UT2K3 Gone Gold -- 9:33 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Epic's Mark Rein made this post on the Infogrames forums indicating that Unreal Tournament 2003 went gold this morning. Of greatest interest (to me, anyway) is this blurb about Linux support:

The Linux installer is included on Disc 3 of the 3 CD set! We support both client and server for Linux. Unfortunately there's no mention of Linux on the box because we didn't know it would be done in time so please tell all your Linux gaming friends that UT2003 is ready for them!

Yep, Linux binaries out of the box! Pretty amazing. I'm rather surprised that their publisher let them do that. Epic's Steve Polge also made this follow-up post talking about things they changed as a result of feedback from the demo. Thanks Blue's News.

The Master comments: I have been playing a LOT of UT2K3 against bots since the demo release. I am VERY impressed. I'm still learning all the little tricks and techniques--this game is a LOT more intricate than anything in the id universe--but I am very impressed, and I intend to purchase this the first time it's on sale at Best Buy (no affiliation yadda yadda).
