With lots of new maps, new game modes, new weapons and deployables, tons of technical upgrades, and the screen-filling beasts themselves, you'd expect to pay at least something for all of this. But Epic is giving it away for free. And anything free these days is greatly appreciated".
Epic Games has great news for mod developers: Custom sounds can now be imported for Unreal Tournament 3 mods for PLAYSTATION3 using Epic Games' ATRAC3 mod tools, which are free of charge and available now.
Previously, custom sounds for Unreal Tournament 3 mods have only been supported for PC. Thanks to cooperation with Sony, Epic Games is able to offer its QA-tested and approved PS3 sound conversion tools to mod authors.
What this means is that...
It would be nice of this game had offline Co-Op, that way this would come in handy with my cousin and I playing.
TGSI
The Haunted and PlanetStorm would be an awesome score. There's alot of great mods for UT3 and any coming to the PS3 would be a welcome addition.
Examiner: A trend in gaming that has caught on lately is user generated content. Levels, designs, and even characters created by players are shareable for everyone to take advantage of. User created content not only extends the replay value of a game, but it also gives players a creative outlet while allowing them to share their work with the rest of the world.
Unreal Tournament is a series that has been around since 1999 on the PC, 2000 on the PlayStation 2 and 2001 on the Dreamcast. I remember losing hours of my time to this game with a bunch of friends huddled around the television. Being deemed "Godlike" with everyone around to see how skilled you are is so satisfying.
This popular series finally made its way over to the PlayStation 3 back in December of 2007 in the form of Unreal Tournament III (3), one of the few games that came out on the system before releasing on the Xbox 360. While it was a good game when it released and had mod and online support, there was no splitscreen and trophies were not even a consideration at the time. If I had reviewed it when it first came out, I'd have given it a 3/5. But with the recent Titan/2.0 patch and DLC content, this game is seeing a lot more playtime on my PlayStation 3.
The Titan Pack makes this a lot more enjoyable now, still not the best in the UT series (UT2K4 for me) its still a great blast to jump in on.
I sort of agree, but then I didn't play UT2K4 nearly as much as I've played UT3. They're both extremely fun though.
Really looking forward to this. UT3 was too underrated for its own good. But this update should help boost it's sales again.
Wonder why nobody is really comenting on how the split screen actually runs in these previews?
Killzone 2, Street Fighter 4, Mad World, and now this patch that came outta nowhere!
All I need now is a time freezing machine.
especially for all the feebies.
Now a FPS Gears on Ps3, on steroids +++.
