Ripten: Unreal Tournament 3 for the Xbox 360 is coming this Summer (June 30th in the States and unannounced in Europe) and it looks like loyal Microsoft fans will be getting five exclusive maps, two new characters, and split-screen action for two players. Unfortunately for 360 users, this bonus content doesn't really mean diddly.
Opinion is divided on this one for sure! Is motion blur good for gaming? Why do developers include it?
I hate any game that has motion blur and the first thing I do is switch off the motion blur in games. It just makes me nauseous.
I agree with Alex here, many implementations are terrible but when it is done right it improves the experience.

“In all seriousness though, I feel like DOOM’s success will be measured by how much the game has to offer. Graphically it’s looking spectacular, and I’m sure the latest multiplayer trailer caught all of our attention. Personally, the game is beginning to remind me of those late nights playing Unreal Tournament 3, which is totally a good thing. This, in addition to the promise of user-generated content, is making DOOM look like the best first-person shooter I’ve seen in ages.”
The campaign looks brilliant, like a true nostalgia trip to the original DOOM titles of old! The multiplayer equally looks like a trip down memory lane to fast-paced and frantic arena games a-la Quake, and honestly the MP REALLY makes me want to the get game at launch to capitalise on the hype. Problem is I'm not overly fussed with multiplayer typically in games, they can get weary after a while, and buying a game solely for its MP is risky - especially on console - as it's heavily dependant on the community!
Rock to my left, hard place to my right..
EDIT: On the MP note, does anyone know if it'll have bots available, similar to Unreal Tournament 3? I still give that a quick play time to time with bots (and all the mad mutators).
Its basically a "console" ahead, in terms of graphics, of another shooter called Homefront thats getting ready to release. LOL
Great selections as always and they are...
Final Fantasy
Metal Gear Solid
Super Smash Bros.
Crypt of the Necrodancer
Unreal Tournament
Advance Wars
Payday 2
hmm.
LoL PWN, exactly...
I'm just being completely sarcastic.
But... wait does that mean they wont do Mods for the 360? They shouldn't even bother releasing UT3. Just put those people on Gears 2. Why the hell would you buy a community driven game like UT3 and not be able to use the community!?
Seriously, why do people fight so much over this game? It wasn't all that good and it didn't sell all that good.
It wasn't a game that pushed consoles or anything.
So MS were not willing to be flexible, what a shame for 360 only gamers. Lose the Mods from UT and you lose its soul.
The thing is the ps3 version will get splitscreen aswell. If it's on 360 it will come to ps3, they already said awhile back they are planning to release it in a patch. So this just means that when this is released the patch will be finished and ready to download for free.
lol... it depends how you look at it....
You can get 5 extra maps; well balanced and made by the pros.... or you can have 2,000 maps made by pedro pica piedra...
hehe... no... I rather a car made by BMW than a car made by my uncle...
I have no problem with user created content... but let's not compare work done by proffesionals vs maps made by non-developers... comparing a map made by multiple developers and months of work vs john doe messing around...
hell! developers should take advantage of how xbox 360 haters feel and all their games should bring no maps and give them just mod tools...
damn... now... when it comes to think of it... Metal Gear online must suck... since it does not have a modding tool... and every other PS3 game that does not have modding...
and you xbox 360 haters should of prove EPIC that modding was so important by buying the game.. considering the fact that this game is the only one that has modding which you xbox 360 don't seem to shut up.. this game should sell more than any other game... including Gears... on day 1... but with so freaken low sells compares to many games... EPIC is being forced to released the game on the xbox 360 in order to make some sells... and simply stick the mods up their *@^#$# and release the game the way microsoft tell them to.. mod or no mods... if the PS3 would of break all record (specially for being the first console game ever to implement this) EPIC would force or send microsoft to hell if not allow to do mods...
Is it worth for microsoft to messup xbox live and profits over the inferior numbers of copies that UT sold on the PS3...
Hell... even Vega 1 sold more copies and introduced the face mapping.. and you don't see games adding face mapping...
