Unreal is back in the sequel that everyone has been waiting for.
The sound is maybe the games weakest side, though it's not bad at all. There are some cool tecno tunes during the deathmatches, and in the new Onslaught there are some awesome composisions that'll make your blood pump even faster than usual during playing Unreal! The sound effects are fine and realistic. The dialogs during matches aren't that good though. They work okay, but there are some commands that I feel is missing.
The gameplay is excellent and features some new multiplayer modes and a pretty big single player tournament. The multiplayer bots are very good, and they think almost like real humans. There are no problems for you sitting there playing Unreal for hours without being online. The story is simple and very, very entertaining. The first time you enter a deathmatch is a fantastic meating between computer and human. The intence action that UT2004 delivers is essential for the series. The new Assault and Onslaught mode is great and features controlling vehicles and completing missions. The vehicles in the game are simply awesome and features both tanks and spaceships! UT2004 is so well done you don't have any idea. There are new weapons, vehicles, maps, modes and a new campaign, of course! UT2004 is an essential buy for every UT fan out there, this is truely what you've been waiting for.

Fine graphics. The vehicles are awesome. The new assault and onslaught modes works fantastic. The same intense feeling as the original Unreal Tournament.

The single-player isn't that great, though I didn't expect it to be either.
