I hope Sony markets whatever it is like MS marketed Gears. THat game did wonders for the 360 last holiday season.

Well the PS3 is supposed to have a lot of untapped power. It'll be interesting to see if the Unreal team can find a way to access it.

Could it be yet another shooter? Is that all Epic makes?

Good to hear. Hopefully (if this is true) it's a third person shooter.

It'll probably be another shooter. Not that that's a bad thing; I eat shooters like candy.

Hmmm. I wonder what it is. Id say maybe Unreal Championship which they had on XBOX 1, and was a bit different from Unreal 3. But id say that will more than likely end up on 360 if they make an exclusive again. I wonder who the director will be. Maybe Cliffy B will make something cool for PS3 as well. Or they will use another guy. Im kind of hyped allready.

And so Epic taking advantage of both of them has begun... Wonder what Microsofts answer will be for this PS3 game? Another epic game perhaps? They have got them right where they want them... It became obvious with the Unreal Engine. Not to mention making exclusive content in any of the two will cost them.

Nothing gamers should complain about really... quite the contrary :D .

Hmmm. I think that might actually happen. THis might force MS to spend a little more money on Epic and have them make an exclusive, maybe even let the mappacks be even cheaper or be free quicker, maybe even free overall. This could get interesting. Gamers and Epic could be big winners here.

MS doesnt need another exclusive. They have GeoW2 coming from Epic already

I read in a different rumor that Epic is working with Sony in order to help the Unreal 3 Engine run better on the Playstation 3. Perhaps the messages got garbled up.

I'd wait for an official statement from Sony or Epic before I jump to conclusions.

Is it possible to find a link to this?

I've actually read a statement from Rein saying they "missed the boat" on creating a PS3 exclusive for the PS3 launch and that it takes a few years, something they didn't have.

GDC 07, epic annoucned that they have 2 unannoucned games (whihc will most likely be annoucned at e3), one exclusive to ps3 (which is most likely this game), and one exclusive to xbox 360 (gears of war 2 most likely).

there is no such thing as doesnt need another exclusive. MS will put more money out if they see fit. Gears of War 2 and maybe another EPIC exclusive could be a huge possibility if MS feels there relationship with Epic is iffy, and IF the PS3 game is looking very impressive.

We'll see. We are yet to know what they are doing on the PS3... But in the end, this could very well lead MS and Sony into fighting agains't each other over exclusive titles in the future, at least when it concerns epic.

They are winning huge ammounts of money on their engine... And to actually make exclusive content on only one of those two is definitely strange, since they could gain from multiplats. Unless of course, like I said above, MS and Sony do reach from their own deep pockets.

Is it possible to link this because I cannot find anything about 2 unannounced games or a PS3 exclusive to save my life.

If it is published by sony, ms can't put the money out. It is like saying that microsoft could buy lair, or heavenly sword.

Oh no thats not what i mean. I mean EPIC will make this game for SOny. MS will be seriousaly impressed and dont want sony to get a huge run on 360 with that game. SO MS puts more money into EPIC to make another brand new exclusive for 360 to go with Gears 2. Thats what i mean. These 2 companies could fight over EPIC exclusive games over the next couple of years.

Thanks. It says DICE '05 though, not GDC '07. That's why the Googlin' was coming up with nothing.

I was curious since all I hear about them making are shooters; just wanted to see if they pursued other avenues.
