Am I the only one who thinks that UT/UT2003 is dumb?

First off, the game (well, graphics) look very impressive and that is definitely cool...

However, am I the only one who thinks that the Unreal series is kind of cheesy and lame?

Laser guns, blobs of acid rifles, jumping football fields at a time on occasion, electricity shield things, etc....it all just seems really dumb to me.

(Note that I think Star Wars/Star Trek/crap like that is also dumb, and I'll probably get flamed by every memeber of this board.)

I do like it when other games come out on the Unreal engines with realistic weapons, damage, tactics, etc.

As a final note, if a gun were to really be able to shoot lasers, you wouldn't see them traveling towards your target in a distinct 3 foot long beam going at 60 feet per second.

*YAWN*

Its a game, not real life... hence the name 'UNREAL' :D

Please tell me this is nothing more than a pathetic rant by a sniveling little Carmack worshipper who can't accept the fact that UT was a superior game to Q3.

OOOH, now that I like!! (BTW, never was a big fan of the Quake series either - "scary" monsters are just as lame)


If you're wondering, my current favorite is SoF2.

hmmm, maybe that's why they called it Unreal Tournament?

Not Reality Tournament, Lifelike Tournament, etc.

All it takes is a some imagination. :D

Yep! I love IG. :D Starting to get used to the scope secondary fire too! :D

It is a stress reliever for me. It is easy to just jump in a multiplayer game and frag away. It does not require indepth thinking and you can play for a while and work out some aggression and then leave.

UT is still and always will be a kiddie game compared to Quake 3. At least they finally have the physics engine down.

And quake3 has a good one? Next time I see someone use a plasma rifle to climb a wall I'll remind myself that 'that's the way it should be'
