Rein admits Europe may not see UT3 for PS3 this year

Epic Games' Mark Rein says that he hopes Unreal Tournament 3 will be released on PlayStation 3 this year but he doesn't think it will make Europe until 2008. "Right now we're very close to a release candidate, and we should have it finished by the end of this week," said Rein. "Then we send it off and it's just a matter of what happens from there. We think there's a very solid shot we'll get out this year - I don't know about Europe. Europe's a problem because the certification process in Europe takes longer."

1.1 - No, Europe screws itself.

Change the long certification process and you might get games at the same time as the rest of the world.

@ Ercsyou

Kind of strange then. XBOX 360 games are released about on the same time for Europe as in the USA. And if they're after that, it's only a few days or max a week or so.

But PS3 stuff is delayed months. PS3 itself: USA nov. 2006, EUrope March 2007. Games the same, now we see UT3, before Christmas in USA, somewhere in 2008 EUrope. It's stupid.

4.1 - Not rating system

Mark Rein talked about how in Europe the review process takes longer because of all the languages. We just have English in the U.S. so it's one language to review and approve. Maybe Europe should decide on one language. At least for games.

We have a rating system also here, sometimes it can cause a delay. But the language thing isn't realy substanstial; we all play them in English.

No but changing European to EuroPEON is an insult so it could be a 'funny' joke, look up PEON on wikipedia if you want. More likely a spelling mistake.

I'm importing it anyway. So its not that big of an issue

Still mart how are we getting screwed over any more? We very rarely get games first anyway. Or are you just trying to get europeans to get angry again, for no reason other than what i can think of is your just upset that the 360 version of this game isn't coming out any time soon

i'm pretty sure we can all deduct that the US will get it in december, but europe will get it next year. (duh)

it does suck that Europe gets shafted again, but you can always import it. the miracles of region free encoding (unless epic is a poopy and decides to lock it..)

i believe they went after it because the item they were selling said "US only" or "japan only" and they were selling it everywhere, and thus violating some rule.

i don't believe that UT3 has a US only sticker on it..

Because this game is an experience nobody should miss. It's a shame that the 360 version isn't being released with the PS3 version because I want this game to sell as many copies as possible!

10.1 - All PS3 games are region free

I assume you only said this because of the Uncharted demo problem. That was a demo. I doubt that's going to happen with finished games. If it was a problem Sony would have stuck with the old way of having region games that can't play on other region consoles.

Are you sure about getting GT before us? I don't know about that one. There hasn't been any kind of release date given yet. That's one game I see either released at the same time for the two territories or coming to the U.S. before Europe. Do you have a link to that release date?

I don't know bro. I think GT 1 - 4 was released in Japan/Hong kong first, then released in America a few months later, and then Europe. Please correct me if I'm wrong. But I think it went like this.

GT1: US April 98 - Europe May, 98
GT2: US Dec 99 - Europe Jan 00
GT3: US July 10, 01 - Europe July 20, 01
GT4: US Feb 05 - Europe Mar 05

EU releases of PS3 games comes always late, just because they have to find out if it is really worth releasing the titles in EU due the lack of PS3 market. PS3 has officially failed in EU.
