My reveiw of unreal 2

4 Rating: 4, Useful: 0 / 0

Unreal 2 is a great improvement is some ways from the first one and some loses.First,Unreal 2 has a strange story line where you are supposed to find artifacts for someone(i forgot his name) but the places are to easy to beat.
The bosses are not really hard to beat with some weapons but they look hard.
I mean sure you might jump back one or two times but it isnt really scary.
The last level was way to easy to beat.Also some people might try to sell Unreal for more than what you can but it from on steam(i will show you a link to download steam, a program that can buy games).I looked the sellers and target sells Unreal 2 for $40.00 when it is only on steam for $10.00.
The reason i gave it four stars was because the game was a need to get kind of game for a person like me since i am a fan of Unreal games.

Enjoy :)

data3.cab corruption on disc 2

I wish I could say how great this game is but I can't even install it. There are 2 discs for installation. The first disc will install without a hitch. The second disc, however, has a corrupt file on it (data3.cab) and cannot be read/copied no matter what you try. Thus, the installation will fail every time. Buyer beware about this one... not worth the headache.

Okay.

It is pretty to look at, but falls flat when compared to the first game in the series.

Huh... that was intresting...

After all the Multi-player versions that came out, Unreal universe is exspanded again in a new single player Adventure. This time with voice acting and facial Posing. NEAT...

Still the game even on it Hardest Settig was way to easy for me in the first run through. and was way too short for my taist. then again it was still long.

The weapons where balanced fairly well, lots of nice features. had a fairly intresting story and an intresting Slant.

Still it dissapointed me. fun but nothing really new...

Unreal II Revisited

I got this game {FPS} originally when it first came out. Lots of hype. I was a solid Unreal fan. This game is completely different from the original Unreals'. It probably should have been named "Pre Halo" or something to that affect. But I thought it was great fun the second time around...using a better computer, maxed out effects and res. Its beautiful to look at and very imaginative. Lots of good weapons early on so you can plan and fight any way you like, cool alt fire modes, and a little bit of mission/puzzle solving...and at the end... a black hole gun...ooooh. Perty dang good overall. The only thing I didn't like was the all to common crappy voice acting. Emotional content was essentially ZERO. Gimme a little horror, a little fear, courage, remorse...anything... the ending is good though :)

Not exactly "Unreal" but...

I never liked those online tournament style games, I prefer something with a bit of a story. This one's got it all. If you found the first Unreal pretty but a bit boring, then you're in for a pleasant surprise. This one is much prettier, and has an actual story!

Very short game.

It should never have been called unreal period. It is a decent "first person" shooter game, but was very short. If I would have paid $40.00 I'd have been very disapointed. It only took 8 - 10 hrs to beat and I'm not a pro gamer!

Good AI and interesting missions

I like this game. While it's true that it has nothing to do with Unreal I'm sure misnaming it was a Marketing management decision. They lied to increase sales. As such I believe if you take Unreal II The Awakening for a sci-fi fps game on its own merits you'll enjoy it.

The opponents are credible and unpredictable. The missions were interesting to me. Not just shoot, shoot & shoot. They required a little strategy and planning. Sometimes you had to place men and weapons to repel attacks or provide sniper cover to a soldier on his own mission.

The storyline could have been expanded but still the characters had distinct, fresh personalities and were not just cardboard cutouts.

An unusual ending too. Not what I expected. Don't expect 'happily ever after'. I played this game over about a week in the evenings and it was something I looked forward too.

If you want a game you can get into that provides a challenge without being impossible to the point of frustration you'll like this one.

Meh... Coulda been done a lot better. A LOT better...

Game had interesting weapons and amazing graphics... but I just don't understand why the game creators didn't stick with the original Unreal storyline. Unreal2 had nothing to do with the first Unreal (which is an awesome game, btw).

XMP can be a fun multiplayer... but there are hardly any working servers!

Now that this game is cheap, though, I'd buy it just for fun.

Unreal 1:Good. Unreal 2:Bad

Back in the old days when the original Unreal came out, there was nothing else I would play. The graphics (for that time) were great, the enemies were fresh and original, and there was no stupid dialogue to bore you to the extent of not wanting to play the game. And it had a wide open door for a sequel, so I was excited about this. Then along comes a digital blob of sacrelige. The graphics are fantastic, but it's not fun killing a bunch of boring space marines, and killing the Skaarj that now look like elephants crossed with a giant T-Rex. The dialogue is bad, folks, and I mean BAD. I just don't want to talk to an alien that looks like a 50's jukebox and full or radioactive semen, or a grungy mechanic who tells you who to use a pistol and smokes incessantly, or the world's greatest strategist who looks like some sort of whore. All in all, the game sucks. If they make an Unreal 3, it better be like the original: fresh, new, and exciting.
