What can a bunch of amateurs turn Unreal Tournament 3 into? The just-completed Make Something Unreal contest offered money in order to find some answers. One is the shot top this post, but that wasn't the winner.

Top honors went to a mod called The Haunted, a horror take on UT3, developed by a six-man crew and set for release as a standalone game. (Check out the official trailer.)

I suppose at some point this will cease to be news, but the franchises that made LAN gaming great continue to turn their back on it, providing a long slow obituary for the service. Command & Conquer is the latest.
