I need a new single player FPS. Unreal 2 looks awesome, but I haven't talked to anyone who's played it through. It's $32 at Newegg, should I get it?

I have been told that it is rather short, good, but not as good as it was expected. Not many FPS games out there right now.
I played the game a while back, you must remember that I have not played the original Unreal before, so I found the game to be quite challenging;) but short:( (finished it in 'bout 3 days of intense gaming - I'm not very good at gaming:o but I try!). I liked it for the beautifully rendered environment (got killed a few times while I stood admiring the view, Hehehe :o :p )
It's all good when it's Unreal :)
I replied "Yay" but I don't know if the game is worth 32 bucks. I haven't played through the first game, but what I've seen so far I like. It's definetly "not bad" but I don't know if it worths 32 bucks to play. If it was cheaper then I'd grab it in a second.
Play the demo then make a decision. Personally, I thought the demo level sucked. The Elite Force II demo, however, was alot of fun...:)
Unfortunately, the didn't release a demo for Unreal II, only Unreal Tournament 2003.Quote:

Unreal II is amazing, yeah it's a bit on the short side ... but then again that's on the easy setting (how many people actually play a new game on anything but easy?). You can overlook the shortness of the game because it is beautifully made, and you'll probably end up dying a couple of times while you're admiring the scenary.
Ugh, that would ruin the entire game for me. You gotta have the challenge first!Quote:

Well, I decided to order the game a few minutes ago. I figure with the amount of time I have to play games, I won't be done until next year anyway ;) Plus it looks awesome, I don't hear anything explicitly terrible about it, not many other choices in that type of game, and not to mention you guys voted Yay :D.
Thanks for the help :)
Sure they did. :)Quote:

Didn't you find it too damn long at loading the levels? WoOo that was pretty boring :mad: :mad:
There is a demo! I just found it on Fileshack:

Too bad I already ordered the game :eek:
I just hope I like it.. should have the demo in about 10 minutes :)
Darn it, I shouldn't have played the demo. Now I can't wait to play the actual game... :mad:
This is the first game I have ever played which I can't stand at 1024x768. I don't know why, but 1280x960 is the minimum res that I can stand in this game... it just looks ruined at anything lower, if that makes any sense...
I can't stand low rez either. It's always 1600x1200 for my games... and thats on a Ti4200.Quote:

Man! That's really quite hi resolution.;) How the heck can you manage that on a Ti4200 ( a great card, but still...), and at 1600x1200:eek: Any tweakin' skill to pass on?:) I game at 1024x768 on both my rigs, and with Unreal II I get a slight lagging in one particular scene (probably driver issue) - with AA, AF and all eye candy set to max!:DQuote:
