    Epic is back with a great shooter

    I would like to start off by saying that I really respect Epic Games when it comes to producing value for money games for all of us. They are amongst a small group of developers that really put their heart and soul into everything they release and it shows with Unreal Tournament 3.

    UT3 is all about action packed, fast combat with jaw dropping visuals and killer sound to boot. The visuals in UT3 are fantastic and the game runs at a blistering framerate with no slowdown to be found even in the heaviest of battles.

    From the character models to the stunning battle grounds, UT3 looks the part from all angles. The weapons although not realistic feel great and are so accurate that every other developer (besides Activision) should study this game and take notes on how to make a first person shooter.

    Unreal Tournament has never been known for its story and UT3 is no exception. The story is shocking, you will find yourself skipping the majority of this as I did, it just does not have any weight at all, pity.

    Where UT3 shines is in its gameplay and more specifically in Multiplayer! Multiplayer action is fantastic. Once you find yourself a good ping and a good group of people online, you will have a blast. There are a heap of multiplayer modes to choose from but from what I have played it looks like team deathmatch is the most popular.

    The sound in UT3 is very good although the comments made by other players like “yeah, take that!” do get a little annoying after a while.

    If you’re after a shooter that is hardcore in nature but easy to pick up and play, this is the game for you.

    Gameplay = 8.5
    Visuals = 8.5
    Sound = 7.5
    Game Now Score = 8.3/10

      Logical, samey, and fun, but play it on the PC over consoles 0

      Unreal Tournament III(Xbox 360) by infestedandy on July 22, 2009

      Since 1999 Unreal Tournament has influenced the first-person shooter market with its twitch and adrenaline fueled gameplay. Each follow-up has spawned significant changes without actually overhauling the system gamers have become associated with over the years; Unreal Tournament 3 is no exception.  Lets drive toward the walking laser octopus.  Fast, furious, and full of gratuitous gore Unreal demonstrates its power best when there are numerous bodies present, preferably human-controlled. But ...

      Epic's shooter makes its way to the 360, but is it worth it? 0

      Unreal Tournament III(Xbox 360) by senior_waffles on July 21, 2008

      Unreal Tournament III was originally released in the fall of last year for the PC and PS3. Now, UT3 graces the Xbox 360 with its fast and furious gameplay, but is it worth shelling out $60 dollars for? UT3 for Xbox 360 comes with all the downloadable content available for the PS3 and PC versions of the game along with 2 new characters, 5 exclusive maps, split-screen multiplayer and Online Co-Op via Xbox Live. UT3 offers multiple modes and options to choose from when you first boot up the game. ...
