Advantages: Great Gameplaye, Graphics, Sound, Multiplayer Disadvantages: Erm... Just a couple minor things.
...at a missile launch facility - the game play all-round is amazing.
You will love this game.
~~~~~~~~ MULTIPLAYER ~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~ 9.9 out of 10 ~~~~~~~~~~
I can\'t give the miltiplayer enough respect. I almost gave this a 10! Almost... heh.
Anyway, there are about 13 different game modes! I\'ll list them below
Free-for-All - You are against every player on the map even if you and another player play on the S.A.S. team or the Marines etc.
Team Deathmatch - Use teamwork to kill opposing players and reach score limit or time limit.
Ground War - Big team games-TDM and Domination.
Team Objective - Domination and Search & Destroy. Capture flags in Domination, with respawning. Destroy and defend objectives in Search & Destroy, no respawning.
Team Tactical - Small team Deathmatch and Search & Destroy.
Search and Destroy...

Advantages: A uniquely playable game tailored perfectly for multi-player fun. Disadvantages: The Internet is full of very good players.
..., the four most common of which are available in Quake III Arena:
Free For All (FFA):
A set number of people fighting every man for himself until the frag limit or time limit is hit, whichever comes first.
Tournament (1v1):
Two players battle against each other one-on-one in a short game in a much smaller arena. When the frag limit or time limit is hit, the winner stays on and the next player from a number of spectators joins to arena.
Team Deathmatch (TDM):
At least two teams (or 'clans'), each containing at least two players, battle for victory. Depending on the settings, players may be unable to inflict damage upon their own team mates. The match ends when the specified time limit or team frag limit is reached.
Capture The Flag (CTF):
This is a standard team deathmatch game with an extra element. Each team has a flag...

Advantages: Cutting-edge 3D graphics engine. Exhilarating action set pieces. Interesting assortment of weapons and vehicles. Disadvantages: Frustratingly easy to get killed, especially for a 3D shooter. Steep hardware requirements
...frequent, but I would have preferred a save-anywhere system.
As you would expect, FC features a formidable array of weaponry, including an M4 assault weapon, a Jackhammer shotgun, a rocket launcher, a variety of grenades (Flashbang, Smoke) and some mounted weapons (Mortar and Vulcan Minigun). If worse comes to worst, Jack can also throw rocks to distract enemies. Other equipment includes high-powered binoculars, CryVision goggles (for low light and thermographic imaging), explosives, health and armour.
Multiplayer modes include FFA (Free For All, which is basically like standard Deathmatch, where the player with the most kills wins), TDM (Team Deathmatch, where the team with the most kills wins) and Assault (where one team leads an assault and the other team attempts to defend its position). Assault mode incorporates specific character...

Advantages: More weps Disadvantages: Less "Blow up" walls
...=
You can customise bots to any level be it, accuracy, health, aggressiveness, agility etc etc
You can keep records of the stats you achieve in battle, kills, shots fired, wins etc etc
New multiplayer game modes,
CTF (capture the flag) TCTF (team) Arena-all 4 all
TA (team arena) Death match, TDM, and another game mode that you can unlock, which is a bit like CTF but with more taste and hell of alot more funny
New weps about 15-20 weps
4 types of grenades. Flame, Frag, Sticky, and a capture one that makes your controls go opposite and stuns enemies for easy kills
More power ups

Advantages: Graphics Disadvantages: Still the same engine
...are entered and you must prove yourself worthy. The tournaments have been steadily growing since you last plunged into them, and there is more competition than ever. With many old faces returning to defend their titles, this year’s games will not be a walkthrough.
-Gameplay
One word – Absolutely Stunning. Ok, two words. The core game types (DM, TDM and CTF) are done extremely well, with the addition of a Vehicle CTF game type. On these modes the bots perform very well, as you don’t see one standing, lost, scratching its butt in the middle of a map like you did in UT1. Also, the famous “bot dance” has all but disappeared, However, the bots aren’t so smart on Onslaught. They will take nodes, they will attack the core, they are an effective attack, but arguably they have less of an idea of tactics than UT1 bots did. They leave nodes undefended...

Advantages: Great graphics and gameplay Disadvantages: No Offline multiplayer
...(TDM): Two teams (allies vs axis) of equal size battle it out, each side using its unique weaponary.
Capture The Flag (CTF): Two teams, two flags, the objective capture the enemys flag and bring it back to your home base to win.
Search and Destroy (SD): Two teams (allies vs axis) of equal size battle it out, in this mode there are two ways to score points, either eliminate the enemy or set up a headquarters and defend it for as long as possible.
All these modes are fantastic and will provide anyone lucky enough to play this game with hour upon hour of fun. Can this ever get old!! I doubt it.
The Graphics:
The graphics in this game are mind blowing! the character models are crisp and clean, the world is fantastic and sharp, all of the guns look glorious, the light and shadow effects are staggering, the smoke looks awesome. With so much...

Advantages: Being me! Disadvantages: Living with me!
...through work! The things I teach, (if you get bored at techie things switch off now) are high capacity switching equipment, such as ATM switches, TDM switches etc. (Those non-techies can turn back on now!) I do get to do other type of work, which involves getting my tools out!!
Homeopath – A bigger 5! I really enjoy meeting people, and treating them, trying to get to the root cause of their health problems!! I sometimes do talks at health shows, trying to get people to use more alternative therapies. My favourite success was to cure an old ladies heart problems, so much so that she took up long distance walking !!!!
I also gave a talk at a homeopathic conference in Moscow – which was very interesting (for me)
7. Favourite Colour?
Black/blue.
8. Hometown?
I live in Taunton in Somerset, but I’ve moved around a bit...

Advantages: Good controls, excellent first person angles Disadvantages: After five months constant playing......a little repetative!
...the original part of the game was based on Somalia, many of the online maps are user created, and therefore the range of countries and wars is hugely diverse.
The first time you join, this can seem really confusing, because none of the online maps give players a specific goal to achieve, as in the single-player games. Instead, you are given a style of play. i.e. the option to play as team member, the option to play solo etc....
To best explain how th
