Mark Rein praises PS3 version of UT3

In a recent forum post by Mark Rein, Vice President of Epic Games, he states that the PS3 version of Unreal Tournament 3 is running top notch and that PlayStation 3 owners will be in for a treat.

"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," said Mark Rein.

One of the best features about the PS3 version is the ability to download user maps created via the PlayStation Network. However without the PC version, players will not have access to a level editor, and must wait for PC users to upload their maps.

In addition, Epic Games has confirmed that the PS3 version will support both a keyboard and mouse and the SIXAXIS/DualShock 3 controller.

So if you don't own a monster PC, the PS3 version of Unreal Tournament 3 is your best way to go. Stay tuned for more information.

    Isn't this the same guy that was dissing the PS3 awhile back? What a jerk. I'm glad to see kb&m support though. I might be picking this up

    If this game gets pushed back to early next year i won't mind because honestly with uncharted, haze, and assassin's creed only weeks away, not mention the awesomeness of ratchet and clank, i'm gonna be flat broke.

    This sounds like a setup for a Q2 delay?  Any bets?

    No Musikguy is correct - Rein was dissing PS3 sometime back - right when MS was giving him coverage for Gears.

    Awesome, can't wait for this release. Finally a game company is giving the system the praise it diserves.
