Summer release for Unreal Tournament III

Summer release for Unreal Tournament III
Written Saturday, April 19, 2008 by Neil Christie

Epic Games and Midway have confirmed that Unreal Tournament III, the latest version of their popular arena-based shooter, will be coming to Xbox 360 "this summer".

The million-selling game has been available on PC since November 2007 and appeared on PlayStation 3 the following month. An Xbox 360 version has long been promised but has never had a firm date applied to it. Epic and Midway's statement has narrowed the release window down, and they're promising a few bonuses for patient Xbox 360 owners.

There will be five exclusive maps to try, two new characters and support for up to two players split-screen. As with the other versions of the game, downloadable content will be free.

I've been waiting for ages to get it, but i bet it only took so long cos they were sorting out the 'BadTouch cant kill any one' program.

Wow, I haven't played Unreal Tournament since the first one came out and that was a long time ago. Hopefully this one won't dissapoint, although I know that the graphics will be a million times better.

Worth a try, being developed by Epic gives me high hopes for it. Never played a UT game but i like pretty much any good shooter so can't wait.

blah, ive been runnin around on UT3 for my PS3 for a few months now, playing as marcus fenix, the beserker, locust, master chief, and cloud [charcher mods ftw] and the "exclusive content" the mod community will probally clone the maps and the PS3 owners will have em 2, i may rent it for 4 360 idk, depends on the achievements.

i would have already got this for pc if the price wasn't ridiculous. it's more fun playing games on a couch then at a desk anyway :)

Sunday, April 20, 2008 @ 05:10:19 PM

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG. I was hoping they would add bonuses, though losing map sharing and stuff is kind of hard to replace with equally good bonuses but I will still get this. Fo sho! There's too many games coming out in the summer I'm going to be BROKE.

It's nice to see a true version of the UT series hitting consoles. Now the Halo lovers will see what fast paced action truly is in a FPS.

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
