First dibs: Mark Rein describes play experience on UT3 PS3 port
The last time we reported on a gamer jumping the gun on a title that was yet to be released to retail, the story ended tragically with the overly eager fan facing the wrath of a banhammer. But when it’s a dev studio employee – no less than a VP at that – that decides to rub it in everybody’s face that he’s got an early bird experience of the title, well, it’s a different story altogether.
Over at the Epic Games forums, Epic Games’ VP Mark Rein (sort of) tattletaled on his experience playing the Unreal Tournament 3 PlayStation 3 port:
I was playing the PS3 build for a few hours tonight and it is really, really fantastic. Amazingly smooth and solid. I think you PS3 users are in for a huge treat with UT3.
As you guys will recall, UT3‘s foray to the PS3 won’t be preempted by a demo. And while we imagine some fans are getting a tad jealous of Rein’s announcement, it’s still good to hear that UT3‘s looking better even if a release date is yet to be announced. UT3 for the PC has already gone gold, and will be launching this November 19. The Xbox 360 version is expected to launch by next year.
