Epic's Mark Rein on PS3 UT3 Mods & Issues, Fixes Penny Arcade's Wagon

"The PS3 version didn't actually support mods at launch, and even now that they are patching in their campaign promises"

Rain: That is incorrect. The PS3 version of UT3 supports mods right out of the box. The Unreal Editor that ships with the PC version requires an update (which is hopefully coming very soon) to allow end-users be able to "cook" mods into the proper format required for the PS3. This functionality requires us to release some code provided by Sony and we're working through the licensing paperwork with them now. In the mean time we've picked a few cool UT3 mods off the internet, cooked them ourselves (with the same tools we expect to release to end-users shortly) and released them back to the internet in the proper format. We started with a single map but we're going to release a few more maps, a mutator and a new gametype later today. These are all user-created mods - all we're doing is converting them into the PS3 format. We're working on some cool stuff of our own to release down the road as well.
