UTIII Review on Gameplayer - "The game that makes Halo look slow and lethargic"

4
Gameplayer has gone live with a review of Unreal Tournament III for its release on Xbox 360. They praise the old-school gameplay and speed of the combat and declare it a genuine alternative to Halo 3.

"Are you frustrated by multiplayer FPS games that put too much emphasis on accuracy and controlled bursts of fire? Or demand that you work as a team over headsets at all times to have a chance of success? Or worse still, make you sit on the side-lines waiting for minutes on end after being picked off by a sniper you never saw? If so, chances are that you're a veteran, brought up on the fast-paced frag-fests of Quake. And chances are Unreal Tournament III is the antidote to your Counter-Strike-itis: a pitch-perfect throwback to the origins of FPS multiplayer."

1 - For me
This smokes Halo out of the water.

I know that it is bungie day and all, but I find the combat in UT III to be so much faster, and it a lot harder to just camp it up and be a loser.

1.1 - NO way does it smoke Halo 3 out of the water but I could see where it would be up to the individual.
In many ways especially online Halo 3 was and is quite ground breaking.

Yeah i still think Halo's online features -especially video sharing - is miles ahead of the rest of the game, I just find the combat too tierred between awesome, and so-so players
