I was (And still am) skeptical of these things running in a browser (Really, they are running on their own, just framed in the browser with the social thing), but I think it’s better to see GarageGames behind it and in a browser, than someone else and not.

Unreal Tournament is already available for super-cheap on Steam. It works fine in XP (Unreal & Unreal 2 have issues on my machine).

WANT.

Now give me a version that doesn’t run in a browser, and I’ll fiddle with Wine until it works.

The best thing about T1 was definitely switching between canned voice chat options really quickly to splice together amusing directives.

“Now…Dance!”

Great stuff.

Whoo hoo! I can’t wait, Tribes is possibly my most favourite MP game ever. With OFP co-op running a close second.

I played Tribes and Tribes 2 competitively back in high school/college. Great times. I don’t think I’ll ever sink that many hours into a game ever again :P.

Tribes 1 was the better game, overall. Tribes 2 was slower paced, and IMO the maps and movement mechanics weren’t as good.

@ TheLord
Well, Instant Action does have extra features, match making, whatever, not sure about scoring, so, any game they adopt will have those inherent improvements, not to mention renewed fanbase, can’t exactly dig up Tribes and easily find players, while adding it to their roster makes it a potential choice for all their users.
