From the official UT forum, regarding split screen coop on the ps3 version:
"We're aware that some of our customers wanted split screen for the PS3 version of UT3. We hear you and will evaluate the feature for possible future updates to UT3."
We'll have to wait and see what Midway and the unreal team has in store for ps3 gamers.
Opinion is divided on this one for sure! Is motion blur good for gaming? Why do developers include it?
I hate any game that has motion blur and the first thing I do is switch off the motion blur in games. It just makes me nauseous.
I agree with Alex here, many implementations are terrible but when it is done right it improves the experience.

“In all seriousness though, I feel like DOOM’s success will be measured by how much the game has to offer. Graphically it’s looking spectacular, and I’m sure the latest multiplayer trailer caught all of our attention. Personally, the game is beginning to remind me of those late nights playing Unreal Tournament 3, which is totally a good thing. This, in addition to the promise of user-generated content, is making DOOM look like the best first-person shooter I’ve seen in ages.”
The campaign looks brilliant, like a true nostalgia trip to the original DOOM titles of old! The multiplayer equally looks like a trip down memory lane to fast-paced and frantic arena games a-la Quake, and honestly the MP REALLY makes me want to the get game at launch to capitalise on the hype. Problem is I'm not overly fussed with multiplayer typically in games, they can get weary after a while, and buying a game solely for its MP is risky - especially on console - as it's heavily dependant on the community!
Rock to my left, hard place to my right..
EDIT: On the MP note, does anyone know if it'll have bots available, similar to Unreal Tournament 3? I still give that a quick play time to time with bots (and all the mad mutators).
I’m exactly the same, usually multiplayer games are of no interest to me. But DOOM has sparked my curiosity, especially as someone who used to enjoy multiplayer first person shooters like Quake/Unreal. Totally understand your concerns about it being heavily dependant on the community, too. Which is just another reason they should include bots, in case the numbers need to be made up. I’m hoping the community will be good, considering the creative freedoms they’re handing over with the SnapMap thing.
Its basically a "console" ahead, in terms of graphics, of another shooter called Homefront thats getting ready to release. LOL
Great selections as always and they are...
Final Fantasy
Metal Gear Solid
Super Smash Bros.
Crypt of the Necrodancer
Unreal Tournament
Advance Wars
Payday 2
They acually listen to what costumers and actually fix it. Almost unheard of.
Weird...it didn't include it?
Well this will be a great add I can't wait to have it. There are some games out on the market and some have co-op and some do not and it is great to see that this game will get it soon. Other then that I am liking UTIII a lot.
I am begining to think the ps3 can't handle split screen. This is not the first time i am hearing split screen may come in future update. I loved motorstorm but i ended up trading it in because there was no multiplayer value for me online was lame cus everyone was using the boost exploit and no split screen. Wanted to get formula 1 but passed for same reason and COD4 on ps3 didnt have split screen. Don't knw if its the ps3 that can't handle it but damn sony needs to give us split screen
I knew my comment would be very controlversial but i had to speak my mind. COD4 has no split screen online on ps3 and motorstorm and F1 had no split screen either. Am pretty sure prologue has no split screen hopefully GT5 will have but am gonna buy that regardless cus i hardly played split screen with that on ps2 anyway. But my point is resistance used 10% of ps3 power did the remainng 90% go into split screen. Warhawk is a great game i play it everyday but its not the most beautiful game out there when we start pushing the graphics level on ps3 we seem to have no split screen. Personally i never thought COD4 graphics were that great maybe 360 graphics were better cus i played it for ps3 so i dunno KZ2 had way better graphics IMO but am sure when KZ2 comes out, it will lack coop or split screen. Hopefully it dosent cus i want split screen
If they can somehow manage to slap splitscreen then I'll make sure to go out and buy the game tomorrow [If there is any available ;(]
