Expected sometime around February 2004, the Xbox version of Legend Entertainment’s Unreal II: The Awakening will include a modified version XMP — the free multiplayer add-on just recently released for owners of Unreal II for PC.
1up.com have the low-down:
Atari isn't satisfied with simply giving Xbox users a port of the single-player original, however. In addition to a split-screen co-op mode for the story campaign (offline only, unfortunately), the Xbox Unreal II supports online XMP matches via Xbox Live, a feature just recently added to the PC version. Short for Expanded Multiplayer, XMP is a team-based game that borrows elements from Capture the Flag, Domination, and a host of other online matches. Like CTF, whichever side gets the "flag" (in this case, four special artifacts) wins the game, but it's much more complicated than that . . .
Read the whole article here. When you’re done, check out BeyondUnreal’s extensive preview of the PC version so that you know what you’re in for. Even better, if you already own Unreal II — download XMP! |
