Midway to release Unreal Tournament 3 and 3 other games for fall!

October 26, 2007 in News comments 21

A few new Midway games should be coming our way in the next month! "Unreal Tournament 3", a sci-fi/military shooter, will be released for the PC and PS3 in November, followed up with a 360 version in 2008. "BlackSite: Area 51" , a military style shooter, will be released for the 360, PS3, and PC on November 5th. An "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" game: "Zombie Ninja Pro-Am" is due to be released on November 5th, only for the Playstation 2. Also, "John Woo Presents: Stranglehold" for the PS3 is going to be released on October 29th.

The full story can be read for more details on the games themselves.

The 360-degree rotating action can be a little disorienting for the first-time user, but once you start getting in shots on your competition, it's hard to put the controller down.

Battle scenes inside the palaces are thrillingly claustrophobic as players are forced to find cover and react quickly to gunfire from opposing combatants and alien soldiers.

Players can spit cannon fire while zipping through low and high aerial assault sequences. There's even a hovering surfboard. The outdoor landscapes vary from urban centers to desert regions to heavily armed base camps.

The amazing graphics, visceral sound effects, exploding alien body parts and rapid pacing of the vehicle modes take the gameplay experience to new heights.

      The focus was doing PC and PS3 at the same time (Although are they still doing cross platform between the two for matches?) The 360 version is going to be delayed until 08 though.

      Stranglehold wasn't too bad, an updated version of a crazy 3rd person shooter. I'd say for those on the fence renting is a better marker than any of the gameplay clips will be.

      Blacksite has been their silent title for a bit, hopefully it gets a bit more play if it turns out to be a good continuation to the Area 51 franchise.

        I could've sworn I saw an article that said that there was no Cross platforming between the PC and the PS3, but I see more articles about GameSpy making it possible...so I'm still not sure, I'm betting PC users are hopeful, just to inflate their egos more.

        BlackSite really doesn't look like anything new I've ever seen though, so I don't have high hopes for that. And Stranglehold pretty much lost any kind of hope with the PS3 copy...seeing as they delayed it about 3 times...which is, quite frankly, *bleep*ing pathetic, because it's not even a triple A title.

    Apparently, according to Midway.


    I thought the same thing until I read the article, though I was more excited about BlackSite.

    Well then thats another $64.19 down the toilet. There couldn't possibly be any more games coming out this year, let alone November. I think I have to choose between UT3 and Mass Effect now. I'm already getting 5 other games next month and I just remembered Kane & Lynch and Splinter Cell. Dammit.

      You might as well choose Mass Effect since the UT3 version of 360 won't be here til early 08.

          No really i know that. That wasn't my Point Cdemon. Since he also pro xbox(like you) most of the time i figured i tell him to save his money for the 360 one. After all it guaranteed to be better than PS3 right

          Soon i will also have the best of both consoles. NG2 will be grand.

    ROFL! You are all a bunch of NUBS!

    The pc version comes this November, the ps3 version got delayed because they couldnt get cross platforming to work with the pc.

    The 360 version is NOT delayed. It never was, it is a Sony TIMED exclusive, which means the ps3 version must come out before the 360 version, which means the 360 version isn't delayed, but the ps3 version is delayed because it was supposed to be released at the same time as the PC.

    Expect the PC version to be out this November, and the ps3 and 360 versions next year nubs

      Do you work for Epic? Just curious.

        no but I keep up to date on several gaming websites for Assassin's Creed, UT3(fast paced gears of war), and call of duty 4. and a little mass effect.

        Those are the only games I was looking forward to this year, but UT3 will have to wait until next year. : (

          I am well aware of the report that UT3 got delayed until next year. However, I have read a report since then that it is still on track for November and now this. Also, on Epic's website, both the PC and PS3 versions are still listed for November. I wasn't serious when I asked if you work for Epic, but do you have any kind of confirmation?

          i will try to find where i saw that from, it may take a while.

          I look at sooo many game sites, all legit sites too.

          So be patient with me.

          I saw it on an interview video about the ps3 version.

          Since when was it a timed exclusive? Last I read, Epic just put the 360 version on hold to wrap up the PS3 and PC versions.

          Sony paid a lot of money to tell epic to release it before the 360 version, just look it up, but their were problems with the ps3 to pc online, so they delayed the ps3 tell feb. of 08, and the 360 has never been delayed, the release date was pushed back because of that timed exclusive.

          To sum it all up, Sony paid epic A LOT of money to push the 360 version back to 08.

          Looks like trying to get pc to ps3 compatible online screwed sony over more and the 360 version will be out shortly after the ps3 version.

          I will try to find the dev. from epic interview.

          there is a link to some news, can't find that dev. interview with mark rein from epic.

          You guys dont need farther proof than all this I have stated, it isn't coming out this year.

    My brother is going to get Stranglehold. I played the demo, it was good. It's an enjoyable game. I don't care about the others though.
