Turnip for the books

Bought (yes that's right, i BOUGHT!) Unreal Tournament 3 for the pc on saturday.

It was like putting an old pair of slippers back on was playing with a keyboard and mouse again. Feels so comfortable and responsive compared to a controller. There's just no comparison for first person shooters.

Only bugger is i can't run it on super hires so everything looks a bit pixellated now compared to the 360.

But diyyam, it's enjoyable. Haven't played online yet but i'm actually looking forward. It's probably the only game where i can hold my own against real people and i have so missed playing with a mouse again.

I would highly recommend getting it when it comes out on the 360. Million times better than Halo and being on a hoverboard latching onto a vehicle is tres cool.

Halo 3 fever pitch

Apparently everyone's going ape-shit over Halo 3 coz it's out on wednesday. Personally i couldn't give too shites about it but i guess i may as well get it to see what people are masturbating over.

Radio 1 has had this big hoo-hah over it this lunchtime and all the magazines are doing 20 page articles describing how ball-achingly brilliant it is.

I. Just. Don't. Get. It.

What has Halo got that Unreal Tournament hasn't?

UT is the grandaddy of it all (Well Doom is, strictly speaking, but that paved the way for UT multiplayer).

You should try out UT 2004, it's the mutts nuts if you like Halo and it's a hell of a lot better. Also UT 3 is coming out tres soon and that looks DAMN good.

Well i'm quite sure anyway coz i only really played the first Halo, the second kinda passed me by. But, hey, why let a little thing like lack of facts deter me from making my usual heavy-handed opinions.

Halo 3 - Whoop de fucking doo

Am i the only person in the world who doesn't actually give 2 shits about Halo 3, it seems nothing more than an unreal tournament clone, and an inferior one at that.

Unreal Tournament 3 is going to kick 7 shades of shit out of Halo 3. Double-jumps, quad-jumps, alternative fire, killing spree, low gravity, about a dozen different game modes and more vehicles you can shake a stick at.

Warthog jumps? Woo!, gimme me UT3 every single time

Although saying that, i'll probably still download Halo 3, all it costs me is the price of a blank disk and some time
