Ya right up there with the Fight Night 'bombshell' :smile:
Interesting they didnt bring up 360 in the recent IGN interview
http://ps3.ign.com/articles/705/705574p1.html 4 pages long.
I dont doubt a 360 version is possible, but there is no confirmation, or really no hard evidence that says its coming to 360.

Just a thought:
Sony gave Epic PRIME TIME airtime last E3. The game was always a PC title, but it was a big win for Sony to get a AAA FPS on their console. What a great way to burn a bridge than to then start yelling from the roof tops, "Oh, this is for the 360 as well!"
Epic has really moved up in the world. Last year they had a central place at Sony's E3 and MS gave them a lot of exposure on the game floor. This year MS *opened* their show with Gears of War as their "Fall 2006 Highlight Game". Epic is a significant middleware provider on both sides--and want to stay that way!
It only seems obvious to me, that *if* UT2007 is coming to the 360 that Epic not say a word. This is a big PS3 game due to its E3 product placement. If Sony is going to help them hype the game, Epic kind of has a responsibility not to harm Sony's efforts.
It may very well turn out to be like Fight Night Round 3 for the Xbox 360. It shipped in Feb/Mar (forget which), but I did not even know the title was in the works - let alone due out shortly - until AFTER the holidays. It seemed EA kept a very tight lid on the product. Why? Because they got prime time E3 air time at the SONY E3 2005 press conference.
So if UT2007 (if!), then it would not be a surprise that Epic is keeping it on the downlow. It would be the professional thing to do.

Less of a bombshell, and more of a pea-drop
In other words, it was totally expected.
just heard an interview on GS E3 live with a UT07 designer
she told him that the rumor has been going around on forums about this coming to X360 and asked him directly.
He said... "Right now"... we have announced it only for PS3 and PC.
When asked again at the end of the interview, he laughed and said, "hey I'm just a designer"
sounds like this theory may be right ...

I think we are seeing smoke and mirrors to protect certain products for a time period on each system.
Publishers would be foolish this gen not to include multi-console for every product from a financial point of view.
It's going to be up to 1st party software to sell exclusives (by and large) this gen IMO.

hrm... I dunno, it didn't seem too popular. There is a following on their forums, but... yeah. It doesn't seem like they ever made a big splash on NPD either. The first game was a stripped down version of UT2k3, and UC2 was kinda weird with the melee combat (IMO), and it just felt really slow.

Exactly. Why would Epic and MS want this game and GoW releasing at the same time on the 360? UTk7 would obviously canabalize some of the sales of GoW. It would be better to make it a PS3 launch window game (with the increased exposure because of it) and then release an updated version for the 360 in the spring...
Just seems to make more business sense.
