The real thing?

Strengths: Melee combat, live support

Weakness: Single player could be more robust

Strong melee combat is perhaps the best thing about this latest release in the Unreal Championship lineup. And that's a good thing, because chances are excellent that you'll be doing a lot of it. Of course it's also a FPS, but the hand-to-hand combat is the most memorable. With 50 maps to chose from in multiplayer, there's plenty to do online, and the graphics are easy on the eyes. Overall, a fun...

Fast-Paced Action

Strengths: fast-paced action, great graphics, great online play and multiplayer; lots of replay value; cheap price

Weakness: single player mode is just a lot of fights and very little story

Unreal Championship 2: Liandri Conflict is an awesome and fast-paced first person shooter made by Digital Extremes, those who made the excellent PC shooter, Unreal Tournament 2004. The new things they added for the xbox version are melee combat (with cool fatalities) and third person view. The melee combat is pretty good, and shots can be deflected if timed properly. The feeling you get when...

FPS and a fighting game packed into one

Strengths: variety of gameplay modes, tons of levels, character uniqueness (melee weapons and special abilities)

Weakness: can be unbalanced

If you are tired of Halo 2 and looking for another FPS to play, this is the game for you. UC2 throws in a mix of fighting along with it hectic shooting. In addition, to the varied gameplay, you now have a variety of characters---each with their own melee weapon and special abilities. Add these new features along with 50 or so arenas, you have one hell of a chaotic and fun FPS game. If you have...

Same gameand better quality

Strengths: Superb graphic.

Weakness: I would give 5 stars if it had as nice a single player mode.

Unreal championship and its sequal are among my favorite shooters in PC. The XBOX version of UC 2 exceed its PC counterpart. Superb graphic and smooth game play. Usually I like to play alone rather than play online. It would have been greater if I had been able to play alone in the campaign mode. Otherwise, this is one of the best games out there for XBOX.

Another excellent title on the XBOX

Strengths: Fast and furious, non-stop action for multiplayer

Weakness: Short single player campaign

Unreal Championship 2 is another solid, excellent XBOX game that is unforgiving to the console's processor. It is fast and furious, requiring quick reaction to the environment. The training module was excellent, although difficult at times. The multiplayer option is excellent compared to the solo missions. Definitely a good buy!

Unreal Championship 2

Strengths: Great graphics, smooth gameplay, very balanced

Weakness: Not really any, but if I had one complaint, it would be more customization, more players

This is an excellent online and offline game. The game is a fast paced shooter/brawler with multiple game types. The graphics are amazing for the XBox and there isn't any slowdown at all. The characters are numerous and each plays differently from the others. The maps are very well designed and balanced. This is just an incredibly fun game. It may take some time to learn the controls, and it...

Unreal Championship 2

Strengths: Great graphics, smooth gameplay, unique first person shooter, and great multiplayer.

Weakness: Not many weaknesses. Not as good as Halo.

After seeing the greatness that is the pc version, the xbox had to offer something since it could not graphicsally compete with the pc version. Thus was added a melee system which actually makes it deeper than the PC version. The controller is not a good substitute of the mouse/keyboard combo, but this game is great on its own.

Another solid title in the Unreal series

Strengths: Beautiful graphics, Good multiplayer and online support.

Weakness: Single player campaign is lacking.

The unreal series has been giving great fragfest action for years, and this title is no disappointment to it's history. In a new move for the franchise the first person camera has been moved back to make for a third person shooter, but the gameplay still holds up well in the different format. Great for jumping in a quick game online or spending hours killing your friends, the multiplayer is...

Unreal Championship 2 (Xbox)

Strengths: Great graphics, frantic action, bots for multiplayer, 1st & 3rd person views, melee weapons

Weakness: More multiplayer focused than single-player

Unreal Championship 2 is a fast-paced FPS for the Xbox. It has some great looking graphics, the action is fast and furious across numerous maps. There are both ranged and melee weapons for use, and with the melee weapons, it changes automatically to a third person view, though the 3rd person view is selectable at all times. Multiplayer incorporates bots for single player gameplay, as well as...

Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict

The original Unreal Championship hit XBoxes a few years back as a flagship title for XBox Live, but unfortunately turned out to be little more than a shoddy port of Unreal Tournament 2003. However, the crews at Midway and Epic Games decided to work from the ground up when it came to the sequel, Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict. This time around, the game has a (somewhat) cohesive...
