The tournament reaches the new generation of consoles.
What surprised me about this game was the option of local multiplayer, considering how many games this generation have left that option out; especially with the great graphics this game showcases. There are plenty of modes for both on-line and local, and, if you're wondering if the modes are worthwhile off-line: yes, they are because this game offers bots. While the majority of shoots that are on consoles only offer local multiplayer with, maybe, up to four friends, this game offers two players to play co-op or competitively with or without bots.
While the game outshines what most FPS this generation have to offer, it does have its flaws. The single player campaign is little more than dull dialogue giving reasons behind each match; it makes me think that they took time to write out a somewhat good script for Gears of War and got lazy with it for this game. So, what you see in single player you will see the exact same thing in multiplayer.
Unlike the PC version or the PS3 version, this version of the game does not offer mods or custom maps. Also, PS3 users can verse PC users, but 360 users can only verse, you guessed it, 360 users, which is somewhat odd, considering Windows is owned by MS, but that's besides the point.
All in all, this game is fun, but if you've played or own Unreal Tournament 2k4, expect very little more than better graphics. If you're looking for a good single player game, look somewhere else. The focus on this game is mainly multiplayer and that is where it shines.
