I've been playing the Unreal Demo for quite a while today, and I am loving it. The problem is, though, is that I enjoy it so much as a game that I play in front of a computer. There are certain games that work in different situations and enviornments. For example, Halo works better on a console then on PC, but Counter-Strike a PC game, and it doesn't work well on consoles just because they have been designed for different purposes. Unreal Tournment has that certain feel of the speed and enviorment and just the plain rush that you get from sitting a foot away from the monitor...once you take that away, it deducts from the game. I understand that everyone has the option to play on the PC, but if this game goes onto consoles, it will deduct from other people's experiences. I truly believe that UC3 is going to be the game I play when I'm too lazy to get onto my Xbox and troubleshoot live, making it one of my most played games...and that is purly because it is so fun. And I will say, I LOVE HALO. It's my other favorite multiplayer game...probably my favorite overall. It's just that it works on a console because it has a different pace and overall feeling. Some of the best things about Unreal is that you will get sniped and then right as you slip away you die, and you can curse out you monitor...once you put it on the console...it just feels like you died, and there's no real feeling. The best example of my point can be seen with Unreal Championship (http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/unrealchampionship/index.html?tag=result;title;0 )...I played that game and it didn't feel the same...I just couldn't get the feeling. I'm just hoping that the PC community will be large enough compared to all the people who buy it on the consoles.
