    UT2004 was one hell of a game

    The last great mainstream arena shooter. Your opinion on whether it was the best ever may vary (I assume quite some people prefer Q3A due to the speed and other factors) but it must be one of my favorite games of all time. Playing deathmatch or onslaught on LAN parties, or even some silly mods. Later custom maps were just amazing. Such a good time. They really nailed it back then.

    I’m curious how this was specifically related to UT2004. One of my favorites growing up.

    An artifact of its time - 2004. Console FPS as a genre was drowning in WWII themed shooters then, but online play wasn’t big outside PC until the Xbox 360 launched service in 2005. If you were playing online FPS then, it probably was on PC, and either Unreal Tournament, Quake, or Counter Strike.

    That one single game for which I want to go back in time and go again on a server with like what 48 or 64 people and play gold rush or siwa oasis. Still best multiplayer game in history for me. So sad that last time I checked a couple years ago it was pretty much dead.
