Unreal Championship

"The tournament is back and better than ever!"

If you hadn't already known Unreal Tournament/Championship is about people fighting for their freedom against others with the same goal. In this you will endure matches like: Deathmatch (Every man for himself eliminating all in their path for a certain amount of kills aka frags.) Capture the Flag (You along with other team members put on each side of the map go to try and steal the enemies flag trying to not get blown away as you make it back to your own base with the your flag still there.) Team Deathmatch (Similar to regular deathmatch except you with few others strive to get the most frags.) Domination (2 zones Alpha and Bravo somewhere on a map 1 team either blue or red must hold both of the zones to dominate for 10 seconds, each time this is done you get 1 point. Bombing Run (Yourself and a team of people run around to the middle of the map is a ball you must retreive the ball and take it to the other teams goal, you can pass, fumble, or even intercept the ball. if you have the ball you cannot fire any gun but the gun they give you that passes the ball.)

Replay Value 9/10: This game is very fun to play over and over again even after beating it, its fun to beat it on novice mode then going up to skilled, and so on all the way to godlike. And why i give the replay value a 9 is because of xbox live its unstopable fun to just play everyone and kick their ass.

Overall 8/10: This game again is a must have for xbox online or not its entertaining. They took Assault and Last Man Standing out but even without those out its still incredibly fun with Bombing Run and Domination 2.0

FUN FUN FUN

Story 8/10: The story is plain and simple but interesting groups of people struggling in baron wastelands, freezing waters, grassy jungles obliterating all who stand in their way of survival, and freedom.

Graphics 9/10:This game in my point of view has pretty good graphics, no scattered pixels making their face blurry, or their hands squares. FPS, First person shooter, you cant see your own person but the other enemies you can which arent graphics like dream tv, or final fantasy 7 (not saying its bad because of it.)

Sound 7/10: While their own noises they make while getting shot, or gun sounds, or other things related to that are good the music for levels is what makes this game only a 7 for sound. It lacks music but has some that makes the levels better. It goes with the level but would have there been more effort in the sound, it would've been much better.

Gameplay 8/10: Controls couldnt be much easier for the type of controller xbox has. If you've played Halo you should know the moving is very easy. The back buttons are the primary and alternate fire and your fingers can easily go there without hassle, the campeigns for this game are sort of short 7 stages for each of the campeigns but very fun. A big part of the reason this game is worth buying is for the online options (if you have xbox live.)
