Yep you read it right, 10 out of 10 for graphics but only 7.3 overall (even the site readers only give it an average of 7.0).
I'll still be getting it on Friday, will give my honest opinion over the weekend. Shame there won't ever be a demo released.

Yes, it's good. But it isn't great. I think such a mark reflects the growing market demand for games with more character, interactivity and depth.

Even Doom III is being built up as an atmospheric adventure, rather than n out and out blast-em-up, which is what that particualr vein of PC legend has been all about.

It's time Unreal evolved or got out of the market.

I've only played a little of it so far, but I like it a lot. The sci-fi setting makes a nice change from all those realistic WW2/Vietnam/some other war settings I've been used to for the past few months.

So far so good, I'm really enjoying it.

A damn fine game I might add, i've been playing all day and it's bloody fun. Sure it doesn't do anything groundbreaking in terms of game-play, but the FPS genre is dry in the area of new ideas, so that's to be expected.

The level design is great, the action intense and the sound is just as amazing as the graphics. Great game, FPS fans should enjoy it allot.

Yeah, but those fools at Gamespot complained because of U2¡¦s lack of multiplayer. UT2003, anyone?
