Unreal Tournament III (3) (2007)

Words cannot describe how amazed I am at this game. The first thing you will notice are the graphics, the Unreal engine is an amazing thing. The lighting effects are some of the best I have ever seen. It does not do a Halo and just blind you.

But as most gamers will tell you, graphics do not make a game, it is the gameplay. This is typical UT, but the weapons feel more balanced. For a console FPS the controls are great and I have not had the framerate stutter once!

My favourite thing about the game is that you can play dead, making it seem asif you are a dead body. I have had many a fun moment get people from behind like this!

Its also has all the downloadable content released for ps3 and pc and loads of bonus extras making it an even better game

However, if you do not like FPS games, i doubt that this game will change your mind. If you are in this situation rent it, however if you do like them what are you waiting for? Ill see you online :)

You know what, so what if it doesnt have a true campaign mode or no real story. The developers have gone for a risk by placing these bot matches in here instead of a campaign mode. This gives the game a new angle instead of the run-of-the-mill story. It prepares you well for what you are about to be hit by online. The graphics look stunning on or off of an HDTV and theres so much freedom within each level. They are huge!!!!! Ignore the slating of the "story" mode as youll need the practice for online, trust me.

Gameplay hasnt changed much since the original UT in 1999, apart from vechiles, which were added in UT 2004 (came out in 2003).

The game might seem cool and a novelty at first, but after a few days or a week, you will realise that it's a good thing that the industry has moved on to a more tactical based approach rather than just running and blasting everything that moves. Story is pretty much non-existant, yep they actually tried to make a story out of capture the flag. Overall Gears 2 has better graphics, but this still looks better than the original Gears and actually has better textures than both Gears titles on the smaller maps.

Still a decent game, but we're not in 1999 anymore, things have changed. If you must get this game, get the PC version, or if you don't have a half decent machine get the PS3 version. Both versions have free mods to download and the tools to create your own.

I'd give the 360 version around 7.0 out of 10

Well this is the 1st time ive played UT and it was not what i had hoped for. Felt dated and got repetitive very quickly. As said in other reviews the single player is basicly training for the MP so if your not on Live defently avoid this game.
There is much better fps out there in my opinion but if your a die hard fps fan your proberly enjoy this.
