UT2K7 Released first on PS3 or PC on the Atari Forums (thanks Frans and GameGossip) has word from Epic that Unreal Tournament 2007 will be released on PCs before consoles, and that there are plans to precede the game's release with a demo:

PC first. We're not scheduled to be a ps3 launch title, not certain where those news sites are getting that from. There will be a pre-release demo (on the PC at least).

Higher costs requires higher demand if prices are to remain the same. I don't know the figures, but if the gaming market is not expanding as fast as costs are rising (and inflation is taken into account) then of course costs are going to go up.

Yes, but if higher prices lead to less people buying and resorting to piracy then it completely defeats the point. The problem with lack of sales is that with most games there is no love in their production, they are just pop-games designed to make profit, chucked out the door regardless of their state as long as they make money - that's why games like Half-Life 2 and Civ4 stand out, as the developers go above and beyond. Games don't have to have a new engine to sell, in fact I'd rather games used simpler graphics and more time was spent producing better gameplay.
