UGO have thrown up their Preview of Unreal Tournament 2004! Here's a byte:
The developers of UT2004 don't want to split hairs with this game. It is still using the same engine and the majority of gameplay elements will be very familiar to players of the 2003 version. If you hated the first game, you'll probably hate this. Sorry, but that's how it is.
That said, if you remotely enjoyed UT2003, Unreal Tournament 2004 is better in every single way. The new game adds everything from the already released bonus packs, as well as a ton of new maps, game modes, weapons, and vehicles. Did I say vehicles? You bet I did.
