I suppose :P

My video card is gonna melt.

Way to miss the highlights here... Epic says UT3 is running better now than Gears was last year, Sony is funding full optimization of the Unreal Engine 3 for the Cell Processor, and the PS3 version (and not the 360 version) will have full support for user generated content and mods straight from the PC... and while not mentioned recently, the PS3 version is supposed to offer keyboard/mouse support.

Well Ill play H3 till it launches. Also that user content from PC to PS3 gonna make modding for evil SO much easier.


Oh yeah damn you Rothbart with your bold print and empty promises.

keyboard/mouse?? the ps3 is called a console :roll: hmm im gonna buy it for the PC if my current pc is enough, coz im not gonna upgrade the pc coz im about to buy a gaming laptop 8)

Epic also halted development of this game for the 360 six months ago because of recurring difficulties. I don't have a source, however, which is a bit of a bummber.

Controllers exist for PC.
Why shouldn't keyboard/mouse exist for consoles?

I think that's a great idea, because FPS's have always felt better being played with keyboard/mouse.

I don't speak "NERD".

What does that mean... unreal optimization.

Great point. i am currently saving up to buy that ps3 controller put out buy split fish. the frag fx controller which basically makes your six axis into a mouse controller... its hard to explain so just look at it http://gear.ign.com/articles/799/799262p1.html
but yeah im psyched for the new ut even though i haven't played much of the other ones in the past (i can't afford a good gaming pc, and i hate windows), but seeing as how they are allowing user created content to cross over onto the ps3 and all the other goodies i cant remember ut may be the next HUGE shooter for the ps3 but i am also excited about haze too (another exclusive, for now).

It means the nine cells work together to create one big cluster**** traffic jam of facts.

That looks pretty sweet.
Might be just what one needs to play FPS games properly on consoles.

GL with it! I'm getting it on PC :wink:

Don't worry Epic Says they have made it so that it runs well on low end PC's as well. I think I'll get it on my crappy PC instead of the 360 for User created mods.

good point but i mean, it just doesn't feel right having a keyboard for games on a console, tho it sounds cool the idea..

looks cool, they shud add the PS button in the middle of the buttons on the mouse (triangle, square etc..)

It means that if they pull it off (and I'm confident they will or already have) that any game using the Unreal Engine 3 will run (to quote Borat) "Very, very nice!"

A lot of the third party game engines aren't coming close to harnessing the power of the Cell processor's SPUs, 7 highly parallel coprocessors. Once the multiplatform games get a hold of the optimized UE3 for their multiplatform games, we should see at minimum the end of the "sucky PS3 port" and quite possibly the beginning of the "okay, I see what they mean about the Cell now, OMGWTFBBQ!!!1!one1!!"

TOTALLY AGREE!

I love FPS games, but i find them much harder on console, except for Halo since it was made with the Joystick aiming in mind and very floaty.

Also, if the PS3 offers modded content to the game, then Roxors FTW! I think modding and consumer content creation is the MOST important think in gaming. most PC games offer that support to some extent, cause it will make the lifespan and work all the more benifficial.

I won't buy a PS3 for it since I like to beef up my PC constantly. Hopefully they'll improve the online play for UT, cause they definitely need to work on the PS3's online support.
