Unreal III Announced

Details about the background behind the upcoming Unreal III are available at Voodoo Extreme. From the article: "The highly-anticipated Unreal 3 takes gamers into the mysterious past of their favorite royal alien parasite inside the body of a giant slug, TCA pilot Ne'ban, last seen being blown to smithereens at the end of Unreal 2." Sounds like an interesting story concept. Update: 04/02 18:02 GMT by Z : April 1st hoax story.

Offtopic?! Common people think! Slug + Salt = dead slug

Plus it's even presented in a witty yet slightly obsucre Simpsons/Jimmy Buffet reference

is worthless today

Just today? You have to raise your standards.

And in other news

[aclysma]

Half life 3 is expected to be on an early release track, 3-4 weeks from now, following hot on the heels of Duke Nukem. At least today my quote on the bottom of the page was funny: Automobile, n.: A four-wheeled vehicle that runs up hills and down pedestrians.

Sweet!!!

"Mr. Crow is the ****." said Lead Designer Biff Cleszinski, "I mean seriously, who'd want to **** with an undead space clown with a giant codpiece, a hat made of human flesh and spiky blades of death on the end of each finger. He's the perfect villain, and makes the Skaarj queen look like a lovable little kitten."

OH HELL YEAH! Sign me up!

In other news:

Jay: "First you take a run at La Fours with a sock full of quarters. I'd do it, but I pulled my back at humping your mom last night. Neetch. Okay, you

How to improve it

[Nuxi2k4]

They would make time warps happen every fifteen minutes and the whole thing needs to end as just some computer sim on the holodeck

Umm...

[Soul-Burn666]

Unreal 3 was announced like half a year ago....

Or at least the engine [unrealtechnology.com] was.
And it looks very sweet.

Straight from Gamespot:

"Since this was republished with a straight face by several news sites,
including the revered Slashdot, it seemed to be legitimate at first."

Oh wow.

The Solution:

[KDR_11k]

Epic announced the next UT [beyondunreal.com] days before. Those diappointed today will still get their next Unreal game.
