EPIC Games (Unreal Tournament 3) now available on Steam

EPIC GAMES NOW ON STEAM
Award-Winning Library Available Via Leading Online Platform for PC Games
March 17, 2008 - Epic Games, Inc. and Valve, two of the PC industry's leading technology and content development studios, have inked an agreement to bring Epic's award-winning titles to Steam, a leading platform for PC games and digital content with over 15 million accounts around the world.
The Epic hits now available on Steam include Epic's debut classic, Unreal Gold, as well as Unreal II: The Awakening and the Unreal Tournament series of games, including the recently released Unreal Tournament 3, which has shipped over one million copies to date.
All of Epic's titles available on Steam are offered in the Unreal Deal Pack, an incredible value for just $59.95. And, to celebrate the launch, all of Epic's games on Steam are available for 10% off their regular price.
"Epic is a leading developer of game engine technology and has produced some of my favourite games of all time," said Gabe Newell, president of Valve. "It's an honour to be working with them and offering their current and classic titles to the millions of Steam gamers around the world."
"Steam is a revolutionary technology that opens up an entirely new way to put our games into the hands of millions of PC gamers around the world," said Jay Wilbur, vice president of Epic. "Valve has changed the face of digital distribution for game developers, publishers and consumers, and we are thrilled to be a part of the Steam community."
For more information or to purchase Epic's games via Steam, please visit Welcome to Steam
I must admit, I don't spend money on any PC games anymore, unless it's available through Steam (purely due to ease of aquisition/access). And on that note, I think it might be time to buy Unreal Tournament 3 for a bit of a bash.

In fact, for $54 USD, I might just go right ahead and buy the whole Unreal Deal Pack.

UT3 plays almost exactly like 2k7 - whether thats good or bad is up to you, personally I like it. Has a few less game modes which sucks (Most notably the Assault/Defend style maps) but is still a lot of fun and the graphical improvement is phenomenal.

Unfortunately the game-play has been rehashed since their original release.
Nothing new, nothing exciting :/

I like the gameplay personally and see it as "Why fix what isnt broken?" Only real complaint is the lack of game modes.

Also it looks sexeh at 2560x1600 with AA and AF

the best Unreal game, was and still is in my opinion, the original Unreal tournament. and it had nothing to do with graphics. and that's all they improve apon.

so i take it it's not great? judging by these reactions?
