Unreal Tournament 3

Unreal Tournament 3 gone gold…for the US

Unreal Tournament 3 has now officially been approved by SCEA and has now gone gold - meaning it will (hopefully) be out this year for Playstation 3… in the US. Localization issues such as adding new languages and such to the European version means it will probably be released Early 2008, according to Mark Rein. Don’t forget, if you just can’t wait PS3 is fully region free so you can always import!

Unreal Tournament 3 interview: PS3 love, Xbox 360 later

Epic Games Vice President Mark Rein has been interviewed by Eurogamer on Ureal Tournament 3 for Playstation 3. Mark explains how Playstation 3 is a primary choice over the Xbox 360 at the moment because of it’s open network so users can share maps and mods. During the course of the interview Mark explains why UT3 might not make it to Playstation 3 this year in Europe.

Eurogamer: First things first, are we going to see the PS3 version this year? And what’s happening with the 360 version?

Mark Rein: The 360 version’s not till next year anyway, so all I can say is we’re still hoping for the PS3 version to be released this year. Europe’s a problem because the certification process in Europe takes longer. They’re testing all these different languages in all these different countries, so I doubt it’ll be released this year in Europe. But I don’t know. We’ll have to cross our fingers and wait and see.

That’s such a terrible, non-commital answer [laughs]. But that’s how it is! Sorry.”
