UT3 on Xbox 360, "coming along really nicely"

From the article:

''Responding to a thread on the official Epic Games forums regarding a rumored May release for the Xbox 360 version of Unreal Tournament III, Epic's Mark Rein responded that no release date has been set.''

[sonarus]

No doubt about that, but the real question is will it have mods?

[Breakfast]

It would suck if they didnt put in the mod support. The least they can do is put pre-existing mods on xbl or something....dont get any ideas MS, i meant for them to be free.

[InMyOpinion]

True. I have another worry too. Will there be room for it? The multiplayer FPS genre seems kinda saturated on the 360.

[sonarus]

actually not really. UT3 will still have its fans. UT3 won't appeal to all shooter lovers but the frantic gameplay will appeal to some. IMO UT3 is a stand out shooter. At least stand out enough to separate itself from the rest of the herd

[InMyOpinion]

I get your point, and I agree somewhat but think the biggest audience for games like UT3 are on the PC.

Gears of War 2 isn't that far away either. Not the same type of game, but similar in many ways and also a big multiplayer title. The next multiplayer FPS title I'll be picking up is Battlefield: Bad Company.

[boodybandit]

mouse and keyboard?

[EZCheez]

I honestly would not be playing this game anymore if it weren't for the mods. Every new great mod breathes some more life into this game.

[wageslave]

@1.1

Perhaps they can use XNA Community to distrubute mods.

The community could manage them, and they wouldnt need an extra "distribution method".

Nice and easy.

[Rikitatsu]

Epic better add a lots of extra content to it

[bootsielon]

Where? It won't fit on a DVD9. I remind you that a multiple disc solution wouldn't work on a multiplayer (mostly) game =(

[toughNAME]

It seems Epic didn't put much effort into this UT, they have much bigger things on their plate =)

[INehalemEXI]

Epic tried but where blocked by MS on the Mod issue.

[zen_fart]

cant wait to see a heavenly sword mod for UT3 on 360. uriko has nice tits

[RIPHDDVD]

Sorry but the 360 version doesn't have mod support.

[Harry190]

it's Nariko,not Uriko.

[sonarus]

hahaha so many errors in one comment.

[RIPHDDVD]

LOL what's even the point in porting UT3 for 360 when it doesn't even have mod support?

www.ut3mod.com

^ This website shows all the free stuff PS3 owners have been getting since the release of UT3 on PS3. We already have over a 100 maps, tons of character skins, tons of mutators, different game modes, and etc.

Not to mention our version shipped with over 40 maps.

Sorry but the content in the 360 version will be laughable in comparison to the PS3 version. It's too late for 360.

[tordavis]

Mod support isn't necessary. The game will be great on its own.

[INehalemEXI]

Not really I would not play a UT3 with out mod support thats just not right.

[zonetrooper5]

The last I heard MS said that mods would have to be put through the publishers server to test them, which is better but not as great as the PS3 version.

[RIPHDDVD]

LOL @ 360 version. Doesn't even have mod support. What a waste.

[lawman1108]

So why hold out hope for the 360 except for the fact it will look and run better on the 360.

Unreal Tournament III PS3
Midway 257,534 total sales

[Rick Astley]

The fact that the 360 version will NOT run better than the PS3 or PC versions / lacks TOO MUCH content makes it the inferior version by default.

[lodossrage]

yeah, cus those vgchart numbers you quote say so much right? Look and run better on the 360.....lawman, do you ever stop kidding yourself?

Talkin nonsense just because you're mad your system might not get mods. You can't be no more than like 14 years old at best.

Thank god THIS particular bot (Lawman) is constantly banished to the open zone. At least SOME of your fellow bots have SOME sense dude. You...not so much lol

[power of Green]

Looks like the PS3 fanboys are in here making excuses trying to suggest a loss *by default* fearing the 360 version's going to be better.

This is what it looks like to me when tons of PS3 fanboys flood in trolling this thread for a game thats been on their console for 5 months. Its old to PS3 fanboys yet they're acting rabidly like the game has not yet relesed on the PS3. Advances have been made to the engine don't expect the same product *by default*. Both URT3 and Gow 2 will help set new bars along with many other 360 titles.

[The gaming GOD]

Aren't we callin the kettle black mart?

Let's not get started on callin you out on all the ps3 new you tried to f@g up.

[Sir Ken Kutaragi 4]

...i wish it had Blu-ray and didn't get RRoD every 5 minutes"!!! ;-D

[Snukadaman]

"Worst case scenario is, we port them and we put them through certification and we put them up as downloadable content," Rein added."

[jvmca]

I've seen it played on the PS3 and looks boring with flat graphics. Gears of War is the way to go.

