It was six or seven pages of absolutely stunning in-game shots and a preview of gametypes and how they were really going to focus on the single player story. (Unreal has a single player? :) IIRC it said that 60% of people who played UT2004 actually played it offline so they are really going to pitch to them this go-round. Oh, and everyone gets a "hoverboard" to get to the action faster because the maps are supposedly huge. I'll see if I can find a link to the article. The one glaring omission from the article was that there was no mention of a release schedule at all. Keep in mind though that I was reading this thing in Wal-Mart while my kids were trying to talk me out of a toy each so I could have missed the schedule for release (but I did specifically scan the article for it though).
