Is it abandonware?

Unreal Tournament I-based...... late 1999................. come on....

Original: impossible... too old...
and I don't want to buy it secondhand @ ebay or amazon

1999-published = does not fall into the not-newer-then-8-years requirement. So it's a definite no-no.

It sure isn't abandonware. But I have to be honest - I am a huge fan of the Wheel of Time books, and this game was a terrible disappointment. A quick froogle search turned up a decent number of places still stocking it though, so if you enjoyed the game - buying it is really the best idea :angel:

I'm currently reading the sixth book in the series. I don't think the game could measure up.

Great Books, though.

i rented this game when i was somewhere 17 from a public library in the netherlands. Yes i was 16 when the game came out. It was completely and singularly disapointing. I am still a great fan of the earlier books and the latest WoT books (somewhere in between is kinda boring, i still have them and read them every so many years), but that video game was really, really not worth the effort

I have to disagree, i don't know the books and as a game it was excellent,
especially the multiplayer is tons of fun - you know the citadel mode or what it was called.
Sadly nobody is playing it online anymore.
I know it's pretty pointless to reply to a year old comment,
but i was feeling the urge to defend it a bit,
i feel it's highly underrated that's all.
:OK:

there is always a point to any comment

if it is about an old game noone posted about in ages, so what.

its what abandonia is about, keeping old, abandoned games alive. never feel hindered to reply somewhere
