Yep, My favourite game :
Im sorry you can keep your Medal of Honor and your Counter Strike. I was a big fan of the original Unreal tournament and the follow up which was released some time ago "2003" is one of the most playable fun online shooters currently available.

It has a graphically intensive engine which apart from looking gorgeous is a good indication of how your high end games are going to play today.



Not too much of a difference over stock settings between the 9800 pro and the 9800 XT but once overclocking commences the differences become more apparent - this test shows the extra headroom the 9800 XT has, especially the 14 frame advantage at 1600x1200 4aa + 16 af 63 fps compared with almost 78 fps, This might not seem much but it is a clear indication with a more complex or future engine the 9800 XT will definately be the better bet and certainly the more futureproof.

Both 9800 pro and XT stock are more than capable of running this game at any setting and resolution but as I stated above im particularly impressed with the overclocked Visiontek XT at 1600x1200 -- with all eye candy on this card is going to ROCK with the forthcoming Doom 3 and Half life 2. And lets not forget UT2004 !
