Unreal Tournament 2004 Feature

• Futuristic gladiator blood sport battles
• Land and air and space based vehicles
• New weapons and battle arenas unique to Unreal Tournament 2004
• New Assault mode and Onslaught mode
• For 1 player or multiplayer over LAN or Internet connection

Unreal Tournament 2004 isn't just an expansion pack or semi-sequel to last year's 2003 edition. It's a full blown and worthy sequel to the original Unreal Tournament, and a rock solid multiplayer and single-player game in its own right.

For starters UT2004 looks fantastic. The Unreal engine is built to compete with the best graphics engines around, and Epic didn't skimp on the special effects here. The missions run the gamut from cramped, intense corridor fighting to wide-open spaces. There are plenty of vehicles to pilot, and all of your favorite weapons, from the rocket-launcher to the flak cannon.

The single-player mode is still extremely strong because the robots you compete against are so well-programmed. They're not programmed to beat you, per se, but rather to play convincingly like a cadre of real people. Some are good, some are bad, they miss occasionally, and they even spout trash talk like people do online.

Multiplayer is where it's at with the return of Deathmatch mode, Domination, Double Domination, Capture the Flag, the return of Assault mode (a favorite missing from the 2003 edition). A brand new concept called Onslaught challenges teams to capture Power Nodes scattered throughout the level. The game offers the fun of paint-ball with the thrill of vicarious warfare and ultra-violence, in the safety and comfort of your own office or computer room. Really, the only complaint here is the whopping 6 gigabyte hard drive installation requirement and the fact that the game requires an impressive computer to run it. Look at the system requirements carefully before buying! --Andrew S. Bub

Pros:

• Gorgeous graphics
• Superb multi- and single-player modes
• Onslaught mode is a great addition

Cons:

• Requires a very powerful PC and a huge hard drive

Unreal Tournament 2004 features single-player oriented gaming with all-out battles using land, space, and air-based vehicles on the homeworlds of various combatants. Experience the adrenaline rush of space-based battle while attacking or defending a Skaarj mother ship and battle over a robot construction factory on Zan Kreigor's mechanical homeworld. Unreal Tournament 2004 also includes a new mutliplayer combat game that features custom-built large-scale maps, awesome new weapons, and land and air vehicles. From the lethal bomber to the nefarious spider mines, players will work together to control map points and win the conflict.

Built around the theme of Jedi cooperation during the battles and events of the Clone Wars, in Star Wars The Clone Wars: Jedi Alliance players must not only master the force individually, but also maximize and focus its power as you join with another Jedi to fight as a unit. The makeup of your Jedi pairings is entirely up to you. Go with a team of padawans, a team of master Jedi, or the usual master and student team. Playable Jedi include, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ahsoka Tano, Mace Windu, Plo Koon, and Kit Fisto.

New Chapter, New Villains
Although set within context of the events of Episode II and Episode III, the original story of Jedi Alliance allows for the emergence of a set of villains new to most Star Wars fans, the Nightsisters. Not new to the overall Star Wars universe, the Nightsisters have been alluded to in many of the past Star Wars novels and a few of the games, but Jedi Alliance gives fans and players alike their best view of them to date.

The Nightsisters are a coven of 'Force witches' aligned with the Dark Side, but not owing allegiance to the Emperor. Legend has it that they were taught the ways of the Force in the ancient past by a renegade Jedi. An outcast and thus unhampered by the decisions of the Jedi council, this Jedi created an Amazon-like society which ruled its far away homeworld with an iron fist in isolation. Although their close contact with the Dark Side gives the Nightsisters an appearance very similar to the Sith, they are not part of the same sect. In fact, as the events of Jedi Alliance unravel, it becomes clear that although they are a danger to the Jedi they may pose just as much of a threat to the growing power if the Emperor.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars is a state-of-the-art computer-animated motion picture and television series that bridges the gap between Episode II and Episode III feature films. Under the supervision of George Lucas, Star Wars: The Clone Wars brings a fresh new look to the timeless saga of one of the most celebrated stories and introduces generations of fans to brand new characters as well as classic rivalries and conflicts that delve deeper into the Star Wars mythos. Star Wars The Clone Wars: Jedi Alliance takes the player into the world of the all-new Star Wars animated feature film and TV series. Experience the combined power when two Jedi join forces to fight as one. Choose your favorite Jedi pair at the start of each mission and experience unique moves and combat skills. With an innovative stylus-based input, controlling the Jedi's movement and Lightsaber combat has never felt more immersive.
