Unreal 2003 is unlike many other games out there. The older Unreal Tournament in my opinion had amazing graphics, 2003 seems to have carried this tradition. It almost seems as if you were in an animated motion picture. For example I love how to grass moves in this game. Small things like this really make a game better. The requirements are steep though. On my dual G4/500 the game was almost unplayable (unless you turned off a bunch of settings). It is much better to run this game with a high end video board. About all the machines ship with a good video card though, even the Radeon 9200 in the iBooks handled this game well.

I have three different installations for Unreal Tournament. One for UT2003 Windows version, one for UT2003 Mac PPC, and one for UT2004 Mac Universal binary. My Mac is Intel based, so the game play for UT2003 was very lacking, as this is a PPC designed game. I cannot vouch for it's operation on a PPC. I can however say that the Windows Version of UT2003 is great and is hours filled with butt loads of fun, plus my UT2004, which was designed for both PPC & Intel, operates flawlessly and the graphics far out weigh that of the Windows version, so if you have a PPC Mac, I would say buy this item and have fun.

I thought this was the best FPS game I have seen in a while. The singleplayer is gr8 and the Multiplayer was INSANE!!!! I recommend this game to anyone who likes FPS'

as long as you can get it to run adequately(which shouldn't be a problem), this game is the best FPS on the market. singleplayer tournament can be incredibly challenging on the mid-high difficulties, and singleplayer botmatches never get old... and then theres multiplayer, the replay value of which is infinite. definitely worth picking up if you enjoy this kind of game.

The first day I got this game I installed it and started playing online. After a while I started feeling hungry and realized that it was 2:30 in the morning already! The single player campaign is pretty bad, so I'd only recommend this to people with internet connections to play online. It does take a decent machine to run it well, but I got it running extremely smoothly on my powerbook 12" 867 simply by turning world detail and model detail down. The game looks fantastic, even with reduced settings. This game also has an incrediable online community that is constantly churning out new maps and mods that transforms it into a completely different game. All in all, I love this game. In my opinion it is one of the best first person shooters avaliable right now. Highly reccomended

I have played this game on the PC and I love it.
I herd it was on sale at Amazon so I scooted over to by a copy for my iMac.
I almost died when I saw $70.00+ price (sale i thought?)
So went the US Amazon site and there it is new low price of $19.99, that's around $30.00 Canadian, but only avalable in the US (Apple has it on line in the US same price) SO BEND OVER CANADA, the AMAZON is comming Through.

i liked it it had everything going for it BUT the size of the game was minute i finished it in 1 hour and with the unreal tornimant the first one it looks like it was slaped together in minits

This is the first time I've been burned with a game purchase. I shouldn't complain, but for the sake of warning others, here's the scoop:

Unfixed bugs.
Game was out for more than half a year before patch came out. There are still major bugs after the update.
(1) Custom bots on LAN games does not work. You set it for 4, you get 3, sometimes 2. Sometimes on the wrong team. Unpredictable.
(2) Team color not consistent with player setup
(3) Game crashes every ten minutes
(4) Quitting the game and then playing it again causes it to run in slow motion. Playing UT2003 then Quake3 causes Q3 bizarre slowdowns.
(5) Weapon strength is completely out of whack.

I'm feeling less than thrilled with this game.
Not only did I pay DOUBLE the price of the pc version, but I have to settle for a game that has major problems. I unfortunately am very doubtful that another patch will come.
I only buy two games a year and I'm really bummed out that I got burned.
Watch for my copy on half.com for cheap!!

this game is the best ive ever played in all my 15years of living.

When i played the demo i had doubt of the game but i gave it a try and it is the best game ever! The mulitplayer is in opinion the best part of the game. The Imac verion of this game is a lot better then the pc one. I suggest this game to anyone who likes shooter games.
