There's actually been some chatter about this, both the console versions and the PC version. PC game ships VERY soon (next week?) so.. that's good :) ve3D.ign.com has a lot of new videos and screenshots.. I'm too lazy to link to them directly though. Maybe later :)

That's the word from Epic.

I'm sorta curious how Unreal Warfare will play out. The game is out, by the way, so where the hell are the reviews? I guess they need it to get into the hands of the community first.. but I want them now.

I'm looking forward to seeing the regulars review it.. gamespot, ign, etc. I can't wait until someone mentions the weak single player experience. I bet they all do. That's what Epic gets for trying to convince people there's actually a single player campaign :)

I think it's going to be something like Unreal Championship 2. VE3D had some videos up (ve3d.ign.com) including single player I believe, but I haven't really watched them.. so I don't know much.

Deeper story than Gears? What gives you that idea? The campaign itself is probably a bunch of bot matches like UC2.. that's what I'm expecting. I don't expect to see much if any character development either. I don't see how that can compare with something with an actual campaign.

But then again, I haven't played Gears SP yet. :P

Then you were never really interested in Unreal Tournament anyway. They tacked on SP for you.

Regular edition all the way for me. Some solid reviews so far.. the valid complaints about the games lack of progression seem relatively fair, but then again, what did people expect? The way I see it, UT can never really escape its past without becoming a different game all together, and it's evolved in pretty drastic form compared to some other run and gun shooters (Quake, Halo). That's all fine and well as far as I'm concerned, my entire interest in this game pretty much revolves around those oldschool values. Personally, I don't see myself ever taking UT too seriously, but I want a quick and fun game to pick up and play during my downtime with other shooters.

The other thing that people seem to be pretty critical of is the games front end menus. They're apparently very "console like" -- which is a bit of a turn off for most PC users -- but I'll live.

I'll be getting it, but I'm not in a big hurry. And like I said before, regular edition for me .. CE's don't generally offer enough value to hold my interest anymore. Hardly anyone who ever buys them is actually getting any collector value out them either, especially considering that games tend to drop dramatically in value in a pretty short period of time.
