In case you haven't heard, Epic Megagames' Unreal finally shipped after four years in development--and the wait was well worth it. Thanks to topnotch-level design, an excellent single-player game, and a breathtaking 3-D graphics engine, Unreal has captured the hearts and minds of action gamers everywhere. Part of Unreal's charm lies in its extremely challenging gameplay, which can become a bit more manageable with the help of Prima's guide to the game. This book starts off with a thorough discussion of the weaponry available to you, providing statistics on the power of each gun's primary and secondary fire options, as well as the speed of the projectiles. Numerous tips, including the ASMD Core "double shot" technique, can help you get the most out of your gunnery. You'll need all the help you can get, because as you'll see in the book's next section, the enemies in Unreal are as tough as they come. Each creature is described in detail, including the many variations on each basic monster. Important statistics such as hit points and special attacks are listed, as is the damage that each creature is capable of inflicting. The next section provides fairly complete walk-throughs of each single-player level in the game. There are no maps, but the text and the screen shots provide a comprehensive description of each map. Finally, the guide explains the basic tactics you'll need to survive online play in Unreal's multiplayer mode. Unfortunately, no book can correct the game's poor Internet performance issues, but when Epic straightens all that out, the multiplayer tips in this book will prove very useful. If you're looking to get the most out of Unreal, the "Next Big Thing" in action gaming, this book (and a really fast PC) can make it happen. --Michael Ryan
