It not Half-Life, but it's good

Graphically stunning, but not quite up to Half-Life for gameplay. I very much enjoy the multiplayer aspects of the game, a lot more than the single player. If you're a die-hard FPS player, go for it. If you want to blow up your friends on line, get Unreal Tournament. If you don't care for FPSs, why are you reading this?

$10?! An insult to Unreal! ...quick! Buy it!

When I got this pack for Christmas, I had heard about Unreal before, but never really saw it, or played it, so I didn't know what to expect. Let me tell you, if the Graphics don't blow you away, the Sound, Music, and Gameplay will. Once again, ($) is a hell of a good deal (...)!

Best bang for the buck

Most enjoyment I've had in a long time for just a few bucks. If you like first person shooters, buy this, you'll like it.

I love this game! I love it to the point I once actually stopped playing it because I was depressed about the poor Nalis getting slaughtered...

This game is a classic that most new first person shooters will be compared to now and in the future. The only problem I really have is that there isn't much variation in enemies, it's brutes, then Skaarj, then Terrans, then Titans, rinse and repeat. Oops! I forgot the serpent people. That's five compared to over 15 in Turok 2.

That and the fact that all the weapons have an aged, worn down look to them, for example, the Flak Cannon looks all rusted, whereas in UT it's all polished and shiny. Of course, I suppose it makes sense considering it sat there for god knows how long (hypothetically of course).

No matter what though, I still love the game, even after a couple years of intense play. And until Unreal 2, I'll have to settle for this even if I didn't like it.

This game is "UNREAL"..............

I have never enjoyed playing a game as much as this one. Then, upon playing it, I realized that there were actually two different games on one disc. So, we got two games at a fraction of what it was worth, and I made sure that others in my neck of the woods knew about it. Five of six people that I told about it went out and purchased this game. It was a little difficult in places, or I just wasn't paying attention, but was greatly satisfied with my purchase. I think that you will be also. Plenty of blood, gore, screams of pain, and the dialogue and story line is easy to follow. Need more games like this one.

Best 3daction game

Well, first let me tell you that I am a major FPS gamer. Half-Life, Unreal, UT, all that good stuff. So when I bought Unreal I was expecting a lot, and I got just a little bit disappointed. But first let me tell you that the game looks great: it looks and runs better than Half-Life, has a great engine, and for 1998 is impressive as hell. The AI is great. The weapons are just right. And the levels (espically second) are pretty good. But then again, having played 'modern' (1999-2001) FPS I was kind of disappointed at the lack of features I take for granite. Like a weapons system that goes both ways, just not one. Having to change items and crap. And the level architexture (espically in the third and part of the second [which is the best looking level]) really sucks. I hate the big, bulky levers. The lack of any speech. And the second enemies... So what I am really saying is that the beginning of the game is kinda slow, but it gets better. If you love UT get this game. It's great.

Great classic

I bought this for $0,48. An amazing price for such a fantastic classic.

Thank you capitalism!

Unreal is a first person shooter with an great single player gameplay and built on an eye candy engine. The story you are a prisoner and you are transported in a spaceship. The ship crashes on a strange unreal planet which looks medieval and futuristic. The inhabittens of the planet the nalis are attacked by the skaarj warriors, The skaarj are very advanced in technology than the nalis. You have to battle the skaarj, Get help from the nalis and escape from the island. The Level design is fantastic but quite difficult expecially the boss levels because of weak weapons. Levels are very beautifully and very well done, The second level when you walk out of the spaceship and take your first look at the strange world is very creatively and very well done. Unreal is built on a very beautifull engine and many games use that engine for their games. The main menu and the advanced menu is very good and very easy to use. I played unreal on the Direct3D video mode and it runs very smooth. The graphics are fantastic, They look great even today. Beautifull sky with birds flying, Water that ripples and fishes swimming in it. For almost every level you could see new types of water, skies and textures. The AI is very good though far from perfect it is much better. On the downside i found the weapons very dull and boring, They should have been more powerfull and more creativily done. Unreal is one of the most beautifull game i have ever played, It is a great game for action game lovers.
