“So having the Master Chief running around Blood Gulch on a PS3 might not be the most novel concept to Microsoft.”

My point was that from a legal standpoint there is no difference between the Halo mod for UT2004 and this Halo content for UT3.

For once Norbit, I can’t disagree with your assessment that something’s “retarded.”

Thanks Rollett, fixed that.

And Phil, I know it’ll disappoint you to hear a good answer since you despise me so, but this is the first UT game to appear on a Sony platform and allow user created content. So having the Master Chief running around Blood Gulch on a PS3 might not be the most novel concept to Microsoft.

“One has t wonder what Microsoft would do if Halo levels were replicated in UT3″

There has been a complete Halo mod for UT2004 for a couple of years. Why should a UT3 version be any different from Microsoft’s standpoint?

“And no one is taking characters from PlayStation games (do they even have any games?) and putting them on our platform”

That’s just retarded. Firstly it makes him sound like an idiot and secondly it reminds people that this kind of modding isn’t possible on 360 games.

I cringed as I read that last sentence.

Well, fair enough. Everyone gets publicity, so I guess that appeals to Microsoft’s marketing.
