X360 Version Of UT2007 Not Planned? >
2006/05/14 12:32:50: Posted by purbeast
According to VE3D, there are currently no plans to bring UT2007 to the Xbox360. This seems foolish considering the game would do well on the system, but read the quote below.

The only "newsworthy" piece was that (despite what might be listed on Xbox.com) there are no plans for a 360 port of UT 2007. I even asked something along the lines of "hey, I read on beyond unreal that there's plans to port Ut2007 to the 360." He was like, huh? Turns out that's not the case.

I want an Unreal Championship 3 (Sequel to UC2, not UC1) rather then this UT2007 crap.

After seeing the UT2007 footage, i don't care for the title anymore. It looks like a Quake-ish mod for UT, but has nothing like the good ole UT99 on it.

So yeah, give that trashy title to the PS3 and a UC3 for the 360!

My zany straight out of area51 theory is Sony quickly threw money at a couple of fairly solid titles to gain exclusivity literally days before E3. Or at least bragging rights of exclusivity for the duration of E3. This would explain all the confusion regarding this game and Assasins Creed, which was rumoured to actually being demoed on a 360 unit itself!

Just a theory, though, of course. Sony isn't beyond such trickery.

You all come up with the craziest things i swear rofl. I think UT2007 is looking great. A company that would pull that theory off though is Microsoft, like with how they announced GTA4 and all. They made it look like it was an exclusive for the 360 with that tattoo on Peter Moore's arm and the exclusive downloads for the games and everything but eventually got shot down when they said its coming for the PS3 as well.

ha ha ha sony fan boys are funny. did anyone even go to e3 if yoou did you'll see sony sucked
Written by Dahlsim (17) on 2006/05/14

Makes perfect sense. Sony's games at E3 looked promising but were clearly a long ways from ready to roll. Heavenly Creature is a "sometime in 2007 game" along with MGS and like GT HD etc.

Paying for a few good titles that were clearly going dual platform to change to exclusive on PS3 is a smart move by Sony. All is fair in love and console war.

Sony gonna need all the titles it can get, cause i just downloaded lost planet, and this is one hell of a demo.

I was hoping Sony would do somthing big at E3, but damn, M$ owned them....

Lost Planet demo is one of the best I've seen. Great effects!

Maybe MS doesnt want Halo3 to be upstaged?
Written by Itaintrite on 2006/05/14

Heh, GamersReport should be renamed to 360Reports.

"I want an Unreal Championship 3 (Sequel to UC2, not UC1) rather then this UT2007 crap."

I bet you would be drooling and shitting yourself with joy if this game were announced for the 360 as well.

How is this news? This has been common knowledge since forever.
Written by optaviusx on 2006/05/15

UT2007 could never upstage halo.... you think ut2007 is going to make $125 million on day one like halo 2 did? I'm sorry, but since when did UT2007 become more anticipated than halo 3? It never did. Also there are E3 interviews with head guys at Epic where they confirmed the 360 version, but who cares? People are more looking forward to things like Gears of War or Halo 3. UT2007 wont come close to selling as well as Gears of War, Halo 3, or Mass Effect...

Nobody is going to drool over the same game we've played for years only with prettier graphics and new weapons. Unreal games are never about the single player story they are all about multiplayer, its gotten pretty old by now as cliffyb said in the teamxbox video. There are things he can do with gears of war that he can't do in an unreal game.

"Nobody is going to drool over the same game we've played for years only with prettier graphics and new weapons."

Gee you described what Halo 3 might be!

And pratically every sequel to a game
Written by CraiZE on 2006/05/15

Itainrite, im not Staff of GamersReports, so why should they rename?

And i always thought UT2007 was coming to both Xbox 360 and PS3, and already then i wasn't too eager about playing it. When i saw this years E3 footage of gameplay from UT2007, i was dissapointed.... I still thought it was coming for all platforms!

So my dissapointment didn't come out of spite cause sony got that Title, but rather, if you played UC2, you don't want to go back to to the way UT was, and UT2K7 even mixes UT with Quake (imo) this time, which completely doesnt appeal to me.

So sorry for giving my opinion, Sony has God of War of which i think is great, but UT2007 just isn't that spectacular.

Running Fast around in a poor lit environment just isn't for me

im sure this game will be key board and mouse compat.... i see alot of hardcore PC gamers migrating to the PS3 over that feature alone
Written by anti-optaviusx 2.0 (107) on 2006/05/15

UT7 is gonna blow the socks off Halo3 and Gears of War.

