UT and Q3 came out roughly the same time, they are always compared, just like Starcraft and TA and C&C, or Doom & Hexen & Quake.

Now UT2003, its almost the same gameplay as UT (except no assault... those bastards), so just because the graphic engine is a little better, dosn't mean it interfers in the comparison. Q3 had superior graphics over UT, now UT2003 dominates Q3 in that arena too. Looks like that B.F.G wont be so useful anymore, will it Johnny?

I have been a die-hard Unreal fanatic since the first game came out, so UT series for me of course. :nod:

As an aside, Epic are looking to provide the same after-publisher support they did for UT. That means free bonus packs including new maps and models. There's also specualtion that the much loved assault mode (removed from UT2K3 but present in UT) will make a comeback. Anything that encourages online teamwork is ok in my book.

vadar_1, whilst PhReAk is right about that part, there's one other place it says it. If you go to the details menu (graphical) and turn everything to full, you'll hear it said - and with good reason. The game does need a good computer.

Stunaep - Those levels you quoted are only in 2003, the original UT goes up to Monster Kill... and I think it missed out Mega Kill along the way.

Ten of Twelve - to be fair, UT and UT2003 are separate games... it's not entirely fair to judge ;)

Well, that explains, why Monster Kill is the highest I ever got. :D

Yes they are separate games but...UT 2003 sure sometimes feels  just like UT with better graphix. Oh c'mon, it's a nonsensical shooter, it's not that different.

I know I know, but you could get people (like me) who felt Q3 was better than UT. But UT2003 is better than Q3. So in the end I voted for UT.

But that's like comparing Duke Nukem to Doom. It's unfair!

...Although Duke Nukem would kick Doom's ass even with worse graphics.

Ah, I remember that flying red sphere guy! :D

If they add in that mutated pig dude I might get the game just for that; that fellow had me laughing so hard the first time I saw him and his behavior... :D :D

They said themselves that it wasn't a multiplayer game really. In this case, I'm not complaining.

The Cyberdemon one's pretty obviously fake, too, in fact more so than the other one- you can't get that look without a raytracer, and it's not a desirable one at any rate. Fact, I can name the prog it was done in- those cheap flame effects are all too familiar...:D
Webpage. Yes.

Besides - the HUDs of both shots are entirely different from the HUD featured in the leaked Alpha...
