This could start a trend... this console fps stigma really, REALLY needs to die.

I thought this was confirmed long ago.

Itaintrite,

No offense, but I have repeatedly said that Epic Games had never "Officially," confirmed this. I continously pointed out that the only place this information was being circulated was in the chat rooms and forums. People often referred to it as something that had been confirmed, but in reality it never had been announced in any way.

My only question for Mark Rein is, "Was officially announcing this really that big of a deal...Why did it take so long." It was obviously something people were interested in and wanted to hear about, so why not answer their question. Rein could have saved people a lot of time speculating if he would have announced this before.

@WORMGERM

No need to be nasty, especially when this is the most subdued and non-fanboyish comment I've seen from Krogan. We should encourage him to post like that more often.

madgunde,

Do you realize that when you call me, "Krogan," you are calling me by the name of my Alien Race.

That is the exact same thing as if I called you, "Human." Or in Star Trek terms, rudely saying "Hue-Mon."

Krogan is my Race

Battle Master is my Title -- I'm one of the best the Krogans have to offer!

Urdnot Wrex is my Name



Urdnot Wrex is a legendary Krogan Battle Master in the awesome looking game called Mass Effect for Xbox 360. You can read about me here: hxxp://masseffect.bioware.com/

madgunde, and everyone else, I suggest you use the bathroom before reading the article about Urdnot Wrex and clicking on his COOL Avatar, because he is very intimidating. It wouldn't surprise me if people come back typing "Urddddnnnott Wrrrexxx," out of fear rather than, Urdnot Wrex.

But, I guess that is what proofreading is for. :)

By the way, madgunde, I would like to thank you for the support you offered. I always thank everyone when they offer support, so I certainly would not leave you out.

WORMGERM: Wow I wonder what else U do with that dirty little mouth of yours??? R U looking for work??? Seriously how many brain cells did it take for U to write out that little insult? Do U feel better now? Theres meds for that sort of behavior. I didnt know turrets syndrome could affect the way U type. Gotta love 12 year olds and their 4 letter words. Lets see how many cuss words I can put in a sentence because I cant talk civilized!!!!!

I am looking forward to playing this game with a mouse and keyboard. I know what system I will be buying this game for!

How many brain cells does it take to write you instead of U? obviously more than you have

WORMGERM: Wow nice comeback. Maybe "U" should stick to the 4 letter words...

Response:

(1) pedro (i.e. "sky"), if you enjoy playing playing Unreal with a keyboard and mouse, it sounds to me like you have known which platform you will be buying Unreal 3 for all along--the PC!



The PC version of Unreal 3 will have by far the best graphics, and it will have the keyboard/mouse gameplay that people love. Unreal 3 will work great on any PC. And the way the prices of graphics cards continues to drop, you can be playing Unreal 3 on your PC at 60 frames per second with a resolution of 1200p for quite less than "one of the systems currently on the market." Right, pedro!



(2) PimpDaddy, don't pay too much attention to immature people like, WORMGERM.
Written by pedro on 2007/08/05

Krogan- You guessed wrong. Ill be buying it for my PS3. I refuse to upgrade my PCs video card as it will become as obseleteas the 360s disk media in a few short months.

I think its pathetic that Microsoft is releasing this game with only joypad support. Maybe if they could find a way of squeezing money out of their fanbase they would do it.

@ pedro (I mean, "Sky"),

My Name is Urdnot Wrex, I am of the Krogan race. Battle Master is my Title. I am from the awesome game called Mass Effect.



*** pedro (Sky), just as it was never officially announced that keyboard/mouse support would or would-not be supported in the PS3 version of Unreal 3, the same situation exists for the Xbox 360 version. Although we won't know for sure until an official announcement is made, there odds are that the Xbox 360 version of Unreal 3 will in fact support the use of keyboard/mouse in addition to a controller.



pedro (Sky), here is a lesson I suggest you learn once. If you were to upgrade your PC graphics card, you would only need to do so once, and it would INSTANTLY be a LOT more powerful than the Playstation 3...and the graphics card costs a LOT less money!



Here is the devastating truth, pedro (Sky), although the PC graphics cards will continue to evolve and get more powerful, which may cause you to think that yours is "obsolete," the FACT of the matter is that it would only take JUST ONE upgrade for your PC to make it VASTLY SUPERIOR to the Playstation 3!



Unreal 3 on the PC is INFINITELY more impressive than the Playstation 3 version. Unreal 3 runs at a resolution of over 1200p lines of resolution on a PC at 60 frames per second! Playstation 3 is a full generation behind that level of performance!

Even Mark Rein pointed out that the PS3 is a generation behind what Windows Vista/DirectX 10 is truly capable of.



pedro (Sky, WiiMiiControl), go keep wishing negative thoughts on people, because that is what you are best at, since you have so much available time, due to the FACT that the Playstation 3 does NOT have any decent games to play.



Any true fan of Unreal Tournament 3 will be getting it for their PC. That is where all the true/original fans of Unreal exist. And that is where the best version of the game is being released.

NUFF SAID.
Written by pedro on 2007/08/05

All the points about upgrading your PC to be better than a PS3 can be applied to the 360 also. The only difference is the 360 has had more time to develope games, much of which are just ports of PC builds.Your so bias you just cant see it. MUFF SAID!
