While the demo of Unreal Tournament III blasted across the Edinburgh Interactive Festival today, Epic’s VP Mark Rein released a plethora of information on the PlayStation 3’s timed release. He explained that the team is still planning on a November release, but they do not have an exact date.
Rein also released details on the Sixaxis functionality and the utilization of tilt sensing to control the Redeemer and Hoverboard during play. This is sure to be a hit with UT3 enthusiasts if implemented well and will add to the skill level needed to master the shooter.
When asked about the cross-platform play (PC versus PS3) he stated, “it’s unlikely…there’s no technical reason you can’t do it, there’s a lot of reasons why it might not make sense and that is the fact that on a PC we can release a patch five minutes after the last patch if we wanted to. PlayStation 3 we have to go through a fairly complex certing process…that’s not to say we’ll never have it, but I don’t believe we’re going to ship with it as a feature.”
This has already been a sensitive subject with the introduction of the FragFx controller and the difference between keyboard and controller play. He added, “The thing is, it’s hard to know if people really want it or not. Do you really want to play against PC players?” and at this point it is hard to tell.
Members of the festival were given a quick run of the demo and some of the comments were very promising. With a smooth frame rate and the employment of the Unreal Engine, the game is sure to be a fan favorite. While it may not suit the hardcore PC, keyboard/mouse user, the controller was touted as being extremely responsive.
Keep a close watch on PSU for more information on the franchise.

woot 1st
yes we want to play against PC.
i dont know y people say 1st.
I've been away for a while but from the sound of this there's no keyboard & mouse support for the PS3 version. Does anyone have any info about this?
The motion part made me really want this game now hope they do it right
what about war, ps3 users vs. all 360 users!
I like that idea! I wish they would put out a game, just one game that can pit PS3 against the 360! I would love that so much. The perfect game, like a mix between Gears of War, Metal Gear Solid, and more like those where 360 and PS3 users could go toe to toe. Man that would be awesome!
@ Deadonarrival06
Yeah that would be awesome,but alas the three money hungry console giants will never make a game where you truly have the largest gaming community.
psn id: gingo.... i dont really want to play against PC gamers when they might have the advantage with a keyboard and mouse as i don't have one i am going ot stick with the controller ofr the meantime
woooo im 8th. youo stupid person if your gonna do a first post at least post a second comment about the story. anyway i dont think enough people really want crossplay to make a profit.
you guys, an online game that shares servers between PS3 and 360 would just get so annoying. Fanboy: sony players are better! Fanboy2: nuh uh! 360 players are better! back and forth back and forth back and forth....
I would love to play wit PC gamers the more the better, you know i think people say first post because of the idiots who respond, i think if no one was to say anything about the guy who says (1st post) they would get tired of saying it and just post first coolas if your going to post you number atleast get it right
I have no desire to play someone on a PC, but I would love to whoop some 360 arss. It will never happen though!
I figure the more the better, so yeah lets play vs PC users. If the controller is really responsive then maybe it will do ok, that and isn't keyboard/mouse supported on the PS3 version?
I haven't played UT since the original, but this is looking promising.
It was confirmed months ago that the PS3 version of UT3 would support keyboard and mouse control.
The answer is simple, give us all a small group of cross platform maps with rules that wont change so quickly with patches, see how that plays. if consoles gamers get their butts handed to them they wont come to play and the servers with those maps will go unused and you'll know not to continue. but if console gamers bring their A game to the show and it stays evenly matched then both sides will enjoy the experience and you can fins ways to expand on the crossplatform play.
YESSS 15th!!! Of course we want inter-play. tards. Make it happen
This is a new era for gaming... meaning ONLINE is almost a standard. We should be able to play cross platform. Games (specially franchises) are richer by their communities envolvement, and seems segragation is just a problem of desicion. Decide to YES and the look for what i happens. ;)
To be in the safe side just add the filter to sort by how many players of Z-platform are playing currently in that server.
PLease, no. No cross-platform play. I REALLY don't want to hear a cage full of squeaky 10 year old voices swearing at each other because of their console fanboyism.
