Unreal II's blend of arena-style combat and squad-based tactics was a bold move for the era, even if the execution was uneven. Its commitment to a weighty, almost tactile feel for its weapons, combined with the ability to issue commands to your AI teammates, provided a distinct flavor in a crowded genre. While the story meanders, the game's high points — brutal firefights against varied alien foes, the desolate beauty of some of its environments — have kept it in the memory of a certain kind of shooter fan.
