In a new interview with Epic’s Mark Rein, he has applauded Sony’s “wonderful” decision to make PSN an “open system”.
Mark explains that, thanks to the open system structure of PSN, console gamers can get a lot more out of UT3, as all mods made for UT3 on the PC will run fine on the PS3 and don’t need to be approved or checked by Epic or Sony.
“This is the full power of the Unreal Editor. The same editor we used to create the games is now available to you. You want to import your objects you made in 3D Studio Max or Maya? Bring them in! You want to code an UnrealScript? Code an UnrealScript! All those things you can do. If they fit on our map, you can stick them on the PlayStation 3 and they’ll run!”
Mark also talks about a few other things, like Epic’s decision to use the PS3 as the lead platform for UT3 and Little Big Planet.

Read this the other day - Im interested in the editor - makes me actually think about getting yet another FPS for my PS3.
I think he mentions Home integration somewhere in the interview too! (Any news on Home at the moment Three Speech? PLEASE?!)

@ mobiletone : If you have the PC version you can get started on that mod already.

@mobiletone: You just don’t know what you have done. I am interested in this game already but if there is a LBP mod…I will just die.

7) it’s in the same box as Vegas Poker,
stored away until the Microsoft buys them out..
and we can exchange our useless P3 for a Xbox+ WII..
looking at whats in the store today,
ofcourse Threespeech is not mentioning anything,
because of all the crap of last weeks,
this week its biggest pile of crappiest nothing

@savage - my pc is not up for hardcore games that’s why i got a ps3, that and lacking 3d studio max or whatever..
i still think someone should get on it though
i’m full of ideas like this, i work in graphics for a living.

7 & 8, just go onto the US PSN and buy them for christ sake. Blimey, it’s really not that hard. There’s a Flow add on too. And all sorts of stuff. Anyway… I’m a bit peeved that we can’t play PC gamers from the PS3. My controls would be exactly the same, because I’d be mouse and keyboarding! Oh well. At least I know I’ll be playing with nice peeps. In the PC world, who know what you’re up against! Ha ha ha!
