Epic Games has announced (http://utforums.epicgames.com/showpost.php?p=26105582&postcount=1) the Unreal Tournament 3 Titan Pack and patch for the PlayStation 3 have been delayed until March 19th.

Unfortunately, due to circumstances out of our control, the certification process for the PS3 patch and DLC has taken much longer than we expected. As a result, we have been forced to push back the release date for the PS3 version to 3/19.

The PC patch contains updates that will improve mods cooked for PS3, so we'll be taking advantage of this extra time to work with mod authors to make sure the best mods for UT3 are cooked with the latest patch.
Epic Games has also announced (http://utforums.epicgames.com/showpost.php?p=26105114&postcount=1) the Titan Pack and the Unreal Tournament 3 version 2.0 PC patch are coming tomorrow. You can find the huge changelist right here (http://utforums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=663354).

The Titan Pack and the Unreal Tournament 3 patch to version 2.0 are imminent! We'll be releasing them both tomorrow (Thursday, March 5) for PC.

Remember that you can activate your retail copy of Unreal Tournament 3 for Steam, using the CD key. (Remember to remove your old UT3 install, so there aren't any conflicts). Steam activated UT3 clients will automatically be updated with the patch and the Titan Pack tomorrow.

I don't know if I want to re-install UT3 for this or not...

I was just playing... man this game is SO much better on a console controller. Everything is way easier to pull off on the console.

I hope that they get this patched up on the 360.

Lucky you, I couldn't do crap with a 360 controller on this game, try as I might. My best bet was the flak cannon and start spamming as best I could before someone with a sniper or shock rifle took me out.

I'm going to wait awhile before re-installing to see what, if anything, the mod community does with it. I'm already hurting for hard drive space, so I don't think this is going to make the cut.

Have you played both? I have played Unreal Tournament 3 three times. First on the PC, then on the Playstation 3 and again on the Xbox 360.

The console version is significantly improved over the PC version. The pace is slightly slower which gives you a chance to really use and enjoy the vehicles. Plus, the vehicles control significantly better on a console controller. Not to mention that the UI was designed around a console and not the PC (it all seems a little obtrusive for the PC).

If the pace is slower, it's because you can't aim responsively on an analog stick. That's all.

Perhaps, but if the game is more fun using that control scheme then the game is more fun.

Oh sure, console limitations make all games more fun.

I still play ut3, now via Steam, and can't wait for this pack. Finally got a new widescreen monitor that breaks my previous 1680x1050 resolution barrier and ut3 looks fantastic.

OMG are you serious? I take it you are one of those people that cannot use a mouse very well, and/or are missing half of their brain.
