Made me chuckle.
Of course they are not making any comeback to PC, because they are the consoletard company as evidenced by
Which is just a marketing bullshit. Just like the rest of that PR crap.
I can easily name 10 upcoming PC-exclusive games which are much better and complex than anything Epic did in the last 12 years.
Better games. That don't need to sell millions and millions of copies so Cliffy B can buy himself multiple ferraris instead of one.

I want Unreal 3.
Unreal II is still better than most FPS released in the last half decade. Says a lot.
What's with the Epic-hate ?

You are right. Games where you play as a nigger usually have a lackluster SP campaign.
Unreal 2 was developed by Legend Entertainment. I thought they did a pretty good job, for it's time.
Either way. Skyway will be among the first ones to buy the new shiny DX11 exclusive.
I don't mind Epic doing a couple smaller projects, as long as it means more creative freedom for them.

Not unless they fire their art director who is responsible for the niggers on steroid character design first.Konjad said:
UT 2003/4 were atrocious.
Also, they better get Alex Brandon for the soundtrack back.

I'd rather these money hungry douches kept away from the PC, as they promised. These cunts are bloody parasites, they spotted a market with P2Win and other micro-transaction bullshit and are now backtracking/doing damage control/etc to get back on the train, trying to gobble a slice of the pie.

Fuck Epic unless they can make Unreal Tournament 2004 2.
Which they can't.
Because they're consoletards and would split all that content up into DLC.

What the fuck are you talking about? P2Win? Microtransactions? Epic isn't in the MMO/Social business.pocahaunted said:

UT2004 is a multiplatform game, MHC (or rather an addon to one - U2k3)
Which is the reason why it was so slow and it's so easy to be in frag top3 there.
In UT it's really hard to get to the top, in UT2004 it's like you are in The Matrix as you slowly float through the water that seems to have replaced air.

Gears of War: Tournament Edition (UT3) was bad bad bad bad. I hope their next major release is a giant map pack for 2k4.

For what it's worth, they've been throwing around teases that they'd like to do another full Unreal game. Considering how fucking excellent the first game is, and how... decent the second one is, I'm not expecting a ton from today's Epic, but nevertheless I'd still love to see them at least try to make something as original and inventive as Unreal again.Rasputin said:
As for Unreal Engine 4... they said the same thing about Unreal Engine 3, that it was a PC-focused engine. While that was actually true during its development to some degree, and Unreal Tourmanent III looked and played great with it, the later "3.5" editions gradually moved more and more towards a console focus. I wouldn't be surprised if that's what happens this time - pimp out the engine for maximum visual impact on PC, then as the next generation of consoles get lined up for release, move the focus more towards them.
Also, I have to say that Unreal Engine/UDK is one of the best and most intuitive development tools available. I'm actually very curious how they plan to improve on what they've already got, because the newest UDK releases are already capable of putting out possibly the best graphics ever seen on PC, and have a huge array of tools available for just about any type of game.
So a few years ago they insult PC gamers and then announce they will cater to them? Is the crisis hitting the video game industry this bad?
Ah well, still love UT3 though.

Enough?
Somehow none of them requires multimillion sales to bring profits in and at the same time their designers take some effort to make a game, not press a "Create Popamole" button in UDK so you can play GoW with the same copy pasted "take cover, pop a wave of moles, repeat" for 6 hours.

When CKII comes out i'll grind the disc down into a fine powder and inject it directly into my anus through a turkey baster. I won't be seen for atleast a month

Btw, most DLC bullshit falls into the micro-transaction category.
