Nuonce!! Thanks for the link!! Pulling it down at 280+ right now....

Try bi-torrent if the servers are busy. The demo is 209M but my machine has already served 10 times that on bit-torrent. Downloaded really fast though.
Demo is a bit short, I want the game now! I like the new "onslaught" mode and thank goodness they brought back Assault.

I wonder if they'll have the game w/o the headset cheaper. I have a MS Sidewinder Voice that works nicely already.

W00t! This deal just got hotter! Gamestop.com has free valentine's weekend 2-day shipping !

So, UT2004SE + 2-day shipping = 39.99

Hmm...There are so many pros/cons on dvd format. Like my folks pc has no dvd player, but mine does. So in the summer when I'm there things could be tricky...oh well. I'm gonna call my local gamestop and see if they will pre-order it for me

Receive FREE 2-DAY SHIPPING on all in-stock orders totalling $39.99 or more! Only one offer per order.

Coupon Code: 2DIS39

After calling my gamestop (I'm 30miles from an EB) the guy on the phone reminded me gamestop.com and the store gamestop are completely separate, and I can not preorder the game there for the web price. Gamestop.com Link

The headsets are likely an insignificant cost(<$5 per), so I wouldn't expect to see an SE without a headset.

hmmm...I went to my local EBgames and dropped 42.79 for UT2K4 SE, not bad imo. I get the game bright and early (10am) March 16. w00t. I rather do that than deal with the mail.

I believe Fritzo is asking about a non SE version of the game. Yes there will be.

The non-SE version comes on 6 CDs though (and is the same price). I would so much rather have 1 DVD for the install...

hmmmm all this talk about the game... I really am not happy with UT2K3, but this is a pretty good deal (just played Team Deathmatch with a friend on original UT 999 frag limit, still r0x

Thanx for the deal, hope 2k4 makes up for 2k3

Am I blind? I don't see anything about the headset on EB's website. Liddle help?

Second paragraph in the description.

My local Best Buy B&M doesn't have this for preorder yet, so no using my 10%-off in-store-only coupon for this weekend, and the Valentine's Day 2-day shipping for gamestop.com doesn't work for me either.

EBgames.com just got another order.

 

[jm0ris0n]

Bah, that shipping code is for instock items only :-/ . Oh well, I also just realized this game will be released during spring break.

Hmm, what to do, what to do

Just ordered. And I used my 10% off code from GameSpot Complete to bring it to $35 before shipping. After the rebate for UT2k3 that's a great deal.

Crap, I forgot about the Gamespot discounts. I could have saved $4.

I'm a GS Complete member. Where do you get the discounts from?

EDIT: NM I found my email

 

[Thoreau]

Snagged my copy from gamestop. Their shipping was slightly cheaper =)

I jumped on this. At least if the game isn't all that, I get a headset.

The game is presumed to be no different from 2003.

Same engine...same weapons...same gameplay. Actually, they added a sniper rifle.
Just some new mods. Ones that are official but not included with 2003 come with 2004, and some that arent official probably inspired other mods that come with the game.

They know the community knows all this, so all this mumbo jumbo about $10 rebate and the headset is just so you buy something that you probably wouldnt buy anyway, since all those mods are free to download.


2004 can join 2003 servers by the way...(not vice versa though)

So wait.. you are one of the people who feel like theyre getting ripped off if they pay 30 AR for a headset and 7 cds worth of material (excluding the bonus)?? Funny everyone keeps saying that this should have been a downloadable patch but I dont see many people downloading 7x~700mbs.

This is a hot deal.

Since I'm in Texas(NY also), I have to pay tax at gamestop.
gogamer has it for 34.90 + 5.99=$40.89 shipping/no tax unless in california.

Just to confirm, that GoGamer price is for the regular edition, not the same as advertised in the OP.

Maybe I missed something above (dont think so, though, cuz I started the thread and been watching closely).

 

[Johnbear007]

I tired the demo. pretty dissapointing. Sticking with BF

 

[Aureias]

From what I've read, 2k4 is a vast improvement on 2k3, especially bringing back Assault... and think of it with cars... and mass firefights.

o yes. I'm really considering this.

Shake fist at anandtech! You're a moneysink!

You're right, it is the regular one, the special edition is definitely much better!

from amazon "Unreal Tournament 2004 DVD Special Edition comes in a limited edition metal box and contains a Logitech Internet Chat Headset for use with the game's exclusive voice over IP (voice chat) technology, as well as an Unreal window sticker. "

 

[jm0ris0n]

With this free shipping can anyone confirm where the order fulfillment centers are located ? (Media rate it appears from both EB and GS) .

I know Gamestop has a big center in Ft. Worth, Texas (Near Dallas), and I have been shipped packages from there before, but I don?t know where EBGames is located or if this is where the 'free shipping' games come from.

I just want to know if its really gonna take me 6-12 days for me to receive my game!

Thanks, Brian

 

[Nightfall]

Ok, after playing the demo, I bit as well. Seems that I play COD and BF1942 a lot, this one will probably be a good game to play for a while.

I hope I get my moneys worth out of it.

 

[kerokeroppi82]

tired the demo, pretty fun
