UT3's Gears 2 video will be multiplayer focused

Further expanding upon the (mildly dissapointing) knowledge that Unreal Tournament 3's special Gears of War 2 content will be a video, we now know said video will be multiplayer focused.

According to Midway's press release confirming UT3's release date, they make mention that the GoW2 video content "will include never-before-seen footage of the game's multiplayer modes featuring new maps, new modes, new weapons and new gameplay elements." Bonus, the video will be narrated by Epic's Rod Fergusson and Mr. Gears of War himself, ~~Cliffy B~~ Cliff Bleszinski! ~~Cliffy~~ Cliff narration FTW! We give it 28 minutes, no 23 minutes until this exclusive video content hits YouTube.

If there's GoW coverage, Dustin writes it. LOL

I'd give the vid the length of time of the vid + the upload time + the encoding time + processing time till its up on YouTube. 23 minutes sounds about right...LOL

Why damnit?!!! Why couldn't they have just put the Gridlock remake in as an exclusive demo? I would buy it just for that! probably going to pass now...

=/

I don't think you understand the process that goes into creating a fully play-able demo. I guarantee if they took team members off the project to make a playable demo (for SINGLE player), the game would be delayed a month. If they did a MULTIPLAYER demo, I bet it'd be upwards of two months. Personally, I trust Epic. I'd rather get the game ASAP because I know I'm buying it regardless. I don't need a demo.

If you're really in need of something along those lines, just think of UT3 as a kinda GoW2 demo in one way or another. I know it's the last game I'm buying before GoW2 in November, so I'll get my Epic shooting fix that way...
