Okay, I purchased Unreal II, The Awakening today. I hope to give a Jarg Review of the game before too long. One thing that I can say for the game is that, so far, it is graphically impressive. Gameplaywise, it kind of reminds me of Halo for the X-Box, and that ain't a bad thing. I'll let you know if it bogs down my P-4 1.5 during some intense firefights. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>The Jargonaut<br></p><i></i>

now of course you should probably make backup copies of the game, and, as a precaution, send one to Canada, Berkeley, Texas, and Virginia. That way if your roof blows off again, you will have a burn of your game, lol!<br><br>M <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :hat --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/pimp.gif ALT=":hat"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

I've been price shopping up here. UT2k3 has gone down 5 bucks, but it's still $60! Ureal II is going for $65. Too much! 30 bucks, ok, but not 60. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :x --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/sick.gif ALT=":x"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Yep, it did bog down my system. BIGTIME! I'm talking like the ground level of Crane when you are firing with everything ya got. But I do like the game. I guess that I just don't have the horsepower to run it. Keep in mind that I had everything maxed out, and I run games at a pretty high resolution. Sigh... I guess that I will have to get a new system <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>The Jargonaut<br></p><i></i>

How good is the story line and game play this time? Unreal 1 started out so well, but it just dragged on forever, level after level after boring level. And then after killing the alien queen, the guy doesn't even get home. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :x --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/sick.gif ALT=":x"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>If I hadn't decided to look at "botmatch" in that game before I uninstalled it; I never would have ended up here. <p></p><i></i>

Actually, it's pretty run of the mill FPS stuff. Those graphics are the star of this show. Don't get me wrong, the story ain't bad so far (I've beat 5 levels or so), I've just seen it before. Like i said before, It reminds me of Halo for the X-Box. If you ever get a chance to play that one, then do it. It's an awesome game. U2 also reminds me of Alien vs Preditor 2. The graphics are awesome, but I have to play at 800x600 to get acceptable framerates. I need Trigons overclocked system to play this right. If you have anything less that a gig processor, be prepared to play this with everything on the lowest setting. <br>One other thing. Aida, the female character in this game, is quite possibly the most incredible use of pixels ever in a videogame. <!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-size:x-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Good Golly Miss Molly!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :hat --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/pimp.gif ALT=":hat"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>The Jargonaut<br></p><i></i>
