It's easy to dismiss Unreal Tournament 3 as a relic from a bygone time in gaming history, but as you dig deeper into the levels, the weapons, and the vehicles, you'll see just how many fine tweaks and adjustments Epic has made to the game. That's just on the PC. On the PS3, Epic has delivered a game with great performance that embraces the things that make PC gaming great and that creates a completely open system for new content. Well, eventually.
There is something to be said for sticking to a formula that works and continuing to make it better, and with the purchase of Unreal Tournament 3 you know you'll be enjoying new content and game types for a very long time. Sure, gamers used to the older versions may be taken aback by some of the changes, but stick with it. You'll find a fast, fun, and slightly insane competitive first-person shooter with a well-designed new game type in Warfare.
What a difference a hoverboard makes.
Opinion is divided on this one for sure! Is motion blur good for gaming? Why do developers include it?
I hate any game that has motion blur and the first thing I do is switch off the motion blur in games. It just makes me nauseous.
I agree with Alex here, many implementations are terrible but when it is done right it improves the experience.

“In all seriousness though, I feel like DOOM’s success will be measured by how much the game has to offer. Graphically it’s looking spectacular, and I’m sure the latest multiplayer trailer caught all of our attention. Personally, the game is beginning to remind me of those late nights playing Unreal Tournament 3, which is totally a good thing. This, in addition to the promise of user-generated content, is making DOOM look like the best first-person shooter I’ve seen in ages.”
The campaign looks brilliant, like a true nostalgia trip to the original DOOM titles of old! The multiplayer equally looks like a trip down memory lane to fast-paced and frantic arena games a-la Quake, and honestly the MP REALLY makes me want to the get game at launch to capitalise on the hype. Problem is I'm not overly fussed with multiplayer typically in games, they can get weary after a while, and buying a game solely for its MP is risky - especially on console - as it's heavily dependant on the community!
Rock to my left, hard place to my right..
EDIT: On the MP note, does anyone know if it'll have bots available, similar to Unreal Tournament 3? I still give that a quick play time to time with bots (and all the mad mutators).
I’m exactly the same, usually multiplayer games are of no interest to me. But DOOM has sparked my curiosity, especially as someone who used to enjoy multiplayer first person shooters like Quake/Unreal. Totally understand your concerns about it being heavily dependant on the community, too. Which is just another reason they should include bots, in case the numbers need to be made up. I’m hoping the community will be good, considering the creative freedoms they’re handing over with the SnapMap thing.
Its basically a "console" ahead, in terms of graphics, of another shooter called Homefront thats getting ready to release. LOL
Great selections as always and they are...
Final Fantasy
Metal Gear Solid
Super Smash Bros.
Crypt of the Necrodancer
Unreal Tournament
Advance Wars
Payday 2
all in all a very good review they came up with some good points but single player is very good if you're new to this game and if you're a pro don't play it at all
You should pick this game up...its retarded fun. Recommend the mouse and keyboard!
I love this game.
I feel em. I loved PC gaming, FPS the most. Sh1t costs way to much now. I'd have to spend 1k at least to make a good rig, no thanks. They need to realize that, do not push it so far. When 95% of comps can't run the game, you only have 5% available to buy your game. And if you're lucky 1% will buy it, forget PC's at least for me.
I have it for the PS3. I've only played the single player campaign, which is pretty long. The only problem I have is that my squad A.I. seems downright retarded compared to the enemy A.I.. The enemies are pretty smart and work strategically while my guys all break off and leave our bases open for attack.
