UT2003 Big Sales
Unreal Tournament 2003, the successor to 1998's Unreal and 1999 Unreal Tournament, was the best-selling PC game in the world for the first two weeks of its release in October. In its first month, Unreal Tournament 2003 has sold more than 800,000 copies worldwide.
That is in fact, a whole lot of copies sold. Speaking of UT2003, I dunno if I ever shared my full thoughts on it. Well, I think its well executed, well polished, and good fun. But, I think I'm just currently a bit tired of the style of gameplay offered there, which to me feels similar to the original UT and Quake3. Perhaps if I didnt play so darn much Quake3 I would be all over this game, but for now UT2003 just sits on my shelf waiting for the day I get the urge for that style of game again. Kinda like TonyHawk3 does. It's great stuff when I'm in the mood for it, but well.. I just havent been. Oh btw, here is the UT2003 demo and demo patch.

What we need is a return to actually fast and furious games, like QW (and CPM for Q3).
Fuck slow games and appeasing the masses. -
