I played Unreal a while ago.

I was not impressed. The graphics? Choppy as heck. I could be walking, but it looked like I was sliding around.

The multiplayer? Completely devoid of skill. All you do is control two bases. All the weapons are the same; the one weapon that is good (TOO good), is the tag rifle. You charge it up, and it nukes a full room. In halo, you could dodge stuff. In Halo 2, you could dodge stuff. In Unreal, you just shoot.

They tried to make Unreal "cool" by making it violent; like, people's organs spray, they curse AAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL the time, and the really big guns appeal to many gamers. Many launchers, guns that fire bright shiny explosions that decapitate a few people, etc.

I cannot have 1 good battle without the graphics collapsing. The music is the equivalent of a child's jack in the box. Except with bloody heads soaring through the air.

In Halo 1, Bungie focuses less on bloody content and more on gameplay, story, balance, etc. Unreal is all about how red you can make the map.
There are around 5 unreal games...but the graphics are left unchanged, they made bloodier weapons, etc. Some people need to realize that gory games aren't always the better games.

OOOOk? I still love UT 2004 and cant wait to see what UT 2007 will look on the 360. I have seen screenshots and im telling you, its the best looking 360 game I have seen. This is what im talking about. BTW, that is IN game.

So.... *sniff*..... true...... yet that jackass, Jack Thompson still thinks he can screw up our fun by blaming halo for the sniper incident in the states. What a lowlife, well I guess hes doing his job by trying to destroy all of the really popular game developers.

Yea, I agree. I played Unreal multiplayer and it was not very good at all. It was kinda boring and repetitive to me.

Does it have a storyline? I hope not!

elitist peices of crap...

anywase, unreal rules. maybe not as much as halo1, but it still does. and its not 1/1000000 behind halo1. i find championship2 to be a lot of fun. you have far more mobility in unreal than in halo, and thats a plus. its a deep and fun shooter, moreso than what we can say about halo2...

All I know is, I played Unreal Tournament 2004 and Unreal Championship, and both of them blew hardcore. I also bought Unreal II for Xbox, and it was the worst buy of my life. I don't understand the appeal for the games. The games don't even seem to use their own engine as well as other games.
