Unreal 1 and 2 are awesome games!
Should be at least remasters of them for a newer and wider to play.

God yes, please. Unreal 1 and 2 are gems that were unfortunately forgotten in the shadow of the later Unreal Tournament games.
Not at all. Just thought he kinda moved on. I think it is cool that he's still showing involvement. I have no beef with CliffyB.
This would be dope. Unreal is probably the most underrated 90s shooter.
Unreal 2 was a mistake.
I didn't know I wanted this until now.
I've always been fascinated by this image. I saw this fairly recently the first time (a few years ago but still more recent than when it came out) and I just can't imagine why it looks so impressive. I remember early 3D but it all kind of blurs together in my mind.
Unreal 1 highlight for me was intro of the main cover boy enemy (forget their names). All the lights go out, you don't know what's up and then they appear. Really cool moment back in the day
I mean I remember Quake 2 blowing my mind on PC at the time. This pic is ugly now but was probably very impressive back then.
It's just stupid I think. There's no way you could play Quake and then be incredulous that that's a real screenshot from a similar game. This is from Quake. It's not as many polys for sure, but it's just not that far off.

I remember getting this from the mailbox. Geez.
Finish that UT reboot on a smaller scale and package it with this potential Unreal remaster. You'd make my whole year, Tim.
I know for a fact that there's people at Epic who would love to do it.

If you compare to the Quake screenshot Maya Fey posted, the textures on the character model are just so much more detailed. The detail on the chest, the veins on the arms and legs. The Quake model has very large pixels that are evocative of detail, the Unreal model's textures are actually recognisable.
It also looks like the Unreal model has muscles getting deformed in a realistic way in movement, if you look at the pecs. Just the idea of having a humanoid body that looks and behaves the way bodies work, that was a huge leap back then!
The.first unreal is still one of my all time favorite fps games. Some of the most varied level design in a fps and a great sense of exploration of an alien planet.
Next Gen was one of the best magazines ever printed. Silky smooth papers with screenshots to drool over. I miss the magazine days. PC Zone was the goat for me.

Lol epic producing content that would make the EGS compelling? Not going to happen.
Bring back XMP.
Bring back XMP.
Unreal plays quite well even on new hardware after you install the OldUnreal mod. The biggest issue with it is the extremely tiny HUD if you play in 1440p or above.

First thing that popped in my head. Wish I still had that issue.
Unreal 2 was a much, much better game, I think. Especially once the XMP add-on was released. But the original game was very good looking for its time.

OH wow, I love this cover lol. "Yes this is an actual PC Game screenshot" haha.
