GameSpy have thrown up their preview of Epic Games fps Unreal Tournament 2004! Here's a snip.
Our day started with Epic lead designer Cliff "CliffyB" Bleszinski and producer Jeff Morris loading up the latest version of UT 2004. As the game starts, we couldn't help notice that the music sounds quite similar to the theme from the original Unreal Tournament. It's no accident -- as Bleszinski explains, UT 2004 is in many ways meant to be a meeting of the old and the new. Before getting into those features, it's worth pointing out some of the numbers surrounding the new game. All told, there are 10 core game modes shipping with UT 2004 -- and that's not even counting various mutators and game modifiers (like the ever-popular Instagib). The game will ship on a whopping 6 CD's, and a Special Edition DVD version is also planned for release (for more info, see our special feature on the DVD SE ).
