 Lack of multi-player on the same system but still fun. May 31, 2008
It was a pretty good deal at $30.99 for a PS3 game. As other reviewers say, it is all action. You shoot, run, die, and repeat. The graphics are nice and the variety of weapons/vehicles is a nice step away from Medal of Honor. I was hoping for multi-player/split screen to shoot bots with friends in the same room but strangely on a console system this was not added.
 Great Game! May 20, 2008

This is an awesome game, although if you wish to play multiplayer with your friends plan to do it online because the game does not support more than one controller. Otherwise it's one of the best I have ever played on any platform.
THE BEST SHOOTER FOR THE CONSOLES May 16, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This game is so amazing. If you like shooters that are fast paced and exciting, then get this game. The only downside is that throughout the whole game, even in the career, you feel like you are playing a multiplayer match. That's really not bad, because it is really frickin fun. Great fast paced shooter with lots of different modes and definitive online play. Perhaps one of the best parts about UT3 is the introduction of user-created content into the world of consoles. That's right pc gamers, mods! Now you'll never have to worry about running out of things to do in this game, just download a new map or game mode and enjoy. I definetely recommend everyone to buy this game
Unreal indeed May 14, 2008

I couldn't believe my eyes upon first popping in the blu ray into my PS3 ! The textures come to life on your TV screen. Couple amazing visuals with sick-tight control and you have Unreal Tournament 3. If your an old schooler like me and ate up the first UT then you'll quickly realize this game was made for you and me! The vehicles are too much to handle yet serve their purpose in the modes they are included in. The player models will blow your mind, each wire circuit and eyeball was designed with care. I want to thank MIDWAY for continued support of the unreal community...but mostly you CLIFFY B!!
A Different but More Exciting Approach to FPS!! May 14, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Finally! Awesome graphics and smooth movements of the Unreal Tournament series on the console! The graphics of this game is stunning. And the gameplay is fast, unique, and breath-taking.
It's interesting that we all seem to clinch onto the type of FPS that we're used to. So I can see why some people who started playing FPS on "realism" types such as Counter Strike or Call of Duty would be put off by the gameplay of UT3. Everything in UT3 happens so fast with rockets, laser beams (shock), bullets flying around so fast that everything might feel confusing and spammy to a new player. But in fact, UT3 is a very deep game. The movements of the game allow you to dodge the bullets coming your way while you blast your opponents with hitscan-type guns as well as anticipation-type weapons such as the rocket launcher and shock rifle.
IMHO, this is FPS at its FINEST!! Extremely powerful weapons coupled with unreal and fast movements allow for exciting crossfire between you and your opponents. The movements include dodging, wall dodging, double-jump, just to name a few. But once you have mastered them, you'll see that the gameplay of UT3 all makes sense. The chaos and confusion in the past become clear as now YOU become the one blasting rockets at newbies while you dodge away everything that comes your way. And when you see higher skilled players, BOOM! All the better as you engage in an exciting fight in the midst of the battle.
It is no secret that UT3 might have a steep learning curve compared to other games, but the excitement and possibilities that comes with it is unparalleled.
I am personally not a fan of "realism" type FPS games, fighting with grenades, shooting and hiding behind walls, etc. Of course, I understand that those games require strategic positioning and teamwork as oppose to just "camping" as some frustrated newbies say. But the entire flow is slow and too passive. In something like Search & Destroy where everyone has only one life. The risk is too high to take to be the aggressive side and it appears that most people choose a more passive approach. Waiting in a strategic position and fire anyone that comes. To me, that's not what excites me. The way that UT3 is designed, the more aggressive you are, the better chance of survival you have. And I like being rewarded as the more aggressive player. But make no mistake, UT3 requires great teamwork to operate.
Once you have tried CTF through clan matches, you'll understand. The amount of teamwork it takes to break through an opponents' defense and cover your flag carrier home takes tremendous teamwork. Same for TDM and Warfare.
For those of you who have never tried this type of FPS, give it a go! You will not be disappointed! This is one of the most exciting and unique type of FPS in our modern days! Give yourself some time to learn how to play through playing online with others. There's no need to "train" yourself offline or with other games. The best way to learn something is to play with others who know how to do it. When I was a newbie, I didn't find it embarrassing to be killed so many times online. But I get an adrenaline rush everytime I killed someone else. And before I knew it, I have mastered the game along the way.
See you on the UT3 servers!
