Unreal Tournament 2004 Demo Released

JSDopefish writes "The demo for the PC game Unreal Tournament has been released, and Blue's News has a full list of mirrors [including BitTorrent links from GameTab and AIXGaming] for downloading the 209mb Win32 client. If you like classic Deathmatch, it's a great game - I still love one on one deathmatch. The site explains: 'The Unreal Tournament 2004 official demo includes five playable game modes, and offers fans their first taste of Unreal Tournament 2004's two new game modes: the introduction of the hyper-charged Onslaught mode and the return of the fan-favorite Assault mode, which last appeared in the original Unreal Tournament. The demo also features established gametypes like Deathmatch, Capture the Flag and Bombing Run'."

C'mon Bittorrent!

the once a year incremental scheme...makes it feel more episodic

Unfortunately, it seems doubtful that Epic will be releasing the game with episodic prices.

No kidding. I don't understand who could possibly play games on a 9" black and white screen with a one-button mouse anyway. Maybe some Mac people here can provide us with more information.

dopefish, eh?

Probably right after he compiled the source code and the FBI came busting in his door with Valve officials.

Well...

[darkmeridian]

Why make torrents? Well, just in case the original tracker gets, uh, Slashdotted?
