First, the good news: the PlayStation 3 version of the massive Unreal Tournament III "Titan Pack" DLC has gone up ahead of schedule. It was recently delayed until a March 19 release, but it looks as if certification didn't take as long as expected.
Unfortunately, the patch is missing some of the original content. CVG reports that the Titan Mutator and maps are not included, but will be released via a second patch in the near future. We've also received word that some of you are having issues with being kicked off of the PlayStation Network, but there's no telling how widespread the problem is yet.
Additionally, last week's UTIII Steam promotion was a smashing success, which means that the 40% off Unreal Tournament III Black sale is going to continue through Sunday, March 22. Also, an encore Free Weekend of play is starting up this Friday.
A word of warning: do not expect Steam downloads to be running at full speed with so many people hitting the servers at once. Set your expectations accordingly, please.

PS3 owners should scoop this patch up considering that it adds trophy support as well as an added two player split screen mode. Sweet stuff.
If I take it down to a lab I get around 8-10 MB/s, which is nice when I want to re-download my steam folder.
But early is always nice.
