Unreal Tournament 2003 is awesome, period. I love the original and this title is definitely "sucessor worthy". I especially love the new "Bombing Run" mode of play - - very challenging. What a terrific entertainment value for only $24.99 Not since Deus Ex, have I found a better value for the dollar.

Here is my only pet peeve; the keys which I mapped out in the Settings Menu are not automatically saved when I quit. Otherwise a fine game! I hope other ehMacers will take a look at it, then we can some "ehMac Game Nights".

I'm still disappointed that our 1.6 GHz G5 with Radeon 9600 can't play UT2k3 at anything above 800x600 with details maxed - and even then, I get 32 fps max, usually under 30 which isn't smooth. But maybe it's because I'm using the demo which isn't optimized for performace jack all.

Oh, Lars... it should be better than that. My DP1.25MDDG4 w/64mb Video, topped out at 72fps averaged 45fps with eveything set to highest (but at 800x600), mind you I have 2gb RAM.

If you're using the full-version of UT2k3, with the latest patches, I can see why your frame rates are so high. I heard the last numerous patches dramatically increased the game's performance - especially the latest patch.

Must be the demo that sucks... are you running 10.3.x?

 

[Bjornbro]

Yes, I have applied the latest patch and I'm currently running X.3.1, I'll upgrade to X.3.2 this Saturday.

Oh! And the fact I have two 2mb L3 cache (one per processor) probably helps as well.

Just curious, where'd you find UT2K3 for $25.00??? I've been looking at it lately but can't seem to cough up $50.00 for it. I could easily do $25.00 though.

May I refer you to my post on page two of this post.

You certainly may.

Thanks, will check it out tomorrow at work (it's dead right now and I have time on my hands; one of the joys of working in the field.

_Outcast_: I see you're from T.O. I hope you can find a "clear" station for the iTrip to work.

So do I. Someone suggested 90.1 is good but I haven't tried the unit out yet. That will be today's little project. That and trying to find UT2K3 for $25.00.

Well, I went to get Unreal Tournament today but they were sold out. Said they'd have more in tomorrow. I did pick up a new iTrip though. Guess it wasn't a totally wasted trip.
