Game:
Battlefield 1942
System: PC
Web Site: http://www.ea.com/eagames/main/pccd/battle...ld1942/home.jsp ('http://www.ea.com/eagames/main/pccd/battlefield1942/home.jsp')

This
game is really kick ---. The graphics aren't that great but the game
play is MASSIVE. No other game allows you command over 35 different
vehicles ranging from jeeps and tanks to aircraft carriers, planes and
submarines.
This article basically sums it
up:

In Battlefield 1942, you
will experience the heat of battle as you heroically storm the beaches of
Normandy, drive a tank across the deserts of northern Africa, pilot a
fighter plane during the Battle of Midway, command a battleship at
Guadalcanal, or parachute and commandeer a jeep in operation Market
Garden. It is the only first person, team-based action game that places
you in the midst of a raging WWII battle with 35 "machines of war" for
you to control. You.ll arm yourself with the sidearm of your choice and
get behind the wheel of a variety of vehicles, ships and aircraft to fight
the war on land, sea, and air during some of the most famous and pivotal
battles of the Second World War.

Key Features
include:
Machines of War. Pilot a heavy bomber over the drop zone or
engage in a dogfight in a swift fighter. Fire the guns of a mighty
battleship or prowl the sea-lanes in a silent submarine. Charge across the
desert in a powerful tank or transport troops into the heat of battle in
an armored APC.
Battle Online. Go online with up to 64 players to take
part in a raging battle that requires teamwork and cooperation from each
member in order to achieve victory.
Choose Your Side. Enter the war as
a soldier in one of five different armies - US, German, British, Russian,
or Japanese.
Specialized Character Kits. Enter the battle as one of
five specialized character classes - assault, medic, scout, anti-tank,
engineer - each with unique strengths and weaknesses.
Arm Yourself for
Action! Choose from 19 authentic WWII handheld weapons to take into
battle, including 2 stationary machine guns.
A Global Conflict. Wage
war across 16 huge, highly detailed maps from 4 WWII theaters - North
Africa, South Asia Pacific, Western Europe and Eastern Europe.

Unlimited Action. 3 multiplayer modes - Team Deathmatch, Capture the
Flag, and Conquest -- as well as a robust single player experience.


Yes this game rocks. It cost $90 AUD which is not cheap but
well worth it. Your computer must be fairly good to run it. The system
requirements are: 500 MHz processor

128 MB
RAM

4x CD-ROM Drive

1.2 GB Disk Space

32 MB Video
Card

DirectX 8.1

Keyboard

Mouse
If
you match those bits and pieces why not download the free demo from their
site? It is exactly the same as the real game but only comes with one map.
If you get the multiplayer version you can even play it online! I
reccomend buying it as soon as you can :D

This
game is amazing from the Maps to the skins and even to the Game Play!
What I like about this gae the most is that you can play a one player game
(working through the story) or even set your puter up as a server and load
BOTS and play against them at set levels.
As for Multiplayer WOW!
This game is up there with Counter Strike and SOF 1 and SOF 2. Depending
on the server you can have over 50 people on at a time
:woot: There is also an art
to this game! You need to learn how to master the light saber as well
as your force powers, or you will not last long :(
My advice to you is
have a mouse with at least 5 buttons (This will allow you to set certin
force powers at your fingertips ;) )

All in all I
give this game 5 out of 5 stars! Great Gameplay and
Graphics!

I'd
have to debate that.

Game: Unreal Tournament 2003
System: None
other than the almighty PC!
URL: http://www.unrealtournament2003.com/ ('http://www.unrealtournament2003.com/')

And I
quote:

[b] Unreal Tournament 2003
is the sequel to 1999's multiple 'Game of the Year' award
winner. It uses the very latest Unreal Engine technology - where graphics,
sound and gameplay are taken beyond the bleeding edge.

Unreal
Tournament 2003 is a lightning-fast, no-holds-barred sport of the future,
where warriors face off like the Gladiators of ancient Rome to determine
the ultimate combatant. Super human reflexes, awesome weapons and the
skill to use them effectively are what separate the good from the bad, the
living from the dead, the victor from vanquished.

Unreal Tournament
2003 can be played alone, against computer-controlled 'bots' or
against human opponents via LAN or the Internet. The single player
experience revolves around progress through a tournament ladder where you
play alone or as leader of a team of warriors you select to take on the
enemy in the various modes of combat. As your team wins, you'll work
your way up through the leagues until the challenge to ultimate combat is
met and the true Champion determined.

The multiplayer section of
the game is where the skills you have are tested to the limit. Go up
against individuals or teams on your own or as member of an elite squad on
LAN or the Internet in Unreal Tournament 2003's various modes of
multiplayer game play.

A huge community of hardened warriors is out
there waiting for the challenge. Its up to you to show them who they
should be afraid of.

This is real sport. Real competition. Let
battle commence.
