Unreal Tournament III exclusive to PC/PS3 until '08

"Today, the company revealed that it has also struck a deal with Sony that will certainly boost sales of its PlayStation 3 console. Today at Sony's press event, Mark Rein took the stage to announce that Unreal Tournament III will be exclusive to the PS3 and PC when it is released later this year, and it will allow the importations of mods made for the PC version to the PS3. That exclusivity will remain until "early 2008," when an Xbox 360 version will be released."

This is huge news for Sony and its lower than expected PS3 sales.  I am not a Sony naysayer.  Despite half the media boasting what a failure the PS3 is, I see awesome potential for the system and this just might be the game that pushes me over the edge of purchasing a PS3. 

I have been a monstrous fan of the UT series ever since the original and have been eagerly awaiting the latest offering.  Of course, I may just dump the money in to upgrading my PC so that it will run UT III.  I haven't quite decided yet.
