What can I say, this game is simply amazing. Hella fun to play and looks sweet.

I like it as well. Its fun to smash things with a big mace or hammer!!

Online play is very fun as well.

Anyone else play this? I'm looking for a good new game to play.

If you're looking for a new fun game, then this is it. D/L the demo and try it for yourself.

I really like the single player, but the multi is total crap IMO. Not only is it boring and repetitive, but it's all jittery no matter what server I join...unlike any other online game I play.

I tried the demo. The demo level looks very good and shows off the UT engine well. Combat seems overly simplistic (one generic attack, a generic defend, and a rune power attack). The rune power ups don't last long enough, either. Combat is rather boring with circle strafing defeating everything easily. Text is very small at 1280x1024 and disappears quickly, not that it really mattered because the "puzzles" were easy. EAX sound was rather messed up (probably fixed in the real game).

One kewl thing I experienced was attacking simultaneously with the enemy -- our weapons banged together with a metallic sound and we "washed" on that round! Hehe. I also love the game speed feature (90% works great for me).

There are different attacks-basically "combo" moves-like in Heretic 2.
