Alot of FPS fans will poo-poo UT3 since during the period since it's inception shooter games have become a little more duck and cover. But Unreal 3 is a nice change of pace with an all-out frag-fest with a nice amount of Wes Craven-esque gore. The campaign mode is OK but feels thrown together and may as well be training for the real sweet spot of the game: Multiplayer.

Not much strategy to this one, but Nobunaga's Ambition can wait 'till after you have wiped off your own drool.
