    I loved Unreal Tournament, it was epic and breath-taking, beautifully balanced and extremely violent. This game however shames the usually trusted brand. It feels so empty. Small maps that are randomly unsymetric, characters with no "character" and riddiculous acrobatics and adrenaline power-ups that look all fancy but seemso useless.

    A truly dark day for Unreal Championship and Unreal Tournament fans everywhere. This game is truly an insult to its shining predecessors. Uninspired level design, ridiculously shallow combat, poorly designed gametypes, and bizzare departures from the universe as it has existed in the myriad of predating games all add up to one of the most disappointing gaming experiences one could imagine A truly dark day for Unreal Championship and Unreal Tournament fans everywhere.

    This isn't merely an evolution of the franchise -- this is Unreal with the dial turned up to 11.

    An ambitious and largely successful attempt to meld the accuracy of traditional firstperson battling with the extra spatial agility and awareness afforded by thirdperson movement. It does feel slightly overdone, but not to the point of obscuring its offering of intensity and flighty action. [May 2005, p.90]

    If you want something fresh, with almost endless replay value (so long as you have Live or some friends nearby) then I can do nothing but strongly recommend this title.
