Unreal Tournament 3 PS3 Delayed Until 2008

delicious irony.

Irony: an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected.

Example: Selling your soul to MS only to demand it back years later after you realized that hey, having a soul is a good thing.

:lol You still think Bungie is leaving.
 
Honestly, GOOD There are still to many games coming out for me to buy, and now (hopefully) Haze will sell more and I'll have more people to play co-op with.

As a public company, Midway felt an obligation to its shareholders to let them know about the possibility of a delay. But our goal is still to get the PS3 version of UT3 in stores before the end of 2007. However, we will only ship it once it’s ready and is the best game we can deliver. The PC version is still on track for a November release.

Already old news. :( Wow, this thread moves fast!

Hey Mark stop posting and go do your job!

Oh come on. Even I have a sense of humor about it...

It was an honest question, actually. I didn't get the irony of stating that opinion is affected by exclusivity status, but I guess I might have viewed it from the wrong angle.
 
My 8800 system FOR THE CONSOLE-RAPING WIN!!!!!!111!!eleventyone

:D

But seriously it's a shame for PS3 folk. It looked like it was coming along so well for that platform too. I almost wouldn't be surprised if it comes out on BOTH consoles around the same time (if, indeed, it still makes it on the 360 soon).
 
Haha, this thread has now changed its collective mind more times than I can account.

Thread: O noes, delayed.

bishoptl: Not delayed

Thread: Haha, look at the people assuming its delayed. Lets laugh.

Tekunopathetic (sp?): Actually it is delayed. Read press release noobz!

Thread: NOOOOOOOOO

Mark Rein: Maybe delayed, trying hard not to be.

Thread: ??????

No fucking list wars but the PS3 still has a solid lineup for 07

Uncharted
Ratchet and Clank
Haze
Folklore
TC4
GT5P
Socom

and others
I have a bad feeling socom isnt coming out this year either.
 
I was definitely planning on getting this one, but I guess that opens the budget for another game this fall. I've been on the fence about Assassin's Creed, so maybe that'll get the nod. Or maybe I'll get GH3 and Rock Band now.

Its supposed to be coming out during Q1-Q2 2008 to avoid the Halo 3 hype for 360 so maybe this title won't be so exclusive at all.

That all depends. Do you have anything that can be used on the new rig?

If not, bet on $1000+ for a well rounded setup.

He is asking for a system that can run Crysis and UT3 your nuts if you think you can even build a good system for a 1000. If you want a system that runs this stuff the way its going to on your consoles your going to probably need SLI cards. Your spending at least 2500 to get minimum performance.

Summarized well, good sir.

Possibility of delay = Same shit Mark Rein has been talking about since day one: "When it's ready".

This is what I get for reading GAF for release dates. Unwanted rollercoaster rides.

How exactly? And why? Can't you wait just a few months?

Well first off there isn't going to be a collectors editon on the PS3. And if I was to get a collectors edition on PC it would only cost me 54.99. Plus, the PC version comes with a map editor. Also the PC version will obviously be better because of the controls and superior graphics.

Trust me, most Unreal fans don't care about halo.

:lol where do you come up with this stuff?

Oh I know but for anyone that owns a 360 and if they are going to buy a game this holiday season it would be Halo 3. Now if Halo 3 didn't come out this year people would probably buy Unreal Tournament 3.

Edit:Regardless its still coming out early 2008 according to Epic so it might release on the 360 around the same time as the PS3.
 
Now I have to find video card that will competantly play the PC version without costing me an arm and a leg. No way I can wait until next year!

WTF @ This Week.
We don't know if theres a delay. According to Midway its been pushed back and according to Epic there still trying to get it ready for a 2007 release.

according to midway , we can expect it to a 2K8 release, but yet they dont say it for sure....so my guess its 50/50

I say delay. Rein won't confirm it yet but it'll happen. The game is set to release in a month but he isn't sure it'll make its Fall date. You should know by now whether or not it'll make it.

I take it you haven't had much experience building PC's. He said he wanted a rig that will play those two games and a rig for $1000 will do so. If he wants to play those titles at maximum resolution with a 7.1 setup and a 30" LCD, yes, you're looking at a $3000 system. That's not what he was asking for though, I'm sure.
 
Could my 8-core Mac Pro run it? Its got two Quad Core Intel Xeon Cloverdown (I think thats the name) processors at 3.0ghz.

Its like a month old.

Can someone give me a recap?
0 hour: Thread made, lolz incoming
0.1 hour: lolz posted
0.1-0.5 hour: people try to spin using wikipedia quotes of the Government's Fiscal Year
0.5 hour: said people are owned by the original post
~sometime later: Mark Rein posts on official forums that they are trying to ship the game this year, however Midway has a responsibility to their share holders to let them know of any delays.

Overall: We don't know shit.

Okay I just upgraded my alienware to bring it up to spec about 6 months ago I did the upgrading on NewEgg.
I got a SLI Card, New Motherboard, New Processor, 4 gigs of ram, a 24" Monitor, and a new hard-drive and I dropped about 3200. All of that and I can run Bioshock full spec with no drop in frames but and this is a big but it sounds like Crysis is going to chew my system up.
