High Moon's O'Connor Talks Unreal Engine 3 PS3 Issues , Gears of War

As part of an in-depth new Gamasutra interview, High Moon VP Paul O'Connor (The Bourne Conspiracy) has been discussing Unreal Engine on PlayStation 3 and Gears Of War's impressive behind-the-scenes structure.

Vivendi-owned High Moon, which previously worked on Darkwatch, are currently preparing the Unreal Engine 3-utilizing action title The Bourne Conspiracy for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

So, when asked: "Do you have anything to say about the development process on doing multiplatform games?", O'Connor explained of the development process:

"We needed a lot of support on Unreal to make it run on the PlayStation 3. We got caught in the same crunch as everybody else when [Epic] finalized Gears [Of War], so that definitely slowed down the PS3 support at the time.

But, that being said, the guys have done extraordinary work with the PS3, and it's just about ready to pipeline."
