Here is an interesting quote " But what struck me about Unreal II was the variety in the gameplay. Unlike previous games where it's the same thing over and over again, Unreal II plays out more like a science fiction movie where you're the star. Not only is each mission unique, but you'll also encounter over 25 different kinds of enemies. And, when you combine that with excellent AI and brilliant scripted sequences, the end result could be the most compelling PC action game since Half-Life "

This was written by gamespy 3 months ago after playing 8-9 levels of the feature complete game. Strange how there opinion changed though the game did not.

From the GameSpy interview:

Unreal II is a solid and gorgeous-looking shooter, but rarely reaches higher than its more-of-the-same multiplayer sibling, Unreal Tournament 2003. It's a good game, but too often resorts to recycling a number of first-person shooter clichÃƒÂ©s instead of breaking new ground.

And Jar-Jar Binks is piloting your spaceship. Great, just great; I'm holding on to my Best Buy giftcard for Devastation.

so it's basically a single-player version of UT2K3 it sounds like. Pretty, polished, semi-interesting at times, but nothing really exciting and kinda boring. yay

When I read this part of the GameSpy review that did it for me

Ã¢Â€ÂœThis makes it all the more frustrating to fight brainless enemies like the spiders, who move slowly and require nothing more than consistent doses of ammo. There are also a few boss battles, which ... well, let's just say I hate boss battles and Unreal II did nothing to change my opinion of them.Ã¢Â€Â

I canÃ¢Â€Â™t take any more spiders and game bosses. Next game

Wow pretty much what i expected from Unreal2. It's a shame but these people need to start making the AI and physics interesting enough that you'll wanna do some battles over and over. It's too bad they just made a run of the mill FPS. No moneys for you.