[Pain]

Ahahahahahahaha funny kids.

Oh Wait UT3 Is a PS3 Port to 360!? AHAHAHAHAHAHA !

Epic has to trim this game HUGE to Fit on dvd9 and work on a Inferior Console, but It kool Just take off your glasses and it wont look so bad.

And For the Bots You Kids Did READ that Mark Said Hands Down UT3 on PS3 LOOKS WAAY beter then GEARS on Xbox 2 and u can Dreasm all u want that he was LYING!>

Have fun with those Mods... oh! wait you cant! and most likely NEVER will unless M$ breaks its own Rules hahahahahahahaha!

[Snukadaman]

"Now The Bots Luv UT3 again!?"

considering sony purchased the exclusive xbox fans have not had a chance too hate or like this game...

"And For the Bots You Kids Did READ that Mark Said Hands Down UT3 on PS3 LOOKS WAAY beter then GEARS on Xbox 2 and u can Dreasm all u want that he was LYING!>"
its called kissing the ass of your targeted demographics...as in he said that too hype up you droids..which didnt quite work out considering the game is languishing at 250k after 16 weeks on the charts...

"Have fun with those Mods... oh! wait you cant! and most likely NEVER will unless M$ breaks its own Rules hahahahahahahaha!"
Looks like microsoft will be breaking those rules....
http://www.zimbio.com/Stree...

from what I have read from the ut3 message boards is that the game is still farked up...but coming on this website I have seen people saying theres no problems whatsoever with online which leads me to belive some people like to give the impression that all is well with the ps3 and their games...pretty sad when people do this to have more people to play online with.

[MrBii]

Isnt that what some of the delusional xbots claimed over a month ago?

[t-0_ot-]

It's funny you mention that... Seeing how pretty much ALL the games you ps3 fanboys "Swear" is coming out at a certain time, they did not.. and you are STILL wait.......................ing . =]

t-0_ot-

[DarkSniper]

The inferior version of Unreal Tournament III will arrive on XBox 360 sometime after Gears of War 2. Keep waiting Microslaves, keep waiting.

$niper

[lawman1108]

You PS3 douche bags know all too well how to do that. Snipe deez nutz

[ravinshield]

i need for lessons for waiting.huh while i wait i might watch some blue rays or maybe just spend my whole day on N4g.is that what i should ps girls

[t-0_ot-]

HAHAHA.. and your the one telling "xbots" to.... Wait? That's a joke........ right? hahaha

moron.

t-0_ot-

[AngryTypingGuy]

Wow, Dark Sniper really lobbed that one to hit out of the park. I was going to say the same thing, but you three beat me to it!

LOL, Dark Sniper, what a douche.

[Snukadaman]

Like how your waiting for the FULL version of gran turismo 4 instead of a blown up demo...or how about how your waiting for a single player component in warhawk or even socom...yeaaa you droids are the masters of waiting.

[radzy]

360 version will be better.
cant compare 512mb of video(xbox 360) card to 256mb video card(ps3).
much better textures will be on the 360 version.

[socomnick]

UT3 is not very good imo. I wish epic would just let us know about Gow 2 I want some footage.

[sonarus]

Yea gears is a greater game. However UT3 was their bread and butter franchise. They can't just leave it behind for GOW2. GOW is a fantastic game with inovations in game play and graphics i hope they have some more gameplay innovations in 2 as well

[Honolulu]

It's basically just the best twitch-shooter out there, lol :P

[Bathyj]

Sonarus

I like Gears, because I like 3rdPS's and cover systems. Gears and GRAW is why I got an Xbox to start with. But innovative? In gameplay and graphics? C'mon. The only innovative thing was the reload mechanism.

Gears is like Linsy Lohan. Its pretty to look at and you can have a lots of fun with it but there's nothing special or particularly intelligent there.

PS
I'm not picking on Gears, I did buy an unreliable console to play it. Here hoping G2 has abit more of those innovations to it.

[INehalemEXI]

UT3 has the whole cast of Gears its called All Cogs mod. It also has the 3rd person view mod called action cam. No cover system mod yet though.

UT3 has the best looking sci fi levels ever seen in a game IMO. Not to mention the best mapmakers have done some pretty maps too.
Gears has got the better single player Hands down though. UT3 single player is tacked on.

[ooop]

Its because your 360 is a closed network! That means you guysd get none of the sweet mods from ut3mod.com!

[wageslave]

Closed Network? What? Ever heard of XNA?

[wow4u]

Right. Because you know the contract details between Epic & MS.

EA (amoungst others) run their own servers for Xbox 360 games. Xbox LIVE is as flexible as it needs to be.

You dont know when, how or why things happen in the back-end for Xbox 360 games, so dont pretend you do.

