With UT3 having 4 player co-op, there is no excuse to not have 4 player co-op in halo 3. I just hope that happens.

Seems like its going to be Unreal 3 for the campaign and Unreal Tournament for the multiplayer. And that is a really good idea, lets hope the single player is better then Unreal 2 though...

@mike

Don't be pissed because you suck ass at the game.

UT is easily the best FPS multiplayer game out there. Period. I'm pretty damn excited about a 4 player co-op too!

it's by far the best multi fps, easily. however, we will have to see what TF2 thinks of that! as it is looking very awesome.

I must say, 18 vehicles, WOW! The rest of the info was already out though about the hoverboards and 4 player co op online (although I dont think for the 360 version).

This game will kick some serious ass

I've never been a wimp, I don't even take cover in GoW.

I'd rather die than hide like a bitch!

I wouldn't call this game the best shooter franchise out there, but it certainly is right at the top. Too frantic and twitchy for my tastes, but still very fun. The thing is, though, that it won't port well to consoles. I kind of doubt half of their team prefer's the 360 controller.

Halo = hype. UT = the real deal. Can't wait for this one.

But let's face it, a thumbstick will never be as good as a mouse for shooters. Never. Ever. Period. Despite the wild hyperbole to the contrary.

A Wiimote, on the other hand...

I thinking claiming Unreal Tournament is the best multiplayer FPS is a proper assessment. It is to FPS's what StarCraft is to RTS...the pinnacle of the genre. Unreal 2004 kicked some serious ass, and I absolutely cannot wait for this sequel.

@ 2

4 player online co-op has been confirmed for Halo 3. The only reason to doubt it is that Bungie hasn't said "hey guys 4 player online co-op lol". When you find an error message in a game that says "Only four people can play co-op online", that's a pretty good indication right there.

indeed it's looking to be one of the best app's coming out this year. with my play time w/ halo 3 beta, i'd hafta say that it's more halo 2 w/ prettier paint, and that's not really a good thing :O\. though the controls for halo 3 have tightened up some compared to halo 2, it's still just more of the same. but yeah, UT3 and TF2 are definately gonna take the cake. so many freaking games coming out this fall/winter. UT3, HL2, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Blue Dragon etc. i'm gonna need to take a year off of work just to play them all.

"4. too bad unreal always has sucked. When I was 10 I liked playing these turn a corner and the guy is blown away shooter, but not today."

You deserve to burn in Hell.

Unreal > Quake (well, it used to be on top) > Scooby Doo: Fun-Land Adventure > A bunch of shitty games... > Halo (the entire franchise)

Anyway, Mike, you deserve to die the most horrible death ever conceived. When I think of it, I'll let you know.

"Cover is for wim..." BAM!
(comes out from behind cover) "I'm a wimp, and you're dead"
sorry, had to get that out of my system.

Never been much a fan of FPS, but my roommates and I have had alot of fun with UT, so we're looking forward to this. Although, I personally think that Team Fortress 2 looks cooler.

"the designer claimed that UT3's controls are so good that half of the staff prefer the Xbox 360 version"

This line made me cry, because it's clear that they gimped the controls somehow. I'm sorry, but there is no way an analog stick will ever be a more accurate input device than a mouse. It is impossible. In Shadowrun, Halo, etc., they add autoaim (or a ginormous firing cone) to "balance" it. How is this fun for people? If I get the demo and there's autoaim- I won't be buying this... as tough as it is for me to say that.

I seriously believe that anyone who is a hardcore Halo lover has never played a true PC shooter- because if they had, they would never be able to play that piece of crap.

UT is THE FPS for all others should be judged. The original UT is still being played by thousands and we won't even go in depth with UT 2004 which is the best "stop bitching, keep firing" FPS made.

Gears hasn't convince me to get a 360 but UT 3 (2007) would...oh wait, it's coming for PS3 too and with mouse and keyboard support...guess I'll get that instead M/kb, FTW!


@ mikeev

agreed. Even though I play Resistance and a few other FPS with friends on console. The is no better control scheme than mouse and keyboard. Metroid Prime Hunters gets a nod for coming close but with cramps. Wii is still unproven overall but could be on to something after playing CoD 3 on Wii, which is better than dual analog.

Unreal Tournament is awesome. I used to play the first UT all the time in college. I can't wait for this game.

The most important thing for me is how many players can participate in an online game. Battlefield 2 is my all-time most played FPS, not only because it's a great game but because there are 64 people on a server.

If UT can handle 64 players, i'll be all over it.

@24.

I dont know. the more people, the more confusion. Unlike BF, UT2004 had a way of bringing all the fighting together. You couldnt just grab some random node. They had to be attached to your previous one. This constantly moves the frontline. You could not have 64 players doing that. It would be all out chaos.

I recently purchased Unreal Anthology so I can see how the heck UT2004 was. Having not played FPSs in a couple years I was obviously doing much worse than the average bot, but the whole node system did make for hectic firefights that were enjoyable as long as I ignored the fact that I wasn't really hitting anything.

Metroid Prime Hunters better than analog sticks ?!?!? Are you f*ing kidding me? have you ever played a 360? there is absolutely no way DS controls for FPS are better than 360 or even Playstation. I could go on and on as to why ... but i don't think i have to ... just think # of great FPS on DS vs. # of great FPS on xbox, playstation.

Enough Said.
