Unreal Tournament Game Of The Year (Jewel Case) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you enjoy first-person shooters and have yet to experience the Unreal series, make sure you pick up the Unreal Tournament Game Of The Year Edition CD-ROM.This is easily one of the PC's best games.
Set in the future, the Liandri Mining Corporation sponsors a bloodthirsty tournament to determine who is the most powerful hunter in the universe.Across scores of diverse arenas - from derelict space stations to gothic cathedrals - combatants duke it out.
This 2 CD set comes packed with over 50 awesome maps, several gameplay mods, and some of the best multiplayer action available anywhere.On most modern computers, the framerate is solid.The additional OpenGL patch also enables mipmapping and other neat graphical effects.Most of the game's environments are comprised of a very low number of polygons, and yet appear extraordinarily rich and detailed.Even the music is great and quite listenable outside of the game!
Gameplay is simple with the typical WASD + Mouselook control scheme.Most of the game's weapons have dual-fire modes and some, such as the Shock Rifle, allow you to create deadly combo attacks.You'll pick up the controls in no time.
Plus, they throw in the amazingly comprehensive UnrealEd map editor so you can create your own maps!The designers of the game have clearly dedicated themselves to giving the Unreal community many tools to create new Unreal experiences.All over the Internet, there are tutorials, forums, and archives of great user-made content.From hundreds of additional maps to lengthy single-player campaigns replete with storylines, you can spend coutnless hours exploring all of the free additional content available on the Internet.
Unreal Tournament 2003 was the successor to this game and although it brought vastly improved graphics, I think that the original UT still has better gameplay and a more solid feel.Try it for yourself and see what you think.
The only real con to this game is that it takes a while to set it up properly, but this is due to the sheer amount of content that exists for it.Not only is there a patch to fix gameplay bugs, but there are also four excellent "bonus packs" of textures and maps you can download for free.The UMOD installer system, however, makes it very easy to install these and other add-ons.Simply click on the .umod file and UT will take care of the rest.When playing multiplayer, mods and maps you don't have are automatically downloaded for you.
I was a latecomer to the Unreal scene, but I instantly fell in love with this series after buying this title on impulse for ten bucks.It truly is one of the most fantastic games I've ever played, which says a lot considering I own dozens.For hours of non-stop enjoyment and entertaining, you simply cannot beat this game.Worth every penny and then some.

Unreal Tournament 2004 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I believe that this may be one of the most entertaining game I have ever played.
I'll try to break it down.

Graphics; 9.5: The graphics are outstanding, plain and simple. The game is 3 to 4 years old, so you can expect a bit of age, but that may also be a pro, as it's easier to run the game on Ultra graphics.

Sound; 9.5: Many say the announcer is annoying, but I say it is 2 things. First it adds a level to the gameplay, and second it can be hilarious. (the announcers voice can be changed to such sound types as "Sexy Female")

Gameplay; 10: Wow! The game can be classified as a 'hack-and-slash' but it doesn't take away from the expierence. A good selection of well-balanced vehicles help along the slow bits. An amazing range of original weaponry further enhances the gamplay.

Storyline; 4.5: This game is certainly not for those who wish for a deep, complex story behind the game. I can sum it up right now. In the future, aliens take over the earth and throw the humans into a universal gladiator ring, where they fight to the death with other prisoners from across the universe. Storyline in one sentence. =3

Overall; 9.9: I love this game. It's a great game for multiplayer, and you could play it by yourself for hours too. Way worth the price.