Is http://www.forzamotorsports... or http://www.bungie.net/Onlin... look "closed" to you? Heck, you can write XNA games and use LIVE right now if you like.

You're FUD == fail.

[Vulcan Raven]

kick major a$$. The crysis guy is wicked.

[Odion]

i think i speak for some when i say who cares about this game anymore

[ooop]

Ill bet you wouldnt be saying that if it were better on the 360.

[poopsack]

i know i speak for many when i say who cares about what you care about.

[4D]

Sucks to be Sony for paying for exclusive rights to a game that PS3 owners didnt buy because they were too busy expanding their Blu-Ray portfolio.

http://vgchartz.com/games/g...

390,000 is pathetic.

Dont worry Epic. 360 owners will be glad to support your company with a million plus in sales. We had no problem waiting for a superior version both in terms of graphics and online gameplay. Plus our controller is much more suited for a fps anyways.

[mistertwoturbo]

Actually, the Unreal franchise was never about sales. It was about mod support in the community, which Epic Games takes a close look at to see what kind of talents are out there. Plus it gives them new ideas for any upcoming projects.

However I would agree that UT3 sales could have been better anyway. What killed it was the whole unknown release date, plus no advertisements AT ALL, and being overshadowed by many other games in november.

[Spydr07]

I love how 360 fanboys act as if all games sell MILLIONS on their console. Wasn't Blue Dragon created by some of the masterminds behind FF games and it didn't even sell 500,000 copies. If I had the ignorant mentality that some people seem to, (obviously not implying you at all) I could say if it isn't a westernized game, it won't sell on the 360.

I could even support that by looking at all of the blockbuster titles in the XBOX library. What game has hit 4 million for MS that wasn't a shooter? Since you like VGchartz, GTA: San Andreas sold what, 2.22 million on XBOX and 15.4 million on PS2...I bet it would have sold more if it was a shooter. Just look up the top 20 highest selling games and MS doesn't see any light. However, if you check by genre, they do have the highest selling FPS of all time: http://en.wikipedia.org/wik... But you know, I'd only be saying crap like that if I was ignorant.

**If you don't like the Blue Dragon example, go take a look at your top twenty highest rated games and tell me which one hits four million and wasn't a shooter. An ignorant person would say, "Enjoy developing shooters for the MS, that's all XBOX owners will really buy."

[mesh1]

THIS IS THE WORST UT OF THE SERIES ULL NOTICE THIS GAME HAS VANISHED LIKE IT WAS NEVER REALESED NO 1 is playing this game on the pc /ps3 cause it a really bad game i played it on pc and was amazed how unfinished this game seemed i will never by it hwy wud it rainbow six veags is a bettter game i wont compare it to gesrs /halo3/cod4 they are on a defferentleague to ut3

[wow4u]

"Actually, the Unreal franchise was never about sales. It was about mod support in the community, which Epic Games takes a close look at to see what kind of talents are out there."

Is there _any_ attachment to reality here? 390,000 sales is _TERRIBLE_. Assuming $60 per sale, thats less than $25 Million.

After retailers, licenses, publishers, advertising -- how much of that do you think goes to support ongoing development?

If Epic doesnt bring this game to the core gamer market (Xbox 360), they're going to loose money on UT3.

All your nonsense about what "UT3 is 'about'" (in your mind) is nonsense if Epic doenst _sell_ any copies of UT3.

[FirstknighT]

I have yet to see a mod worth even trying. Yeah the character mods are cool but pretty much useless. I wonder if anybody is trying to mod entire games with map design and actually be good. Than I'll be jealous.

But I prefer to see footage of GOW2 than UT3.

[Slayer OP]

Here are the good mods

About 62 maps.

Action cam (changes the games to 3rd person Gears like camers
)

Jetpack (you can fly)

Increaced gore

Freeze ray (weapon mod)

All over deathmatch (makes all maps accessable for deathmatch)

Unlimited ammo (comes in a mutator pack)

And of course the character mods.

There is a lot more at ut3mod.com. If you havent got any mods yet and you have this game I would suggest going there because it really changes the game experience.

[LJWooly]

If you're buying UT3 for the mods... Microsoft's Live policy's going to prevent mods from seeing the light of day on 360, unfortunately.

[mistertwoturbo]

Well seeing as how you don't have a PS3, you wouldn't have the slightest clue on any mods that are out. You won't ever get to play them. You only look at a few screenshots on the web and think to yourself, they're not worth playing. But how would you know? You never played it. And don't give me the whole "Oh well I played it at my friend's house and it sucks" routine. Tired of hearing that.

