| Complete Trash |
This game is utterly bad, and not just because of the comparison to its prequel. To come after the single greatest online shooter in history, it is an insult, an atrocious abomination worthy of scorn beyond measure. However, even if it were called something completely different, and in no way related to Unreal Championship, it would still be a very bad game. It lacks entertainment value in spades, the story, while actually pretty good, is extremely short and is replaced with the standard tournament style ladders, and the characters are frustratingly bland.
Malcolm, the one really interesting character, can only be unlocked by going through an absolutely excruciating series of challenges, which manage to be both horribly difficult and horribly boring at the same time, which is a triumph in and of itself. The addition of Raiden from Mortal Kombat is a humorous marketing ploy which, while probably making them millions, is gimicky at best.
Online play is no better. Gameplay is hampered by difficult controls and the fact that half the weapons can be easily reflected back by anyone with reflexes and the melee weapon every character starts with. The maps are so bad as to be humorous. Half of them are an exercise in jumping, either off of buildings or into lifts to get on to the buildings in order to jump off them again when you find someone who is below you. The other half are bland and repetitive, every inch looking like every other inch.
All in all, this may be in the top 10 worst Xbox games ever made. The fact that it appends one of the best Xbox games ever made compounds this fact, not that it needs compounding to be blatantly obvious, leaving the player feeling insulted and ripped off. |

| good game |
overall, i found this game to be a lot of fun, especially on multiplayer modes, i had alot more fun playing with friends than i did by myself, i also found some of the single player modes to be a little confusing at times, but otherwise it was a very solid game overall, and i would give it a 9 out of 10 if it had that kind of scale. i would definitely recommend it if you like to play multiplayer fighting games |
