m4ik's Journal: Ownage!

UT2003 is finally out in Europe! Got my copy on Wednesday :)
Ahh sweet memories of me and my brandnew G4 playing UT religiously for ... it must have been years. I stopped when I could beat any bots, but realised than with my modem, I'll never be any good online. When I got DSL, I just tried it again and owned so much that everybody called me a cheater.
Now, my gaming machine is an Athlon 1800+ with a Geforce3 Ti on DSL, but UT just doesn't bite me like it used to do. Its nice and all, but I feel a bit playing the old stuff over and over again with some very very polished graphics. Heck, they didn't even exchange any weapons but the pistol, which is now a Halo-like rifle. No more Ripper ... and the sniper gun is fubar. The only really good thing I can think of is that forestmap. Now, thats what I call innovative layout and design. Besides, it's just beautiful :-)
