    Unreal Tournament III is about pure adrenalin and blazing reflexes and nothing can touch UT3 for experiencing both in classic shooter fashion online or going solo.

    It's an old school shooter more closely related to "Quake" than "Call of Duty 4," with fast-paced explosion heavy action, a sci-fi theme to the levels and the weapons and a bunch of fun powerups like shields and damage amplifiers. In other words, it's quintessentially an Unreal Tournament game.

    It's decidedly old-school, but if instant-gratification action is what you're after, don't hesitate to pick up the 360 version of UTIII.

    Awesome game, best futuristic shooter on 360, and very faithful to the UT series! Includes splitscreen multiplayer, bot support, an upgrade from the tournament style singleplayer to a campaign, updated original UT maps as well as new ones, and the warfare mode is awesome!… Expand

    Same game with a 3 after it. It's getting kinda tired and it's done much better on the PC than on the 360. Bit of a useless port.

    After being devoted to the Unreal Tournament franchise... I have never been so disappointed in my life. You'd think that the people at EA would try to keep what is brilliant about ut2004... Instead, they trashed it completely and created Gears of War II: The Retread. Everyone in the Unreal Tournament community that plays online has by now abandoned this lackluster spoilage of one of the greatest PC first person shooters of all time. I know, because for five weeks after the release, no one was on the ut2004 online games. Now? Every single last one of them has returned, and the buzz is... when EA makes ut2004 v2... then they'll come back.… Expand