And you'd be blind to see that having FREE mods is an excellent thing to have. Just because microsoft won't allow it, doesn't mean it sucks. Grow up.

[wageslave]

"If you're buying UT3 for the mods... Microsoft's Live policy's going to prevent mods from seeing the light of day on 360, unfortunately. "

And you know this _how_? You know what MSFT's contracts with Publishers/Developers are?

Please stop talking out your arse.

[ichimaru]

GIMME MY MODS!!! Stop censoring every thing Microsoft!!!

[wageslave]

XNA. XNA Community. Halo 3's Forge. Foraz 2 ( http://www.forzamotorsport....

You're characterization of Microsoft's relationship to User Generated Content is vastly inaccurate.

UT3 is the _only_ avenue for UGC on PS3.

Please dont be so darn foolish.

[Clubptxxx]

You're seriously trying to compare XNA Creators Studio/Forge/Forza 2 to Open system Mod Support? Are you seriously that Blind?? Buy a clue man. You cannot make your own maps in Halo 3, only slightly different variations of them. XNA Creators Studio you need to pay for. And I don't even know why you threw Forza 2 in there, maybe to make me laugh harder?

I'd also tell you to respond but wait, Have you run out of bubbles?! OH NOES!! Guess you can't make horrible comparisons on the internetz nao. Think about what you say next time.

[wow4u]

There are all different kinds of User Generated Content. And, right now, there are many venues for UGC game content on Xbox 360.

There is only UT3 mods on PS3. Sure, they are different.

But we dont know what method of mod distribution will come on Xbox 360. I dont know. You dont know.

[4D]

Unlike you Blu-Ray movie lovers we 360 owners will actually buy this game with it's enhanced graphics and superior integrated online play. I hear Alvin and the Chipmunks just released on Blu-Ray. Better go snatch it up since you have no games worth buying. Hey I got 7 ignores and 1 bubble taken away from the SDF on this site in the past week. You f@ggots are slipping.

WAIT B3YOND for 4D B!tches.

[lodossrage]

suuuure ya do :)

those questionable "enhanced graphics" go real well with a nice helping of NO mods :)

[HarryEtTubMan]

I've been playing this alot today. You bots are lucky your at least getting sloppy seconds. Its a great game.

^^^^^ HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAAH Disguised 8th account of Power of Green having another meltdown. Bro I've already been playing this 4 months. Its AWESOME on PS3 and I've been owning noobs all day while talking crap. You console is losing. Its half the price of PS3 ans literally FLOPPING in sales. No one cares what u think. Soon PSN will be as good or posssibly better tahn Xbox Live FOR FREE.

You have and will lose.

[Spike47]

you probably don't have a ps3 or UT3. My cousin has tried most of the mods provided, he saids it's "okay".

but between the two versions the ps3 version is superiror.

That comment may be true, as an opinion, but I'm sure there is alil bit of fanboysim sinide it aswell,

jealous are we?

[jaja1434]

I'm assuming the two versions your referring to are the 360/PS3. If that's the case then your "alil" bit of fanboy as you say is more than a little since your comparing a game that is out to one you've never played. In which case, you can not say which is better than the other.

[ichimaru]

between PC AND PS3, sony's version is superior? are you well?

anyway, will there be keyboard and mouse support

[timmyrulz]

And you know exactly what it feels like to have inferior games and having to wait all of the time, i think i speak for alot of 360 owners that although this game could be fun, i cant see it topping the sales charts of live play time

[LightningPS3]

This game is more of a waste of fanboy breath than anything else.

look at the sales, it wasn't an impact game for any console.

[HydroBoy]

it would only be a waste of money if you get it for 360 since 360 wont be getting the most valuable part of the game which is MODs . .

[tudors]

Shouldn't bother with GTA5.

[devilhunterx]

GTA5?

[wow4u]

"360 wont be getting the most valuable part of the game which is MODs"

And you know this how?

[lodossrage]

I know epic was having trouble with mircosoft about that. But I hadn't seen any update on that situation. So am I to assume it is a definite that there will be no mods?

If it doesn't get these mods then that sucks

I'm sorry, but if you think that a superior version will be the one WITHOUT mods then you are just kidding yourselves. How a version of ANYTHING with less content than another could be considered superior is ridiculous.

But as I said before, there hasn't been and definite news on ut for 360 not having mods (too my knowledge). I already have the ps3 version and still LOVING it. And yes the mods with characters, maps, weapons, abilities, etc DO add PLENTY to the game which is already good in itself.

360 owners just keep your fingers crossed. It's not like the game is out yet so mods might not be ruled out just yet. It still might have been in their best interest to focus everything on gears of war 2 though.

[zen_fart]

i will eat a used pair of knickers if microsoft allows mouse and keyboard support.

