UT3 Xbox 360 exclusive content confirmed

While we've been waiting patiently for any word on a Unreal Tournament 3 release date for the 360 we couldn't help but let our mind wonder about what extra content Epic would be packing in our edition. Seeing that Epic is known to add additional goods to game releases months down the road (here's looking at you Gears of War PC). And our bonus content dreams have been confirmed.

Epic Games just revealed that the Xbox 360 edition of UT3 will feature all the previously released PS3 and PC content as well as five additional maps not available on any other edition, two new characters (Master Chief?) and the addition of local split screen. High fives all around! No release date has been announced though, but there is a new trailer which we've embedded above. Enjoy and look forward to the exclusive UT3 content headed our way, because we all know custom content isn't going to happen.

[Thanks, Russ]

I'm really not interested in paying full price for the gimped 360 version. I directly blame Nazisoft for their closed network. They hide behind this "giving the best experience to its users", if that is the case then give me the game that anyone but 360 owners get to enjoy to its fullest.

For a system that was touted as this "make it your own" BS and "user content will drive the system aka Velocity Girl" it's funny how they are the least to embrace it. Okay Nintendo isn't so hot either but this is just egg on the face of MS.

There are thousands of MODs for UT3 and a few extra "exclusive maps" aren't going to mean squat. These maps will be remade by the community and then so much for exclusive.

No sale.

Thousands of mods? Have you even PLAYED the game, let alone actually looked for mods? There are FEW mods overall. I love this game to death and have the PC version, but it isn't all that popular of a game (a lot of diehards prefer 2K4).

That post is ridiculously incorrect.
