Unreal Tournament III

[QueenB]

Anyone here play any of the Unreal series? I only just picked up UTIII for the 360 and I love it, split screen online is the best, reminds me of Halo but the weapons are easier/more fun to use. I do have UT2004 for PC but, I've never played it (got it free with computer), I think I might give it a go.

Splitscreen is always good lol .

I'd never played any of the UT games until UT3 on 360. Campaign was cool, although I did find it quite repetative and not much different to online. Except of course for nodes, but I officially don't like node levels lol.

No nodes weren't my favourite either. After a couple of missions, it was often a deciding factor on whether I continued playing or not, or go back to it later. If it was a node, 90% of the time the 360 went off lol.

Lol yeah .

What do you think of the online by the way?
Tried Dual gamemode the other day for the first time. And wow is that weird :s.

the UT games have the best bots of any game. I remember UT2003 - I even have the original UT for the pc - I remember re-creating the levels from goldeneye on the N64 just to play them with the UT engine - its been ages since ive played any of them though...

[Bex]

That sounds cool, how did you do that?
All this talk about it makes me want to play it on the PC too. If only to see if I can play it on the PC lol .

lol - there was a program that came with the original ut game called unrealed - i think you can still get it - its pretty difficult to use at first, though I'm sure if you just check for 'unreal <version> maps' on google you will get loads of them!

Dual is definitely weird but, it's just so different to what Im used to so it's weird for that reason I think :P.

I still havent tried UT2004, there's no achievement points in it for me so I doubt I will .

[Bex]

Achievement..............no won't say it, it's a bannable offence on some sites, but, it begins with w and I'm one too (and achievement w )

Yeah, different is definitely the word. However it's interesting at the same time. Personally I get bored of waiting and is why I don't play gears often, no respawn :\.


Thanks for the info localhost, I'll have a look on google . Know I've got the game somewhere so I'm halfway there .

Anyone up for a game of UT3 on the 360 today? Ive bored myself with Halo 3 and I fancy a game of unreal. Its the respawn time I think, you're right there Bex, its a great game to just pick up and play, less delays when you commit suicide lol.
