Mark Rein: Unreal Tournament 3 made slower on PS3 for console gamers |
Ó
If you haven't noticed, Epic Games' Unreal Tournament 3 (Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360, PC) runs
significantly slower on PS3s compared to the PC version. According to Epic vice
president Mark Rein, this is intentional to make the experience on
consoles as fun as its other iteration."Your fingers are just not as precise as your whole arm," Rein told SPOnG in an interview. He pulled out Halo for comparison, saying Bungie's original entry in the popular FPS trilogy was slower when played on the Xbox than on PC. He commented, "to me the movement and speed as a console gamer is just right."
Rein cited the difference in speed between two versions as the reason why those playing on consoles can't go head-to-head with PC UT3 players. "You have got to make some compromises for each platform," explained Rein.

UT3 is slow enough on PC. I have to add the berserk and speed increase mutators to get that real UT feel that all the other games had. UT is about frantic gameplay, not calculating button presses. Epic fail.
haha, that was a pretty unreal pun, man. Gave me quite a redeeming lol.
They could have made the Playstation 3 version compatible with keyboard and mouse. Hell they could even have control speed and sensitivity adjustments that the player could configure in the options menu or something.
It is compatible with keyboard and mouse and it will probably have sensetivity controls. Thats not what makes it hard to shootr on consoles.
It is compatible with keyboard and mouse. The game, however, is primary a controller based game and needs to be tweaked as such.
UT3 isn't supposed to be on consoles. UT3 is about super fast based chaotic frantic gameplay.
Neither is halo but guess what it is so deal with it people. Besides just cause you can use a keyboard and mouse on the PS3 doesn't mean you can as fast on the PC version. There's coding on the disc it self that allows such things and not everyone knows that you can use keyboard and mouse. Its still going to be fast.
