has uncovered a job listing at 2k Boston (formerly Irrational Games of BioShock / SystemShock fame) that reveals their next title will be an action-packed multiplayer game for the PC/PS3/360 and will be powered by Unreal Engine 3.
Renegade X Mod Update
Screenshots galore from
Renegade Xas they show off the new Light Tank model and Flame Tank concept art and the new HUD System as well as the Scorpion Hunters and Walls Flying maps. Remember, voting is still underway for ModDB's 'Mod of the Year', so support your UT 2004 and UT3 modifications!









Tactical Assault Jungle Media Update
has posted a bunch of new screenshots of a atmosphereic new map aptly titled Jungle. They've also got an internal interview of Mike (AKA Teifi), the creator of this level.
The map basically revolves around a central hill with a river flowing around one side. The objective is to reach the riverside terrorist camp on the lower side of the hill, and rescue the hostages. Players will be able to take any route through or around the hill, leaving plenty of freedom. Hopefully the map will create a feeling of tranquility of the jungle, but also the chaos of intersecting routes of play.











48 Hour Madness Unreal Deals
Sorry for the limited time-frame here - you've got about 12 hours left on the sale. GoGamer's
48 Hour Madnessis upon us once again and there are a few Unreal-Engine or related deals to consider:
- Unreal Tournament 3 PC - $9.90 US
- Painkiller Universe PC - $9.90 US
- Frontlines: Fuel of War PC - $7.90 US
- Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway 360 - $14.90 US
- Turning Point: Fall of Liberty 360/PS3 - $9.90 US
Now, while Painkiller isn't an Unreal Engine game, it is, of course, a product of the now Epic Games-owned developer People Can Fly. This version contains the original, Painkiller, as well as the expansion "Battle out of Hell" and the standalone sequel (originating from a mod team and not PCF), "Overdose". While the expansion is not as good as the original and the sequel is mediocre at best, the original is full of all-kinds-of-awesome if you're a fan of traditional first-person-shooters, crazy amounts of enemies on-screen, and a horror theme.
