Rein: UT3 PS3 Graphics Better Than Gears

November 14, 2007 | Author: play-beyond | Filed under: Games

According to Mark Rein, Epic’s vice president, the upcoming Unreal Tournament 3 on the PS3 “pushes the graphics bar up even higher than Gears of War”, which was a phenomenal success on the Xbox 360 when it was released this time last year.

Speaking in an interview, Rein said:

“People are going to be pleasantly surprised. It’s a really high end experience that pushes the graphics bar up even higher than Gears of War. There’s more polygons, there’s more stuff going on, there’s more explosions and there’s more things happening, so we’re just really pleased with the way the game runs on the PS3.”

Rein said that there is “something special” about playing UT3 on the PS3, and that while the speed of the game has been reduced by about 20%, “it feels just right to be playing it with a controller”.

Unreal Tournament 3 is a first-person shooter video game and the next installment of the Unreal series after Unreal Tournament 2004. UT3 is out on PC on November 23, with a Euro PS3 version scheduled for early 2008.
