I just got my PS3 80GB, i also picked up warhawk which is awesome. I was thinking about UT3. Need some advise about it. Is it worth picking up now and is there alot of lag when online? Also will the Blue tooth headset that came with warhawk work with it?

Thanks

it's my favorite MP and i don't really get into MP games. Works fine with the controller and if you wish, you can use a keyboard and mouse.

If you played the first two with a Keyboard and Mouse, a controller control scheme is a bit hard to get used to, and to be honest, this game is just more of the same damn thing. Has a Halo 3 syndrome. Been there done that. Only that UT3 is a whole lot better looking.

I wanted COD4 on Boxing Day with my PS3, but instead i got UT3 since COD4 was sold out. It's a decent game...nothing amazing. The thing is, the online needs to be more detailed, like it doesn't even show you how many deaths you got, only the kills you got. The campaign is highly repetitive and sort of boring, but the best part about this game is the brutal slaughter you can produce when you're on a roll. It's very fast paced as well, but for you mate, i would suggest renting it first.

I have UT for my PC and love it. I'm curious how the keyboard and mouse setup work on the PS3. Anyone using that? Thoughts?

UT3 is totally worth it dude, get it, there are lots of people playing it and it is not hard to find a low ping game, but I will warn you, there are always a couple of games on the server list that some dude with a dial up connection is trying to run or something because there are pings in the multi thousands, but very very few and they are easy to avoid. Other then that, as long as you get in a room that has less then 300 ping they are very playable, especially when they are under 200. As for warhawk, I dont really know, the only game the mic seems to work with right now is warhawk, I dont know about resistance but it dont work with UT3, rumors are there is a patch for blue tooth headsets, and I dont really know if you will like warhawk or not, the shooting is not all that great and flying a warhawk is fun for about 10 mins.

If I were you I would totally go get CoD 4 over UT3, but if you can, I would just own both, which I do.

Its pretty fun, and the speed is crazy. Its like going back to Quake 3 Arena with a modern computer. That said, no splitscreen makes it where I probably won't play it much since I can no longer take my ps3 online. I pray Epic releases a split screen patch for this thing so I can play it with friends. Bots would make 4 player splitscreen insane.

I love it. I don't get any online lag ever, and the graphics are great. Its fun and fast gameplay, if you have never played an Unreal game before I suggest you pick it up, its good fun.

It's a good enough game, doesn't hold my attention like COD4 does, I'd buy COD4 over UT3 if I had neither and was presented with the choice. I hope it gets better in the future with more mutators and levels. No lag for me that I've noticed, though over the last few days I have had some problems connecting to games, which I'm sure is just the gamehost having problems.

Yeah, the game is definetly worth your money. The singleplayer is a bit weird, but the multiplayer is the best, it's solid and awesome. Lag only depends on if people's internet connection sucks. So if you liked the games previously made in the series, then you'll love this one.

Unless that's the worst attempt at sarcasm I've ever heard, I must say your comment strikes me as odd, seeing as you gave it a 10.:?

Fun, fun, fun.

It's not boring by any means. Non-stop action. I used to play a lot of SOCOM, but hated waiting between rounds when you died. So after a while, I started playing respawns on SOCOM.

UT is just a non-stop fragfest. The action never stops. Its a fun game if that is what you're into. If you're looking for a more strategic FPS, where you can duck and hide, snipe from afar, then it's not your game. You can't blink, there's just too much action. I highly recommend it.

Single playeris useless, but the multiplayer is a fast paced action game that will keep you hooked for days! Buy it I recommended.

I own both and prefer CoD4 but enjoy playing UT3. CoD4 has a better single player experience and a better multiplayer experience if you prefer a little tactics or realism with online play.

UT3 is a solid "run and gun" multiplayer game, it's very fast paced and has some good teamplay elements too it.

I play CoD4 much more, but enjoy UT3. If money isn't a big deal get both if you have to choose CoD4 would be my recommendation.
