Beyond Unreal was able to snag a handful of Epic's UT3 developers for an IRC chat last night. For those interested, a chat log can be viewed here: http://www.beyondunreal.com/content/articles/203_1.php

The after discussion is almost as good as the irc chat.

Well, new news since I posted that. Midway released a financial update yesterday in the form of a press release. Here's the relevant section: ************************************************************************************** CHICAGO, Illinois, October 2, 2007 Midway Games Inc. (NYSE: MWY) today announced revised estimates for the Company's third quarter ended September 30, 2007, and fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. The changes are primarily to reflect Midway's decision to release Stranglehold for the PLAYSTATION® 3 computer entertainment system in the fourth quarter rather than the third quarter, the expected movement of Unreal Tournament 3 for the PLAYSTATION 3 system into the first quarter of fiscal 2008, and lower expected sales of BlackSite: Area 51 primarily due to the adverse impact of the split shipment between the Xbox 360 and the PLAYSTATION 3 system, with the European version of BlackSite: Area 51 for the PLAYSTATION 3 system shifting into the first quarter of 2008. ************************************************************************************** They reiterated that the PC version is still on track, but who really knows? Mark Rein's take on the situation can be seen here: http://blog.wired.com/games/2007/10/epics-mark-rein.html

I'm still undecided as if I'm to get the PC and/or the PS3 version plus also it seems getting the bonus edition in Europe may be a problem. > Any one played the qauke wars enemy territory demo??? > > I played it and cancelled my game order. > I tried mistakenly thinking it was a Quake game and not some CS style thing. Somehow I much prefer games where it's fragging and not killing - could be I am getting old. > It was far to much like Battlefield 2142 > I guess you're right it's closer to that than to CS.

Just saw the systems specs released on Voodoo Extreme
-------
Minimum System Requirements
# Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista
# 2.0+ GHZ Single Core Processor
# 512 Mbytes of System RAM
# NVIDIA 6200+ or ATI Radeon 9600+ Video Card
# 8 GB of Free Hard Drive Space
Recommended System Requirements
# 2.4+ GHZ Dual Core Processor
# 1 GBytes of System RAM
# NVIDIA 7800GTX+ or ATI x1300+ Video Card
# 8 GB of Free Hard Drive Space
---------
Looks like I may be okay for hardware to run the PC version (3 Ghz P4HT,
2 GB ram and a 1900XTX card) so that is the preferred one.
It is great times to be a gamer when just looking at the list of coming
games I must say :-)
Kind regards
Bruno

It is very similar to BF2142, but with more simplicity to make it easier to play. It is pretty harsh on system demands though, so better have a decent or better setup to play.