[heyheyhey]

no mods= no magic

there's no way around it

i can smell the "bu..bu...dey improoved da engin LOLOLOL" BS coming

@MART, or POG or whatever they call you these days (yes i know your not POG, so dont call me a fandroid for doing so)

ok fine, we'll see- lets make it interesting to

if UT3 gets mods on the 360- i have to spend a whole day posting pro-360 BS, if it doesnt- you have to do the opposite

[TheMART]

so how are you so sure no mods will be there?

The game isn't here yet and Epic had some constructive talking with Microsoft.

So don't bet all your money on it, they might have made it possible in a certain way. Just wait untill the 360 version is out and then we'll compare again

[lodossrage]

Let's wait and see.

But I will be honest, the fact that they haven't said anything on the mod situation as of late it doesnt bode all that well

And yes, you are pog dude

http://www.n4g.com/ViewComI...

See the SAME IP, See the same emails for both your names (mart and pog)?

[whateveryousay]

no way you blew up that xbots spot like that.

Hard evidence on someone have no life

bubbles lodoss for the humor.

[TheMART]

LOL @ lodosrage

GO check up that IP in that JPG dude. Just DO it. Its a Mexican one.

I am living in The Netherlands dork. Mods can check my IP. POG is from the USA or something like that. That JPG is fake, someone on another site used the exact same names, a Mexican paco found it funny to get lies into the world.

And Sony droids are too stupid to look further then just a number...

[t-0_ot-]

lodossrage - Are you serious? Do you like have that saved on your computer somewhere? Do you have that in your "favorites?" I'm not saying he's not POG and I'm not saying he is, but do you know how EASY it is to photoshop something like that?

[power of Green]

Better yet ask yourself why are the Sony fanboys only useing this *supposed proof* just for harassment and not report it to the mods/admins then ask yourself why would a site made up of 95% PS3 fanboys fail to attempt to get the two most hated 360 supporters banned for life?. lol Why are wee still here?. The mods know better thats why this has been floating around for weeks its not the first time PS3 fanboys have done this to me(3rd time).

[lodossrage]

Gee, I wonder why you never said that when you were first bagged lol

I know the answer, do YOU :)

[TurdStationPee]

"i can smell the "bu..bu...dey improoved da engin LOLOLOL" BS coming "

---Yeah, cuz the fact that it will look, control, and run better than your version is meaningless. Definitely. Especially since the PS3rd version barely sold 200,000 units. LMAO.

FLOP.

[Snukadaman]

I will wait for a moderator at n4g before I believe someone who can manufacture a nickname on his website and pull up the moderators page...I wont defend pog or the mart because sometimes they do go overboard with their fanaticism that rivals nasim..but when any moron can make a website and put someones name on their website its only obvious its manufactured.

[heyheyhey]

ahhh so you'll get some fancier water effects and better shadows?

rejoice!!!!

seriously, if the mods dont come through for the 360 version, it will seriously lack compared to the PS3 version- more realistic looking water or not

besides, Epic might release a patch to add the engine upgrades to the PS3 version- and then you'll cry like a little girl

[jackdoe]

I'd say June-July release would probably be likely candidates, although if Epic pushed, they may be able to get a late May release.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

They need to push off Haze...just in case.

[DJ]

PS3 owners get to have a Gears of War style camera, hundreds of free maps, and even characters that don't belong on the console, i.e. Master Chief. How badass would it be to play as Kratos or Solid Snake on the 360 version?

[predator]

frankly i dont give a rats @ss about mods, im enjoying it on PS3 and when it comes out for the 360 ill get it then cos LIVE is so much better .

[Breakfast]

Yea but by the time this game comes out, you'll already have home and xmb. Me basing this on all three of them arriving in summer.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

If they can do it without having LAG...then you win.

I will give my PS3 to one of you 360 fanboys if EPIC can somehow make Live not suck and create a LAGless network. No, I don't want a bunch of talk about bandwidth and crap like that. That is a PC-only discussion.

Seriously...

Bring it on.

[potenquatro]

LIVE does not lag,but epic games do.atleast for me.i avarege a 50-70(dods,tf2) ping. but on ut games i avarege 80-120 ping.gears lagged more than most too.but if ur lagging with LIVE,u need a better conection and playing on pc or ps3 won't make the lag go away.regardless of it being p2p or with a dedicated server,if u lag its ur isp. bandwidth is not a pc only discussion.everything that conects to the internet,pc,ps3,xbox,wii can only go as fast as the conection allows it.

ps:not trying to bring it,just making it clear lol.

[AllroundGamer]

if there will be mods and DLC in the future, i am sure MS will make people pay for it...

