    6 Comments You could say UTIII is something of an antique. A throwback to the days of endless, repetitive Deathmatches, it's a simple, lightning-fast shooter with few of the complexities of modern games. Read more

    All in all the game offers a solid shooter, the campaign can last a good while but players won't really wont to play through again, unless they wish to clean up some of the achievements. The multiplayer is strong and will consume a good few hours of peoples time, Its one of these games that you can pick up and play for 10 -20 minutes and lay it down for a while. The huge let down was the removal of modifications, these would've extended the life a little longer than it... Read more

    Probably, but so what? As good as Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, Frontlines: Fuel of War and Team Fortress 2 are, Unreal Tournament III is the most intense and ridiculous of the bunch. What it lacks in terms of bold innovation, it more than makes up for in terms of raw playability and refined execution, and Epic has come up trumps with a fine conversion. Read more

    So we were at Midway’s Gamers’ Day in Vegas and outside by the pool there were loads of 360s set up and running Unreal Tournament III, so we had a little go. And guess what? It plays exactly how you think it would – all about running around in circles strafing and shooting people in the head. Read more

    The Unreal Engine 3 has been utilized in a number of games over the past few years, so it's nice to see it actually put to use in an Unreal game for once! However, if you were expecting another Gears of War-style action game, then you're in for a bit of serious shock (and you're clearly not a follower of the Unreal Tournament series, either).

    This is a very disappointing title for me, dont get me wrong, the play is very smooth, it looks great but the problem lies in the missions, the map is very unclear, at times i just seemed to be taking on the whole enemy AI with no help from teammates and was constantly running back and forth trying to protect the nodes and destroy the enemies, sometime the same repetative 'stop them gaining control / attack and destroy' went on for an hour or more, only to lose the match...

    I have to agree with the guy below. You really should know if the game is out or not, ye someone here screwed up a bit it happens sometimes. I have bought from this site a few times and the service is top notch, next day delivery they are really fast. So next time check out other places and game sites to see if the games your after are out. Read more

    Fun: Unreal Tournament 3 is deathmatching the way it used to be. It's been so long since I played a game like this that I forgot they even exist. Let's get one thing straight right off the bat: UT3 is not Call of Duty; it is not Battlefield; it is not Halo, or Far Cry, or Rainbow Six. I'm a of many of those games, so please understand that I'm not denigrating the type of FPS that proliferates these days when I say Unreal Tournament 3 is very different, and all the more...
