I haven't bought a PC game for ages, having not read any mags recently I wondered what sort of reviews UT2003 was getting, I will download the demo tonight. Have any of you played the demo - what are your opinions ?
I think my PC will also need a lot of upgrading to get the best out of this game - does anyone know the suggested minimum specs ??
Any comments welcome ....

It's a fun game, if you liked the origanal you'll love this, but its not my thing so I'm not bothered about getting it just yet. Great graphics as well.

Apparently the full version is far better than the demo. NOt trying to state the obvious though :) The maps are top notch and the guy I know who has it said he gets 15-20 fps more in the full version. Thats great news for me as my gf2 doesnt really manage more than 30 in the demo :)

It wasn't until playing the demo that I realised how great this is. Now if only I can find the funds for it...

Classic UT stuff! If you liked UT, you'll love this. Graphics, weapons, speed, everything has been ramped up.

The demo is great, it's got some deathmatch levels, CTF and Bombing Run modes too.

The full version will be a definate buy for me!