[t-0_ot-]

Not if it's user created..

[power of Green]

LOL. The mods have surely seen that and yet we're still here, I don't call PS3 fanboys droids. lol

You spread that slander-ish fud around defying all logic as if the devs are too stupid to figure out how to ban us from the site because some how you know better than the Admins or that this lie has been only spread around by PS3 fanboys without one single PS3 fanboy trying to get the most hated 360 supporters banned. lol

This site is made up of hundreds of PS3 fanboys not one took that info you have to the admins? why are we still here?.

That link you have only proves how PS3 fanboys help Sony in every sense, it only proves the extreme out of control mental cases PS3 fanboys are.

[lodossrage]

Folks the translation for that long winded speech is as follows:

"blah blah...bla bla blah... blah bl bl blah. blah blah blah"

Thanks for your time :)

Let's see, since its "made up" of hundreds of ps3 fanboys now. It's safe to assume it was made of of hundreds of 360 fanboys last year and the year before correct? :)

[whateveryousay]

BINGO!

yup, it's easy to forget last year for some lol

[The gaming GOD]

Let's not get started on the nonsense YOU especially kept spout all last year.

Give it a rest Power of green or Mart or whatever else bullsh!t you call your self and stop being a f@ggot

[power of Green]

Not here to fight you kid, who cares about last year? whats that have to do with impersonaters?. Your child-like response is irrelevant has nothing to do with discrimination and malice.

A Chimp can be tought that if you have more than one account those accounts will be band.

Foaming at the mouth rabid is personally attacking 360 fans in 360 threads. Trolling at its finest.

[The gaming GOD]

At least I don't have to make multiple accounts to talk smack on people's blogs.

And you talk about stuff not being on topic? How many times have you brought your sh!tty presence to a ps3 topic that had ZERO to do with 360 just to start crap?

Ladies and Gentleman, THIS is how a xbot reacts when they are on the receiving end. LOL

[Angelitos]

The game didnt sell that well ,because people dont care for timed exclusives. Epic needs to stop being 360 biased, and make a saequal forever exclusively for PS3, and then it will be sold.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Even if they released GOWII as a PS3 exclusive...I'm not so sure it would sell that well...at least compared to MGS4, GTAIV, Resistance 2, and (maybe, but don't quote me on this) Killzone 2.

It wouldn't have a prayer.

[wow4u]

@leon.

Gears of War has a higher metacritic score than GTAIII and MGS3. Resistence and KZ?

Come-on now. Gears of War won many game of the year awards. It outclasses UT3 as well.

Gears of War 2, if anything like the first title, will outclass every title you mentioned.

Yes, I'm including MGS.

Goto metacritic yourself.

[Spydr07]

Gears' metacritic score is a 94. By the way, GTAIII got a 97, MGS3 Subsistence got a 94. http://www.metacritic.com/g...

Did you notice that GTAIII's score (and sales) is higher than Gears'? Did you notice that MGS3 Subsistence received the same score? If it were me saying something like that, I'd actually check metacritic first so I knew the information was accurate. It does wonders for your credibility.

[captainpwn]

had mods available on the PS Store. Its such a pain in the @ss downloading mods, transferring them and then realizing they aren't really that good. The openness of mods in PS3 UT3 is phenomenal, but I wish there was a place on the Playstation Store where the best/highest rated mods were available for download directly from the PS3.

[shysun]

Go to the PS store right now, 3 new mods are there for free.

the Open Zone should be renamed in "Attention Whore Zone" :D and POG would be the admin :D:D

Unreal has it followers but i never understood why Sony fans triumphantly pointed out how great it was having this come to their machine first - it's not a big name outside PC and i wouldn't be suprised to see this perform badly come 360.

Perfectly good game but i'm wondering if Epic wished they had released this first on 360 as well

[Spydr07]

I honestly don't think it would have mattered. I think you hit the nail on the head in that UT is more of a PC game. It has its fans but hasn't really done anything to draw more people to the game. It has a cult following...unfortunately, most of those people already play it on the PC.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

They said MODS would only be on the PS3 version, as far as consoles go. Licensing issues would prevent them from doing it on the 360.

I do hope, however, that they get that worked out.

Having Samus vs. Master Cheif vs. Snake will be cool once that guy finishes cooking Snake for the PS3. I hope everyone gets to enjoy it, no matter how badly they've screwed themselves over...

*smile*

[TheMART]

Well well

Lets go back to UT3

I bet the graphics engine is updated again and the 360 will have the best looking and finest running version there.

For the mods I bet there is a solution. So what about that PS3 fans... The 360 gets the best UT3 version then, it'll sell a lot more then the PS3 version did, in the end Epic will love the 360 because of another main seller and Gears 2 megasales upcoming at the end of 2008.

