Here's some extremely promising new footage of Unreal Tournament 3, Epic Studios' deathmatch-focused shooter for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. And it's looking like a game that's capable of standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the best of the UT series. It stars gutsy explosions, crinkly lasers, flashy colors and, crucially, a phenomenal sense of speed with the smoothness to please those twitchy, headshot-hunting triggerfingers. Massive environments, dirty with detail, and lots of chunky vehicles ... » Read More

Beyond Unreal cracked open the most recent issue of OXM and discovered that Unreal Tournament 3 will ship with a good 3-4 dozen multiplayer maps.

Aside from the gameplay shown in the video, it offered a few details about the game. It was said that the original idea was to make gigantic maps utilizing UE3's streaming technology for up to 64 players at once. They decided that it didn't feel like a UT game and went back to improving the original formula. Each map starts out as a basic BSP layout and is play tested until they think it is fun and then it is handed over to have static meshes and the rest of the artistic assets created. There will be 3 to 4 dozen multiplayer maps in the retail version of the game. The single player portion will have even more maps than multiplayer.

The rumored difficulty in designing games for the Playstation 3 leads us to believe that adjusting things in Unreal Tournament 3 for the more facile 360 should be a piece of cake for the UE3 brainiacs. Although words on the street can be wrong, Teamxbox are going to go with the "word" for now that Unreal Tournament 3 for the PS3 will mirror Unreal Tournament 3 for the Xbox 360.

With that said, and with the lack of a playable Unreal Tournament 3 for the Xbox 360 floating about, Teamxbox took the time to visit our competition's booth at GDC. Sony's booth was bustling with activity, as those unfamiliar with the PS3 wanted to try out the few demos that the electronics giant had playable in their plush nook of the Moscone Center. One of these playables was, of course, Unreal Tournament 3, but at this time, Teamxbox will just call it "Unreal Engine 3.0 Demo" as it was labeled.

Kotaku got their hands on Unreal Tournament 3 for the PLAYSTATION 3 this week at GDC, surprisingly enough, but only got to spend a few minutes with the demo before the expo hall shut down. The version of UT3 running on the show floor still had some work to be done, but it will still quite lovely to look at. Everything was all super-polygony and pretty-lighted and sexy-textured, showing off the Unreal Engine 3 goods and the PS3's poly-pushing prowess. The good news, as you've probably figured out by the title of this post, is that you can choose the stock SIXAXIS controller, with tilt-look, or go PC-style with a USB keyboard and mouse. Nice!

Is the PC taking another bullet to the chest as a feature that was unique to the platform is now spreading to console?

Epic Games vice president Mark Rein dropped an interesting little bombshell the other day concerning Unreal Tournament 3 and modifications, game reworks - and often labours of love - developed by third-parties and bedroom coders that have kept PC titles alive for years after release.

In an interview with Team Xbox, the ever ebullient developer revealed that third-party UT modifications are not only now possible on console, but that Epic is going to take mods formerly only available on PC versions of Unreal Tournament "and bring them over to PlayStation 3, and help their developers polish them up."

Ultra-realistic tactical shooters may have taken center-stage in recent years, but Unreal Tournament 3 proves there's still demand for brutal, flag snatching deathmatch amongst PC gamers, and with Epic Games' strengthened investment in console versions - no doubt fuelled by a certain 360 shooter that recently found success - rocket-flinging frag fests may become king of the couch again as well. Last week we sat down with UT3 producer and all-round good guy Jeff Morris to chat-up the ... » Read More