And, the only reason Halo does well is the hype around it (movie?) and the fact that theres nothing else worth getting on 360.
Written by Test (102) on 2006/05/15

LOL...yea Unreal upstaging Halo, right...Unreal is crap, and always has been. It's a pisspoor FPs wannabe that takes all the skill out of deathmatch by giving each weapon a secondary fire. "Gee, I'm going to take my normal weapon and shoot a fullscreen blast to compensate for the targets I can't hit, this is so cool because I can fire my weapon anywhere and still pwn everybody in deathmatch!" I had more fun playing Quake 3 back in the day than any version of Unreal. Sorry bout the sarcasm, but Unreal is like a turd that won't flush, PS3 can have it.
Written by anti-optaviusx 2.0 (107) on 2006/05/15

haha .. Bungie should have licensed the Unreal3 engine; that way, the Halo3 trailer wouldnt have looked like crap. And, i wanted to play Halo3 I just pick up Halo1 for cheap.

Halo Fanboys Unite!

Please.....Halo 3 looked great and that trailer was in game. Get off of your Sony fanbox and open your eyes.

you guys are dumbshits, the UT series owns all, and defined the genre of fast paced shooters...unfortuantley you morons are all too young to have been there for UT99, which is where the hardcore shooter gamer was born...so Fuck Halo and its dumbass "story." Fast paced multiplayer action owns all that halo is...and who the fuck would want UT for a console anyways...it sucks without a good old mouse and Keyboard.

Fuck halo, its mainstream, and is not hardcore...UT pelvic thrusts the fuck out of Master Chief

I agree, Halo is way too overhyped, who cares if Halo uptsages Unreal. In the end, unreal is a better game, and much more aggressive and fast paced than halo has ever been. And its multiplayer is the best I have ever played.

UT is a ripoff from Halo just look at the vehicles basically almost every FPS is a Halo ripoff just like Killzone.
Written by phalanges (5) on 2006/05/15

With the PS3 supporting the keyboard and mouse, I might actually might enjoy playing FPSs on a console. PC FPS>>>>>console FPS.
Written by Test (102) on 2006/05/15

Fast paced shooters? Quake 3 isn't one? You must be stupid, Unreal ripped off everything ID Soft has ever made, and they still couldn't even get it right.
Written by Roger that (2) on 2006/05/15

um...no, Exa you are a moron, Halo came roughly 4-5 years after the original unreal, and basicaly copied its guns, and gameplay mechanics, with a few tweaks here and there. So, fuck that, the vehicles are also not very similar...so you obviously dont know shit.

Test,Quake III was shit, Ut99 upstaged it in every way, Q3's servers and gameplay mechanics were massivley flawed, and I dont know a single person who actually enjoyed that game more than UT99, or for that matter...they uninstalled it right after they got Ut99.

But I must say...Ut2003 was an utter failure in the "fun" department.

and um...remember Q4, what did that rip off?? Doom 3 perhaps?? Yes, yes it did. So they all rip something off, and Quake 4 sucked ass, and I seriously doubt that Ut07 will, I have much faith that they will build on the 99 version.
Written by Test (102) on 2006/05/16

Eh...I really don't see how Q4 could rip off Doom 3...since they were probably made by the same developers at ID Soft...LOL
Written by Q (1) on 2006/05/16

the 360 also supports keyboard and mouse. i know because i used it with FinalFantasy Beta. PS3 is nothing special to support keyboard and mouse. The PS3 is just a mega expensive clone of the 360. A crappy clone at that.
Written by Jon (88) on 2006/05/16

anti-optaviusx 2.0, I have to ask, what was the crappiest part of the halo 3 trailer? Was it the ultra-short draw distance, the sub-par textures, the terrible realtime reflections? Or is it simply the fact that it wasn't a prerendered ps3 movie?

Written by Test (102) on 2006/05/16

LOL...Anti just got pwned.
Written by Dr. A (27) on 2006/05/18

I must say that i find the Halo series extremely overrated too. It's decent but nothing more that.

As for the Halo 3 trailer, it looked interesting but i didn't see anything jaw-dropping.
Written by Atl06 (3) on 2006/05/22

wow.. Halo owned, owns and will always.. Unreal games suck, doom 3, quake 4 wow what a stupid and boring game.. Ps3 can have it.. Xboxfans dont want that crap.. Let's wait for Gow, it will definitely shooter game until halo 3's released.. We're having a wonderful year.. 2006 started bad but Xbox fans are gona get some nice treats by the end of 2006.. And 2007 will be the year.. And my best Prediction is " 360 will Kick Ass" (even though im getting a ps3, but i doubt it will come out as hard as its younger bro the "PS2")...
Written by Yakuza on 2006/05/23
