Outstanding game. Must own.
UT3 is of corse the newist installment in the UT collection and this time round everything seems to have been improved ten fold.
The story sucks. Im sorry but it does, how could Epic Games take away the Tournament style story lines and replace it with some crappy GoW wannabe? anyway, thay have also made this game look just like GoW and in my books thats not good! as I really dont like GoW. However this game is still amazing, if you can block out the stupid story line and just imagen the game still as its classic Tournament style then you cant go wrong. Oh dont worry all of the matches that you fight in are just like the other UT games they (thank god) havent changed that.
Visuals are simply amazing, I have (like every game I own) been playing this at 100% max settings and its amazing, simply some of the best visuals I have ever seen in a game (Except Crysis) They have also added cut scenes into the game to cut it into different chapters and help you understand more about its terrible story, I simply watched them as I had never seen them before and plus the scenes where so well done and the visuals are just so outstanding that you will find yourself simply unable to skip the scenes.
Weapons in this game (like all UT games) are awesome and fantastic to use, there are all of our faverouts back such as the Sniper Rifle, Link gun, Flak cannon and Rocket Launcher all of witch have a new look and skin to them. You can still drive about in many different types of vehicles including the Manta, Raptor, Goliath and Laviathon plus heeps of new and awesome vehicles. New skins also make these look amazing and fresh.
In addition to the Story mode you have online play, very good indeed. Coop story mode to play with your friends via LAN (I am not sure if you can play over the net on story mode, this is somthing I have yet to try) and the best of all, Instant Action.
There is 1 last think that I didnt like about this game and that was the fact that they took the game mode Assult out of the game. Its a shame as this is my best game mode to play, I hope that they can made this as an addon in some way or intergrate it into the next UT game.
Overall this game gets 10/10 for its amazing vehicles, visuals, weapons and of corse, have the title Unreal Tournament.
