One year after its release on the PlayStation 3 and Pc, Unreal Tournament III for the Xbox 360 has now hit the shelves. The high point of the series so far promises explosive action and stunning first person shooter game play. If you like your FPS then hold onto your rail gun because you’re in for a real treat.
The game play in Unreal tournament III is incredible. The majority of the game is played on foot. Where you run about with a wide range of weapons to unleash on your enemy. Every single gun and weapon in the game has dual-fire mode. This offers Increased variety and versatility for you to blast your opponents with. For example, the Flak Cannon lets you fire a shotgun-style mode allowing you to hit targets over a wide range. Its second mode of fire is fireball burst, perfect for less vulnerable foes.
This game also has vehicles, which adds a whole new dimension to the game play. These are found on certain maps and include aerial vehicles, tanks, buggies and even hover boards! The only problem is it takes a bit of getting used to, as this switches you from first to third-person view.
The game also offers a wide range of game modes. Including the popular Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag and the fast paced Vehicle Capture the Flag. There are also two brand new game modes in Unreal Tournament III, Warpath and Duel.
Warpath is more strategic; this is where you have to power up nodes to access the opponent’s core. Duel is a simple one-on-one where players can battle it out and prove their skills. These two new modes really help to add greater varitiy to the game. This is deffiently not a game you put down after a few hours due to feeling you have already experienced everything the game has to offer.
If you are a fan on the previous two Unreal Tournaments or just a fan of first-person shooter in general then do not miss out on this game. It will make an excellent addition to any gamer’s library. The fast paced multiplayer action is a total non-stop frenzy that every gamer will enjoy. The added two-player split screen mode also makes this game well worth getting. It’s great for inviting a few friends round and blasting hell out of each other. This game is one of the best games so far this year. Do not miss out!
