E3 2007: No Unreal Tournament 3 for Xbox 360
During the Sony press conference today, it was announced that SCEA, Midway and Epic have entered into a deal with Epic for Unreal Tournament 3 to be exclusive to the PS3 console. It looks like the PC and PS3 will be the only options to get your Unreal fix. (at least until the timed exclusive deal runs out)
“We feel very confident that Unreal Tournament 3 will continue to deliver on Epic’s promise to gamers to develop only the highest quality titles using our cutting-edge Unreal Engine 3 technology,” said Mark Rein, vice president and co-founder, Epic Games. “The game takes full advantage of the power of the PLAYSTATION 3 system, and Unreal Tournament 3 will for the first time allow users to create robust user created content, known as “mods”, on the PC version and play them on the PLAYSTATION 3 system. We’re extremely excited about this and we feel this will bring a level of creativity, innovation and replayability not previously seen on home consoles.”

Gamespot “That exclusivity will remain until “early 2008,” when an Xbox 360 version will be released.”
