Summary: The best first person shooter ever!
Review: If you want action, gore, multiplayer, and alot of fun. Unreal Tournament has it all. With alot of action and plenty of games to choose, you can play all day if you have to. Multiplayer is easy to get on, the AI is mean and deadly, the graphics are outstanding, and the game is insanely addictive. With all new weopons and incredable levels, you will never get tired of Unreal Tornament. Buy it now and have fun.

But let me warn you, the game might be a little fustrating to install.

Summary: And I thought the First-Person-Shooter was dead. Not!
Review: After playing Doom, Quake, and all the clones, I was certain the First-Person-Shooter was dead. Not so, I must admit. This game is absolutely wonderful. Great weapons, extraordinary level design, beautifully detailed graphics, and multiple game features make this game one of the best of all time.

The Assault mode, which pits you against another team, bots or humans, is the pinnacle of this game. You join a team of several players and have specific goals to accomplish. In the first Assault map, you must infiltrate a boat sitting in a harbor, blow up the main power plant within the boat, then make your way to the top of the boat and push a button that will turn the ship's guns and blow up a gate to let you out. The other team has five minutes to hold you off. If you succeed in reaching your goals, you then become the defending team and have to keep the attacking team from reaching the same goal in less time than it took you and your team to do it.

Classic deathmatch and Capture the Flag are also included, with several maps included. You also have a mode called "Domination" where you must dominate certain locations of the map. The more locations you control, the higher your team score goes. The first team to 100 wins.

Move over Quake 3 and all you other clones. Unreal Tournament is the new standard.

Summary: Real
Review: Released at the same time as the similar 'Quake 3', everybody was expecting this to be terrible. The original 'Unreal' was very nice to look at, but not much fun to play, and 'Tournament' seemed to be a rush-released attempt at stealing some of 'Quake 3's multiplayer-only thunder. Surprisingly, it's none of those things - it looks wonderful, and has some nice music, but best of all it's extremely good fun to play. Even if you don't play against real people (something I can't do, as it's impractical in the UK), the single-player mode is worth the price of the game alone. The AI, although still recognisably artificial, is balanced superbly - your AI team-mates are good enough to fight for themselves, whilst your opponents use varied strategies and aren't flawlessly perfect. The more advanced bots are inhumanly good, but still mortal, which is a nice touch.

There isn't really much to choose between this and 'Quake 3' - 'Tournament' is more varied, with five different game types ('Domination', which is vaguely similar to the video game from 'Never Say Never Again', is a particularly good one), but the weapon types seem weedier than those in 'Quake 3', and the latter game has more of a following.

As with 'Unreal', the game is technically stunning - it looks amazing, has some cheesy, fun music, and runs quickly on a normal machine (a Celeron 300A with a Voodoo3 is more than enough). Best of all, they got it pretty much right first time - given that 'Unreal' was released half-finished, the only patch so far is a small download, and fixes a few minor bugs.

Summary: The only FPS wrth buying since Half life
Review: After buying half life at xmas 1998- i searched the games market for another FPS worth purchasing. After mixed reviews i bought Opposing Force and later regretted it and then decided that i would buy either QIII or UT. I went for UT and i believe it was the right choice. The depth of this game is amazing, the detail is fantastic and the maps are varied and distinct. UT reeks of pure class. The CTF, Assult, Domination and LMS mods are the icing on an already brilliant cake! Superb

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The new definition of FPS
Review: Unreal Tournament is the new model for what a FPS should be. The graphics are great, the sound is amazing, the level design is absolutely top notch and very creative. Perhaps the best part of Unreal Tournament is the number of options that you have out of the box. As your skills improve, the game can continue to challenge you on single player with adjustable AI. Of course the multiplayer is where the game truly shines. Getting online is simple, so you will be fragging your friends in no time. If you like this type of game and have not played it yet, you are missing one of the best games to come out in recent years.

Rating: 5 stars

END

Summary: My guilty pleasure...
Review: Quake 3 may be a bit better for solo deathmatches... that's a matter of opinion. But for team play and wacked environments, UT is the bomb.

Where this game really shines is in team play, particularly capture the flag and assault. It's wicked fun with stunning visuals... a real adrenalin rush.

I just wish I was actually good at it...

Summary: You'll grin.
Review: Buy the game. Thats all i really have to say. Take my word for it, once you sit down with this, you'll find yourself either an estatic hardcore fragger or a "sophisticated" gamer, grinning ear to ear despite telling yourself you hate these bloodfest games. Its just that fun. And yes, the graphics are second to none, and yes, to get the full effect, i suppose to you need some pretty heavy duty hardware, i run it on a properly memory/cache tuned PII 450, 128mb RAM, w/a 16mb Velocity 4400 and a 12mb VooDoo2 and noticed no slowdown at all. But this game ain't just eye candy...Internet play is *nice*, even on my hokey 56k modem. You'll be begging your friends to get the game too. You get an excellent single player slaughterhouse game (great for relieving office stress!), and get a few buddies in the game plus a comm program like Roger Wilco? Get ready for some pure vanilla, special ops style tail whuppin'.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Game EVER!
Review: If you like shoot em up and blow em uo games you should like this tile as much as I do. With other games out like Quake 3 and Soldier of Fortune this might be over looked. This game rocks! and ALL you hardcore gamers out there should take a look and see what you have been missing. THIS IS A MUST BUY!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good, but many MAJOR problems
Review: Pro: Awesome gameplay modes: Dm is still fun, but CTF is perfect for beginners and Assault is something every FPS should have. Very pretty graphics: They sure do look good, especially the water. Great Hi-res textures too. Unique maps: Underwater, moving trains, castles, floating in space. You name it, UT can do it. Good Server Browser: Not as good as gamespy but very, very close. Much better than Q3A's.

Con: Unbalanced: Some maps and weapons are way too unbalanced and give the advantage to one side. Pathetic Renderer: Even on a high end P3 Coppermine or Athlon with a GeForce, the graphics are extremely sluggish. The only mode in which it works well is Glide. Net Code Sucks: Come on. You can do better than this!. Expect lag on all but the fastest connections.

All in all, a good game that has its flaws, but remains enjoyable nonetheless.
