UT3 PC special edition unveiled
Hours of mod tutorials.Midway America has shown of the contents of the Unreal Tournament 3 collector's edition on PC.
Inside the fancy tin will be a hard cover art book covering concept drawings for vehicles, characters, weapons and environments. There will also be a bonus DVD featuring the history of Unreal Tournament, behind the scenes footage, and over 10 hours of toolkit tutorials to help you build your mods.
The package will go on sale for USD 59.95, and will be available in Europe, South Africa, Russia and "most other territories". Midway Europe has yet to get back to us about a price.
Yesterday Epic Games confirmed that PC and PS3 owners of the game wouldn't be able to play together at launch. Lengthy console certification processes were to blame, and the developer wasn't prepared to hold back content from its PC user base in order to deliver it to the PS3 crowd at the same time.
Unreal Tournament 3 will be released in November on PS3 and PC, followed by a 360 version next year.
