I couldn't be more excited. The original's looking strong a whole year later. Imagine nine months' worth the improvements.

Looks like the 360 version of UT3 will contain some sort of GoW2 "surprise":

How will Epic handle the online side? Gears Of War was popular online but it had its problems with host advantage and lag.
I'm not here today to talk about Gears Of War 2 but I'll tell you, it's a much better game.

So the online side will be sorted out?
I'm not here to talk about Gears Of War 2 but it's a much better game than the original. And you know, there might be a little Gears Of War 2 related surprise on the disc of Unreal Tournament 3. That's all I'm saying about that.

That's all you're saying?
That's all I'm saying.

When do we find out about that?
Soon.

You're not going to say anymore? You can't drop a bomb like that and walk away from it!
Sure I can. I just did! [laughs]
