Unreal III on xbox 360 could be bad...

UT III on xbox 360 is going to have less maps than ps3 version due to the size of DVD....

Now, many people say, "Well, just give us a game, and let us download the maps over xbox live."

Well, THAT IS NOT going to work! Because not every xbox 360 systems have HARDWARES, doesn't it?

God.............. This sucks.

Epic kind of worked on Gears of war before UT III....

So, nobody can say, "This developer SUCKS ANYWAY!"

The developer never clearly said that all the maps wouldnt fit, I have a feeling the versions will be almost exactly the same except PS3 has a slight advantage with KB/M support. I swear to god if someone tries to argue 360 graphics over PS3 I will laugh my ass off.WOWZORS

I continue to be disappointed that folks on the internet treat any positive thing we say about one platform as some sort of critique of another platform. We're a multi-platform company folks please come to grips with that. We like the PC. We like the 360. We like the PS3. We like the Macintosh. We like Linux. We will deliver UT3 for all of these platforms and it will rock on every one.

The simple facts state that the optical disc on the PS3 holds more data than the optical disc on the 360. If we exceed size of the 360s optical disc then we'll have to find alternative ways to get the content to 360 users such as making it downloadable. Adding a second DVD to a game like UT3 would be a challenge because when playing online you might not know exactly what map you're going to be playing next and we have to be able to accommodate users of the core system. So does that mean the disc on the 360 might have a map or two less? Possibly although it is too early to tell for sure. People love Unreal Tournament because we always ship it with tons of great content but that also makes it a bit of a disc hog - in a good way

Obviously, and as is true with most major games on 360 and PS3, you're going to be putting your hard drive to good use if you want to experience the full richness of content that UT3 will have to offer over the lifetime of the game. the fact that you can do this is a good thing.

I don't know the exact numbers but I suspect the version of Gears of War that most of our customers play today on their 360s, when you combine the downloadable content with the content on the disc, is larger than what we could fit on the 360's optical disc alone. So clearly there are perfectly good strategies to cope with this situation. We're all very used to downloading extra content for console games and with UT3 there will be lots of it for all supported platforms. In fact the cool thing about our engine is that when you make content for one platform it can run on all of them. If history is any indication, the vast majority of UT3 content won't even come from Epic - it will come from some very brilliant end users with lots of cool and innovative ideas.

When it comes to user created mods on the 360 - we will work with Microsoft to find a way to support them. We just don't have all the answers today and it isn't our chief priority at this very moment because we already have our hands completely full shipping UT3 on PC and PS3 as well as shipping Gears of War on PC. When we get those out of the way, and get a little time to spend with our friends and families, then we'll get back on this issue and figure it out.

There we go. Everyone is happy now.

At no point do they say that the xbox 360 version will have less maps in the quote your refering to. Read it properly.danielsmith2020

Dude it automatically has less maps when you add user created maps into the equation. Also this whole "360 having less maps" thing is really old (like May 2007 old) when Epic said theres gonna be around 30-40 maps on the 360 version and when announced CM's on the PS3 platform.

Average 360 owners who don't pay attention to this sort of news won't care since they only own a 360 and will automatically be one of the best online titles since it has blood/gore (like GOW) and it will have more maps than any other Online titles that will release. Oh also the gameplay of course :)

If you read what the developers say, it's going to rock on all systems.Heil68

Well...since the devs/designers have not said that yet. Then why do you think that? Is this from PSU?

It amazes that when there's a bad rumor against the 360 lems need all the proof in the world but when it come to bad PS3 rumors they don't need any facts at all.

I might just kill my account.

Um its only bad for those idiots without a HD. It wont be the best version for once but it will be grat for those without a PS3 or a good PC. I will be getting the PC version like any self respecting Unreal fan.

People paid 500+ for a PS3. Only makes sense that we see the advantages of that price. If Core users want those extra maps, well they gotta take out their wallets.

Microsoft just wanted to make a quick bucks as long as possible and say that they got the best HD experience for half the price of the PS3 and 50 bucks more than the Wii. Now that gamers are smarter than to own a Core system seems that bandwagon has failed and now MS has screwed themselves royally.. My bet is that they'll just release a new Xbox in 1.5 years with a HD disk drive.

Why 1.5 years you might say? Well they want to cover their a$$es and say "Hey the console lasted more than 3 years like the first Xbox". I'm tired of their b/s since the past 5 months and I'm gonna go back to PC gaming as my only way to game..
