Unreal Tournament trailer reveals 'story'

Wait, Unreal Tournament has a story? When did this happen? One of the big new improvements to this hotly anticipated PS3/PC sequel is the addition of a significant single player story. Fans of Unreal Tournament have long gone without a story. It's not really necessary, especially in light of such advanced multiplayer modes. Regardless, the single player mode should prove a great way of training our ability to gib and get some insane kills.

1. I can't believe they wasted time on this. *Yawn*

2. Agreed. Story and UT3 don't mix. They should have just stuck with a single-player tournament tree mode to help you learn the maps/have fun when you're not online. UT has always been about the multiplayer, nobody cares about the single player component.

In other news, Eye of Judgement has been totally ruined. The print-out/photocopy exploit news is out: http://kotaku.com/gaming/oops/eye-of-judgment-cards-copyable-314899.php

This works on my friend's $60 HP printer, so there's not even a need for high quality hardware. Such a shame, the competitive and collection aspects of the game are now dead.

3. We don't need no stinking story. Last time I remember there being s story... it was Unreal Championship 2...

...I feel dinner coming back up. Be right back...

4. Sweeet. A story in UT. The best get better.

5. ^^^ why not just update future cards with some sort of copy protection?

i dont think its THAT serious of a problem...

6. Did no one who was working on eye of judgment think to try this out and see if it could be copied that easily???

7. I was really excited, until the story started. Horrible story. So simplistic. And it's prime motivating factor? Revenge. How few modern humans engage in the act or the fantasy of revenge? That's really low brain, there.

I may still play it, because I can always pretend I'm this dude I used to know who thought like that. I would imagine I'm him, playing the game. I'd have to. No other way to emulate a 70-90 IQ.

9. UT has always had a story. No one knows the Liandri Corporation??

10. Looks pretty entertaining if you ask me.

11. Was that Samuel L Jackson doing the voice of Malcom?

12. Hey, did no one notice it said November?!

13. The dude is Marcus Fenix Mark II... this is Gears of War with a lemon twist, dammit...

This wreaks of unoriginality...

14. A story in UT3 has been known for a good while now.

Posted at 11:19AM on Oct 26th 2007 by chrisboy5

15. Yes it's been known, but this is news of that story being actually not so good.

Posted at 4:39PM on Oct 26th 2007 by ryano

16. That guy looked a lot like the guy from Gears. This story isn't good, but i'd rather have it, than not have it.
