All too real: 16 new screenshots of Unreal Tournament III |
Ó
Ever since we caught a glimpse of Epic Games' Unreal Tournament 3(Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Mac)'s hyper-detailed gameplay visuals in action, it's pretty much left us to pick our jaws off the floor to properly ask - or beg - for more. From the gameplay videos and trailers and developer interviews, we snatched up as much Unreal Tournament 3 joy we could get our fingers on.
UT3 just looked that good, and to get us back into that sweet state of game-induced awe, here are sixteen brand-spanking screenshots of the game itself.
What can yours truly say? This stuff is what dreams are made of. Not only are the characters hyper-detailed from their expressions to their costumes, but their weapons, environments and even enemies are, too. Looking closely enough, we could make individual scales, threads, rivets in armor. Shadow and lighting are hyper-realistic, to the point that you stop drawing the line between CG, game and reality. It's scary.
Favorite pick of the litter so far? The image where a soldier is running away from what looks to be a tank with blades mounted on its front bumper. Gotta love the dismembered skeleton hanging in midair.
Unreal Tournament 3 is definitely looking real. Real pretty. Enjoy the screenshots!

Can't wait to play it!
me too. but i guess i gonna need very good pc for this.
You are better off getting it on 360 or PS3, as they cost as much as just the video card (maybe even less) that you would need to put into a PC to play this....
The textures and characters are very reminiscent of Gears of War (Obviously because its by the same developers and on the same engine), not that I'm complaining, even being a PS3 fanboy I can admit when a rival game is good, and gears is good.
I can't wait for this game though its gonna be kick as$
^ that is all i have to say. those pics were to amazing for me, now excuse me while i change my pants.
Wow, seriously! Those screenshots are just amazing! I HAVE to get this game!! Even if it's just to look at all the eye-candy!! lol.
You just need a Gefore 8800 GTS, it's only $120 and might help with 2 GB Ram.
My PS3 will eating this game!
frightingly real!
I love unreal but 2003 and 2004 were both awesome and annoying at the same time.. the character models pissed me off since they all loked stupid. i still love the original unreal.
Unreal is far ahead of Halo.....
A 8800 GTS cost $300, at the cheapest place i can find it.. PC gaming is costly, but i love it... Beats owning a xbox for Halo any day.
I hope epic burns to the ground! the xbox is what made Gears of war and they sell it out to the *****t Mac PS3 This game looks gay as ***** i hope they lose money!!!!!!!!
You are truly uninformed aren't you? Gears is based off the Unreal Engine so your point is absolutely 100% invalid.
Gears of war is F*kin of the unreal engine so without it GoW will look crap and its their choice
Hope u Burn in hell and get a life
this is a definite buy. graphics even (kinda-close) run up to GOW. AMAZAZING...
This game looks Awesome, better looking than ( dare I say ) Halo 3, but then UT3 was built primarily for the PC and PS3 so I'm not suprised by the level of detail shown. ( The PS3 version was even shown before they even thought of GOW on the xbox360 ).
Was gonna get the PC version, but upgrading would be expensive.
Well done Epic and Midway!!
damn that looks good.. i never played unreal tournament before but i`m definitly getting this one for my ps3
"The PS3 version was even shown before they even thought of GOW on the xbox360"
What are you talking about? Much of the gameplay footage we'd seen of UT3 was initially on the PC. The first PS3 footage we saw was an UT Cinematic that Epic used to demonstrate the Unreal Engine running on a PS3 devkit at E3 2005. During that same E3, EPIC revealed Gears of War!
Also, it was not built primarily for the PC and PS3, like Gears of War, it was built for the UNREAL ENGINE, which has been optimized for all three systems. That's the whole point of their game enigne, and that's why it will be on all three systems (hence Gears of War on the PC, and it could have been on the PS3 but for the exclusive arrangement with MS).
Therefore expect this game to look virtually identical between the PS3 and 360, but superior on a top of the range PC (i.e. higher res and better framerates).
Anyway, it's looking good, and I'm looking forward to it.
"Therefore expect this game to look virtually identical between the PS3 and 360, but superior on a top of the range PC (i.e. higher res and better framerates)."
That's true, but I thought I heard something about the PC and the PS3 looking identical (some IGN article). I didn't hear anything about the 360 version being the same, but I could assume it looks the same too.
the graphics easily beat GoW. go get some glasses.
...because the 360 version is not due until next year (I don't believe it's been shown running on a 360 as yet). But yes, they are identical in the same sense that Bioshock on the PC and 360 are identical, with the exception that the best PCs can run it at a higher res and framerate and with slightly improved/sharper textures.
Those aren't in-game shots. The article talks about how the screenshots look so amazing and how Unreal Tournament III is going to look so real and stuff, but those are not in-game screenshots. Unreal Tournament III does look great but the gameplay doesn't look as great as those screenshots.
...if UT3 comes out on 360 at a later date, how much would you like to bet that they are going to make it run better, or possibly polish it more for the belated release?
They wont just build it and be done by the time the PS3 version goes gold, and then hold onto the game until its future release date.
You can bet they will be working on the 360 version more than the PS3 version, and especially since they designed it for PS3/PC, they should probalby know some stronger, or more effecient points of the programming and graphic moddelling.
You guys are as smart as a bunch of neandrethals.
the cheapest 8800gts on newegg is $280...this is one of the cheapest sites...........and this is only for the 320MB version.............i have 2gb and the 640mb tho so i dont really care..
just hope ths game isnt crossplatform or else yall console fanboys are gonna need to turn on ur aimbot.....opps i mean auto aim
Hence I'm going by all the gameplay videos I've downloaded and watched so far. ;)
They are not going to do anything special on the 360 version other than to continue the process of improving the game engine (an ongoing process for all systems). Therefore at most, the 360 will benefit from slightly better framerate and performance than it would have had if it was to be released at the same time as the PS3 version.
There are also issues to be resolved on the 360 version, such as user mods and disk space.
And as said before, it wasn't designed for the PS3 and PC, it was designed for their game enigine, which is Unreal Engine 3.
So enough of the insults please, you're not as smart as you think you are. ;)
