I can't play that map without remembering that crazy German kid screaming

Back in the day ordering pizza was difficult.

Unreal Tournament 99 > Quake 3

 

[FIREKNIGHT2029]

One of my favorite games of all time. I’m still pissed epic killed the latest UE in favor of Fortnite

 

[ScHlAuChi]

I own both games as big box copies and played both back then
Quake 3A´s movement was abit better than UT´s, but it was inferior in every other category:
- Game Modes (UT had more variety & mutators)
- Maps (had alot more good ones compared to only a few on Q3A)
- Weapons (UT had more weapons and altfire modes)
- Music (UT is miles ahead compared to Q3´s tracks who all sound the same and are pretty forgettable.)
- Mods (UT had a gigantic modscene compared to Q3)

Cant deny the facts

Yep. Unfortunately, that’s why we don’t get them anymore. No recurring revenue after they’ve been initially sold. Exactly why UT4 got dropped like a hot potato when Fortnite took off.

Yup, its a damn shame

ohh i miss a good arena shotter. Lot's of fun with Unreal 99/04 and Quake III. Once in a while i put the soundtrack on youtube

 

[Complistic]

Love LGR, will give this a watch later.

 

[MiguelItUp]

Definitely will watch this. I miss UT so much.

Also, I'll never stop hating Epic for just sweeping the new UT project under the rug.

 

[cinnamonandgravy]

loved ut99
was really excited for ut2004
even played a couple leaked alphas.

ut2004 killed my excitement for the series.
felt cartoony and loose.

and of course ut99>quake3
absolutely no competition

UT2K4: ECE was one of the very first games I played on my first new PC, and I have a lot of fond memories of that. Both that and UT99 were really my (re)introduction to arena shooters, but also new PC hardware, now that I think about it. A Voodoo3 for UT99 and a whole new PC for UT2K4. I'll still pull out either game every now and then. I played UT2K4 last night, in fact.

Peak of the series? I think so. Definitely feels like the most refined, and I say this as someone who put a LOT of time into UT99 way back when. There's so much on offer

Now, if only Epic Games would stop being shitters and put ALL of the Unreal games back on digital storefronts where they belong. I'm happy I got UT99 and UT2K4 from GOG when I did, but FUCK Epic Games for pulling those games off GOG and Steam. In the meantime, there's always the high seas.

I somehow erased UT2003 from my memory banks. UT99 is still the bees knees.

 

[nikos]

UT99 is the best FPS ever. Perhaps the best multiplayer game ever for me.

UT2K4 was great as well.