First Epic announced Unreal Engine 4 only in development for the consoles, PC support no more. Because of the bad UT3 sales on the PC. Next step they'll cut PS3 support?

[TurdStationPee]

Yup. PS3 is like the PC market: No one buys games on it. PC is for porno, and PS3 is for movies. End of story.

Droids got owned.

[Kaz Hirai]

Enjoy the wait, you Xbot CRETINS!

MWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!

[TurdStationPee]

Everyone knows UE3 looks and runs better on 360--it was designed for 360. It was literally created for Gears--a 360 game, stupid n00bs. Of course UT3 will look and run better than the sh1tty PS3 port. I mean, why has it only sold 257,534 units? LMFAO. PS3 is a joke. It's a movie player. No one buys games on it. But why would I care? Gears destroys any UT game, hands down. No competition. And that's another exclusive you droids will never see. SUCKERS!!!!!!! HAHahaHAHahAH

Owned.

[ElementX]

Even with mod support on PS3, UT3 isn't selling well. I bought it for PS3 when I had one (another coming in June, the MGS bundle) but I only played UT3 a few times. I've played previous UT games on PC but they're all the same. The weapons are always the same and there's nothing unique about UT3 except better graphics and those things you can pilot.

[Clinton514]

Care to tell us the sales stats without pulling up bogus sites like VGCharts?

If not, leave it be.

[Says you]

You guys have to lie to yourselves everyday by looking in the mirror and I'm talking about you XBox 360 fans and saying my system is "superior" oh yeah then how come everything on that piece of historic system has more outdated features on it I mean you want to know whats really superior the console that is actually working and not some cover up to make you think you guys have a system that is superior which you don't have! your system was already oudated when the system that is working first came out is superior to the one that you moronic fools keep throwing up about.

[ScottEFresh]

No mod support. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[shysun]

Dont worry they'll just COD4 these guys to death. Theres like 100 mod maps out there......200$ should cover it. ;)

[RAM MAGNUMS]

I'm a huge ut3 fan, I think alot of you people are are either lying about this game or really trying to promote a dying console! First of all this game is the fps from hell. Epic encourages mods for unreal which is why its main characters are generic. This game is underground, its got mods being cooked and its great! I actually am playing halo 4 on ut3. For anyone that has played halo in the past, I just want you to know I have all its features like regenerating shields, halo jump, etc. Playing with masterchief feels great. I download straight to my ps3 and usb 2 gig stick in 30 seconds. So people who say downloading mods are hard to do- please see ut3 patch description. It states this fact. I don't understand how some of you people love halo, bioshock and mass effect when unreal tournament has it all in 1 game? You can customize your controller easy and if you still suck plug in the mouse and keyboard. I can see that some gamers just don't have the attention span to optimize your experience. You are what is called a default gamer. Someone who doesnt view their options and play games like a movie critic. Who needs you online anyway all you guys are just talk. Unreal is underated and now I know why. You guys don't have a clue of what to do. Wow

[sonyfanonly]

MEH......................

[Dnarbeis]

Good to know!

[-SIXAXIS-]

It's going to be stupid. No mouse/keyboard support, no mods, no thank you. I'll stick with the PS3 version.

[ROCCOZILLA]

xbox will never have a game like UT3 cause it will never have mod support.and we have the Geow characters also halos master chief so we dont need any xbox games at all.ONLINE MADNESS!!

[ROCCOZILLA]

im gonna be hosting tonight with 4 mods!!action cam,gibilisous.freeze ray and color mod.its gonna be another crazy night.go get some new characters on UT3MOD.com,they have guys from neverwinter nights2,rats and rabbits.its SICK!ONLINE INSANITY!!!

[bootsielon]

Especially against too much competition on FPS 360. The only thing that could save the game is adding extra content, but for a multiplayer game a multiple disc solution wouldn't work. I recommend epic to price the game at 20 or 40 dollars and release tons of free content from day one in order to save this game from failure. Oh, and creative achievements wouldn't hurt either.

[midgard229]

and 360 owners complain wen it takes long for ps3 to get a port, atleast the ps3 ports have more stuff. this game is taking almost a year longer to take stuff out lol.

besides without mods this game is useless, epic already said it wont support mods. second, everyone will be to busy with gears 2 anyway

[tomfoolery]

getting nervous....................... .............you should be.

