 THE ABSOLUTELY UNSURPASSED CLASSIC FPS!!! November 18, 2007

Where should I begin praising the PERFECT GAME?
Graphically, it may seem dated today yet it was cutting edge at its time. I remember getting the original game, almost 10 years ago, bundled with an nVidia graphix-card - and could not believe my eyes! Beautifully rendered surfaces, exceptional environments and an UNBELIEVABLE sky.
The original UNREAL could easily double as a lecture on game design sound. Majestic background music, mood setting themes and effective environmental additions make this THE PERFECT GAME in that aspect too.
The weapons are well designed, there are in-game upgrades for them and all have two different modes of firing! Walk and there is (adjustable) bobbing. Jump and you better had measured the distance or land in water - otherwise you get torn to pieces.
The game is pretty much linear, yet shortcuts or back-doors are available at numerous points - so exploring is encouraged. Simple puzzles add to the game's appeal (push a lever to drop the ladder here or turn the power on to activate the elevator there) - and usually reward with a weapon powerup.
Something lacking in many shooters even today is UNREAL's balance and fairness: you could take an enemy down with a single sniper headshot - but so could they. UNREAL was the first game that WHERE you landed your shot started to count on the damage it did. EPIC had done a MONUMENTAL JOB!
What separated this game from the rest though were mainly two things: its unsurpassed atmosphere and its immersive story.
From the very first moment you wake up on the prison ship that was carrying you but crashed on an alien planet, you are gripped by fear and apprehension. You get only fleeing glimpses of the aliens - yet find ample evidence of their cruel handiwork on the ship's crew.
The first weapon you get is quite weak so you actually believe to be wandering out of the ship an into a world unknown with a puny phase gun. As the game progresses you are rewarded with both confidence and very impressive and innovative weapons. Who can forget the spinning blade-gun, blades bouncing around and shooting around corners but also yourself if not careful!
On top of everything else, the game is HUGE! The content of the original UNREAL alone would have been released in at least 3 installments today... Not to mention its (included for free!) multiplayer that spawned the UNREAL TOURNAMENT series.
They just don't make them like this anymore...
WITH THE HIGHEST RECOMMENDATIONS !!!

This Game is very old, but the Game it self still stands as an inovation in the 3D FPS world. It's Level's and Total MODability stand next to none at the time and it's ability to handle out door areas with viers height where amazing.
I really was fond of this game and when I saw I could get another copy to replace the one that i lost i had to jump on it. But it's an old Game with dated graphics.
The most influential game of all time! November 17, 2006

This game has awesome graphics for its time, and runs flawlessly on almost any system. If your going to run this game on a dated system, make sure you have a good graphics card (like an ATI rage Pro, Nvidia TNT 2, or Voodoo 2) and a decent sound card. Again, the graphics are absolutely incredible on high detail, 1024x768 or higher, and the sound will blow your mind, especially on 5.1 surround sound. On the highest settings, the graphics are almost compareable to UT2004. The story line is great and the gameplay is very good. The intense multiplayer is sweet, and is where the idea for the original Unreal Tournament came from. Also, Unreal is the first game to have such enviormental features as waterfalls, and birds that you can shoot. This is my all time favorite game because of its shear fun. The weapons are unique and awesome, and both the multiplayer and singleplayer maps are beautiful and well designed. The story mode takes a bit to get into, but once you get ten minutes into it, you can't put it down. The only negative is the skill of the bots in botmatch. You can't really practice if you cant even go near a bot without literally being blown to pieces, let alone kill them. Aside from that minor setback, this is the best game ever made!
