DESCRIPTION
Epic Games' competitive online shooter makes its PlayStation 3 debut with Unreal Tournament 3. Players once again control a futuristic soldier who must battle an assortment of rivals in multiple game modes. The first-person shooter, designed with the developer's celebrated Unreal Engine 3 technology, includes both offline and online support. High-powered weapons include the long-range Link Gun and the close-range Bio Rifle, with many returning favorites upgraded with new features. Also returning are many of the same characters from previous Unreal Tournament games, each possessing new looks, personalities, and abilities. Standard game types include Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, and more. Vehicle combat is also available with two sets of technologically advanced transports, each varying in size, speed, and capabilities, from the enormous Leviathan to the sleek Hoverboard. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

“I finally completed Unreal Tournament III's campaign mode (which ironically doesn't even seem like a campaign). Of course insane was annoying at times, especially when you have knuckleheads for AI that can't work together for crap. I can't believe it took Epic Games almost 4 years to release this game. Most of the maps are remakes of classic maps that have just been adjusted for the change in graphics. They really went overboard balancing the weapons to the point where it seems like every useful gun fires only 1 bullet every 5 seconds, slowing down gameplay. It doesn't help that I play on godlike either, with how slow the guns shoot if I miss my first shot I'm dead. Simple.
There is absolutely no story, campaign is just a bunches of matches loosely strung together with some lines of dialog or even a *gasp* cutscene popping up once every blue moon. Some planet gets attacked, the survivors go after their would be killers, but get stuck in some other campaign as mercenaries for whatever reason, but ultimately end up going after the bad guys and killing them. That's it? It took Epic Games like 4 years and all they came up with was this? I know its unreal tournament, but damn that's lame. Even the completely unneccessary explainations for why the matches are played this way and to give some unreal background are laughably ridiculous. They seriously try to explain why they play capture the flag with respawners instead of just killing the enemy, while at the same time leaving so many holes in the story. I never laughed so hard in my life at a game trying to seriously explain itself.
Still, its a solid game that's worth trying out for the multiplayer.”

“Solid game, but the online play isn't good. Has nothing to do with the game itself, there just aren't enough people playing to make it that much fun. A lot of the greatness of UT2004 on PC, for me, came from massive games, which just doesn't work with the console (can only have a limited number of players). However, it was well worth the $10 I spent on it (for a new copy).”

“The campaign mode and gameplay doesn't really add up, but that is to be expected since the game is designed after old-school FPS online play. It is really fast-paced and fun, the only fault I found is that it's campaign mode struggled to relate to gameplay mechanics (such as how Respawners exist). The logic really took away from the campaign, but if you were to based the game soley on online multiplayer, I'd recommend it, especially since it includes new match types.”
