So....UT anyone?

Furthing the brief discussion on TS earlier this evening, perhaps UT could be reintergrated into 5punk's gaming collection?

All of the titles are easily sweepable, but for maximum 5punkage, I'd say go with UT:GOTY (the first UT) as it'll allow all 5punkers to play and will only take up about 1 gig with maps and models.

Yay or Nay?

I can't be bothered to sweep regular UT. 2004 or bust!

Theres no 'None' option, for a moment I got nostalgic but was quickly reminded of the 15gig install and lost all pasison for it

UT04 for me (god bless fuckloads of hdd space)
Either that, or Q3A or Q4 might work

I think everyone got a little bored of UT when we used to play it.

The maps were large, which required a lot of people to turn up to scheduled matches.
The patches and mappacks enormous, and it required 'team play', a phrase rarely found in the 5punkers vocabulary.
Most matches usually degraded into 300% speed instagib rounds on serpantine.

I suppose UT2003/4 would be a good candidate, for a.. .. 'Tournament'.
There. I said it. Double domination or that ball-running thing perhaps?

Quake III sounds like a good wheeze, doesn't need too many players, and matches last 10-20 minutes.
I'd be in for that.

Whoops, I thought I added the None option, maybe not.

But, I'd also be up for Quake 3 fun and games.

Also, I much prefered 2003 to 2004.
2004 felt like an expansion pack with silly bits.

GOTY WTF? - I buy all games at release.

I have every Unreal game (except UT2003, that doesn't exist, you imagined it) and would probably play them if 5cheduled, they're just not that entertaining for me.

Don't know why, but the Unreal Engine games have always seemed a bit indefinably...wrong to me, compared to Quake (or id Tech) based ones. They seem to have got it right with the Unreal 3 engine, though - based on the three examples I've played.

I wouldn't mind UT2k4, but the near infinite gigs of installation and map packs means I probably won't install it again.

You see, 2K3 is exactly the same as UT2K4, but without the vehicles and the never ending storage amount.

LIES!

It doesn't have the sniper rifle. Nor a couple of game modes iirc.

Epic seems to think so, either that or they miscounted when they named the new one UT3

Q3 will make a good 5punky game.
