There are various posts on the official UT3 forums saying that one of the user created mods 'Cooked' by Epic games is crashing PS3's. People are pointing towards the 'Mutator' mod that was released. As this is a user mod it is unclear who will look into this problem as if Epic look into the problems they will simply be a free testing arm for PS3 user mods and this task will become impossible once they release their utility for pc users to cook mods themselves.

Epic is very close to releasing an update to the Unreal Engine 3 editor, that comes with the PC version of UT3, that will allow UT3 mod-makers to cook their mods into the required PS3 format. Epic has been doing some internal testing and they hoping to expand to a wider group tomorrow or Friday. If all goes well then we should see the update released next week which is what Mark Reign expect's will happen.

If you've never played Unreal Tournament before, this is a must-own game on PS3. It's still the most frantic, engrossingly intense first-person shooter formula out there and even after eight years still proves to be wildly entertaining. It certainly helps that Epic has done a terrific job of making this game run on PS3, as well as provide tons of tweaking extras like server filters, customization options, and input alternatives that you typically don't see in a console game.

A patch for the PS3 version of Unreal Tournament is coming to the PSN on March 27. The fixes included in the free, downloadable patch include support for character mods, an easier method for downloading mods from the web browser, and basically a lot of other stuff related to mods (in addition to some other incidental tech fixes). The patch will also bring the European and U.S. editions of the game into alignment, allowing for online matches across the Atlantic.

Unreal Tournament 3 isn’t trying to re-invent the wheel or create fire out of thin air. What Epic Games attempted to provide for gamers was a feeling of home where they can settle in and get cozy without having to worry about epic changes in the gameplay. If you have ever played a game in the Unreal series, then you should come to expect the lightning-fast action that dares you, for one second, not to blink one single time for your safety of being protected from a death.
