BU posted this on their website:
The December issue of Maximum PC contains an advertisement for UT2004. Danny was nice enough to not only make us aware of this, but he also went to the trouble of scanning it in! The ad showcases the UT2004 vehicle, the Manta. Since it's a little hard to read, here's what the ad says:
The greatest gladiator sport ever is redefined for 2004. Now, experience more than double the content of our previous model with refinement for the discriminating thrill seeker who likes their action fast, futuristic, and gloriously bloody.
We introduce the Unreal Tournament range of vehicles. Just one of the massive new additions that comes standard with the UT2004 edition; pleasing to the eye, powerful to the touch, punishing to the enemy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stats about the Manta:
0-40 MPH: 1.6 seconds
Top Speed: 115.2 MPH
Chassis Dimensions: 10.9 X 15.6 X 8.1 ft
Weapon: SM3-64 Gimbalt-mounted cyclic dispersed-plasma acceleration rail gun.
Designed for rapid transportation across frozen wastelands.
Also notice that at the bottom of the ad it says "$10 Rebate with UT2003 Proof of Purchase". That means UT2004 will be retailing for around $30 dollars for all UT2003 buyers (non-buyers: $40) Sounds like a great deal to me!
if you look at the ad: http://www.beyondunreal.com/content/potd_images/mpcut2004127.jpg
you see that it names all the vehicles. above the UT2004 logo, a bit to the right, in light grey.
SCORPION --------> Scorpion
AW-X --------------> Manta or Hellbender?
Liandri DH-85 -----> Manta or Hellbender?
LEVIATHAN --------> Leviathan
J1280G Raptor ----> Raptor
FIGHTER H --------> ??
FIGHTER SK ------> ??
also it says: See our full line of 2004 Land, Air, and Space vehicles at www.unrealtournament.com
i looked there, and i dont see anything..  |