The ps3.............a movie player........................ ................JUST WOW! LOL

[shysun]

I bought this game day one, I didn't really understand the big fuss over it, so I stopped playing. Last week I decided to give it another chance. Damn is this game good. They just released an upgrade to the game with about 3 new maps(free on PSN). There are so many maps now I dont know how many I have, maybe about 45 or so (mods included). It's a great game for you guys, it just sucks that you wont have free mods. Yeahyeahyeah, they might pick the best 4 and charge you for them...lol..... but its nothing like good'ol free PC to PS3 mods! ENJOY

[trolling bast3rd]

it cant run a game like this, it can only run games like gaylo and... everything else on the 360 is crap and gay.

[Spydr07]

Isn't the open zone, that way? ------->

[SuperSaiyan4]

I mean on one hand you got all the PS3 owners saying 'We dont need GTA 4 exclusive content' then you got all the PS3 owners making jokes about the issues of the 360 version of UT3 not having mods or user created mods etc...

So whats the deal?

[thehitman]

DLC u pay for Mods you get freely and can be what ever you want it to be.

Also there is something else the 360 may be lacking in UT3 I believe they said that they will only have like 15maps in 360 version I know it was no more than 20 vaguely remember how little they said they could fit. They might have to put the extra maps as DLC.

[mistertwoturbo]

Yes, and MODS are made by the community and are FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

If GTAIV's episodic content was FREEEEEEEEEEEEE, then I'm pretty sure more and more people will buy a 360 just for that. But knowing that the video game industry is also a business, you bet your damn shiniest penny that the exclusive DLC will cost $$$.

[HydroBoy]

but we really dont need GTA4 ''exclusive content'' .. Unreal Tournament games have been known for their mods from PC .. its a part of the game . .. as for GTA4 personally i wont be buyin the additional content, ill be busy playin online or playin other games ..the 50 hours of single player that comes with the game is enough for me ( and i probably wont finish it )

[sleepbox]

All these comments over a game that hasn't yet sold worth a crap and certainly 360 owners saw how Epic shunned them with this release. I realize I'm adding to the fire but I would not buy this product...no way, no how. I may have impulse purchased it when it was first released if it were released on the 360 then but definately not now.

Your fault Epic.

[macsto]

doesnt really matter, this game flopped on ps3

[DFresh]

Even though the game was alright on the PS3 it won't really be that much better.
The reason I say that is because when you heard about Epic talking about the flaws of making a 360 version he made it clear it wouldn't live up to the PS3/PC Versions.

Reasons:
1.) No Mod Support
2.) No enough disc space for extra content.
3.) XBL doesn't have that many dedicated servers to run online and online play really made Unreal Tournament what it is today.

Even though the graphics will look some what similar to the PS3 Version it still won't have the following content I just said.

As someone who own s this game I recommend that you do not buy this game.

Epic said there was going to be a story mode for this game and there wasn't it was just a tutorial for online.

Game play is fun.

The character voices and dialogue were really off key.

If you like online this is the game for you but if you want a story don't expect it to come from this game.

Your better off sticking to Call of Duty 4 or Gears of War than you are with this game.

If you still want it anyways just get the game used.

I had the choice of picking between this game and COD4 for my PS3 and like a dumb ass I should of picked COD4.

[Hellsvacancy]

well not all of it, the bit with COD4 i was, anyways, in a months time every1 will b playin GTAIV multiplayer either on the xbox or ps3, ut3 was ok but thats about it, if your new 2 unreal youll like it 4 a while but if u played it in the past b4 like me, its nothin new...

[FrostyMelon]

Not sure why folks are making a big deal about the mods on the console. I've been playing on the PS3, and it's pretty rare folks use them in the GP area. The only reason I do is because if games w/friends, and it's only a couple of maps.

[Lord Vader]

360 Owners = don't worry about the mods, this game sucks, IMHO. It was fun for about a week after it came out, but all it is is the same old UT with updated graphics. MP is all it offers & it doesnt compare to COD4, Halo, or Gears of War.

Do your self a favor & save your $$$ for a better game. I have always found the UT games to be as craptastic as the franchise's sales...

[zonetrooper5]

Actually both XBL and PSN support P2P and servers, EA has servers for its games on both XBL and PSN, so does the game Frontlines Fuels of War.

[RAM MAGNUMS]

this game is awesome. I loved halo for what its worth but unreal is for real. This is competitive shooting at its finest. I love all the hype that unreal is getting now that mods are created. This is a game you will be playing for years. With all the options and variety it has the cult following will grow. If there is 1 thing I would like added to unreal it would be a patch for a slow walk for gamers who use the dualshock. I think a slow walk would balance the precise shooting from mouse & keyboard users. I love this game really!

[Sez]

whats funny is that these sonyfanboys claim that UT3 is inferior on the 360 because of the mods. but the ps3 version of GTA4 doesn't get exclusive DLC like the 360 version. does that mean that the 360 version is better. awaiting excuses from sonyfanboys.
