They said that about Unreal Tourmament 3 and I was fine against most people using a keyboard and mouse.

I'm really interested.

No other developer for consoles have yet to deliver true cross platform gameplay. Usually it is just scoreboards or what not. I hope this follows through, I really do.

Will be interested to see how this is done. The only way to ensure 'fair play' is to remove all moddabilty from the PC versions. That won't go down well with the PC'ers though. They really hate restrictive games like this at the moment, of course blaming consoles in the process.

Actually, Final Fantasy 11 on PC/PS2/360, Phantasy Star Universe on PC/PS2 and Shadowrun on PC/360. :smileytongue:

 

But this'll be nice too. :smileyhappy:

 Don't PC gamers usually have the option to host their own servers? If so, they could probably just make their own lobbies for mod use.

Or you could allow mods to work on the PS3 too. UT3 had PS3 mods that for the most part were the same as PC mods just slightly different in the way the files were handled.
