Midway prepping Unreal comp

This is especially good news for newcomers to Unreal because the whole series is currently out of print thanks to Atari (Infogrames) giving the publishing duties to Midway. Unreal 1 should be fun to play through once for those who haven't already. Unreal II was kind of "meh" I'm sure it's being included for "Completist" newcomers, or completists who missed it @ $40 the first time. UT GOTY is a classic must play game. It's a landmark multiplayer deathmatch title that is as classic as SFII. UT2k4 is also an awesome game, and while many to this day debate whether tht DM aspect is as good as the original UT or not (Some like UT better, others like myself like UT2k4 just a little more) it gives you EVERYTHING UT2k3 did but with better balancing (Which is why it isn't present in this comp, that would be redundant) plus you get the Onslaught mode (Like a Sci Fi Battlefield mode), and the Assault mode from the first UT. All of the games have their merits, and there are thousands who still play both UT's online in droves. This should tide all unreal fans young, and old over until 2k7, and maybe even afterwards.

that is pretty good. i never got that far in unreal 1....... i must say that UT: GOTY was the bomb back in the day.

That's a great compilation to be sure, but I hate spending $30 when I already own several of the games in the pack. :(

Awesome package.... but, man, is it hard to go home again. The original Unreal was incredible. For it's time. I tried to play through it again about a year ago, and just couldn't get past how ugly it was in retrospect. Looks a bit like an N64 game, even with all the graphics maxed out. Still if you can get past that, it does have some awesome fudge-your-shorts kind of moments in it. Unreal 2.... Hmmm...Let's never speak of that one again, shall we? UT: Game of the year.... NOW THAT brings back some memories. Too bad that they can't also sell you the five discs or so of phenomenal user-made maps/mods/skins that were out there. The community is what made that game great. Too bad we've all moved on (or the vast majority, at least). So what you're left with is UT '04. Which is still a PRETTY GOOD game, even though it is a few years old, for $30.... And it does still have a community supporting it (tho not like it used to)! You could do a lot worse with thirty bucks.....

thats well cheap, funny that they missed out ut2003 (since it sucked so bad) i hopethat they updute unreal and return to na poli to be more compatable with xp since my copies of them dont work since i started usin xp :(

Well, it's missing the sub-par Unreal Tournament 2003, which is ok. But Unreal II wasn't all that great either. Thirty dollars for four games, Plus the expansion for the first one, is a great price though.

I wonder if Unreal Tournament 2007 will come to the 360?

yes, we've already heard you mr. mike_mgoblue i would like to see the unreal tournament 2003 game into that box set. perhaps it's redundant, but just for the sake of completeness...

the fps of all fps is back baby oh yeah this is where i started my legacy lol

rather have had UT99 in that pack sted of 04 They're both in there actually. Read it again.

Let's hope Midway has some good servers for those old games

i got Unreal gold, i can't wait for the Anthology

smiley17O I was replying to someone else. That quote doesn't belong to me.

i never liked unreal

Unreal and Unreal Tournament are some of the great franchises out there. This compilation will attract new players to the series, which is always good.

evilbanshee "why dont they include a special edition that has the old games along with ut 2007, that would be a good idea". team xbox talked about how it was being made for the xbox360

Sweet, I was planning on picking up a another copy of UT2k4 anyway since I lost my discs a couple months ago, which wouldn't have been that big a deal b/c you don't need the discs to play the games but I had to reformat so I lost it. But with this being announced I'll just wait and pick up this compilation. UT2k4 ALONE is well worth 30 beans, but hell, throw in 3 other classic Unreal games and I'd pay $50 for it. But @ $30 for all that it's a steal, I can't wait.

I'm not an Unreal franchise supporter, but they did a nice box for collectors. Someone knows if graphics will be updated in some kind of way too? Farewell~~!!

rather have had UT99 in that pack sted of 04

This will be a compilation that would be a must!!! It's very good to see that companies are putting those classic games in the hands of new consumers; and for the ones that played the original, this would be a great time to recall those good old times :)

"why dont they include a special edition that has the old games along with ut 2007, that would be a good idea". Sure but you'll have to pay $80 for it.

Hopefully, UT2007 comes out on the Xbox360 also. At least Xbox360 gets Gears of War.

They need to include the tonnage of maps that were made for UT. I just started playing again and I noticed the folder holding all my UT maps and skins is 1.2GB. Put THAT on a disk.

wow, awesome price for awesome games.

why dont they include a special edition that has the old games along with ut 2007, that would be a good idea.

Seems like a great deal for the Anthology pack, and much like the article reads, I'm highly anticpating UT 2007.

Original Unreal Tournament is an instant klassic along with Unreal 1 & 2. UT 2003 & 4 were great but not masterpiece... I have high hopes for Midway and UT2004. Still no word aobut Unreal Championship 2 for PC??? Please Midway...

wow more crap coming from midway, a company that supports Starforce copyright protection in its midway arcade treasures deluxe edition.

Four games for 30 bucks? Sounds good to me

No UT 2003? I guess it's sort of moot if you have UT 2004 in the package.

awesome!!! unreal for life

Awesome! This will put everything into perspective when playing any of the UT or UC games!

$29.95 Now that's what I'm talking about :P

oh yeah. Cheap, old, but awesome games.

Might have to pick that up.

So is this every Unreal game made in the past?

Cool, now all the kids can see where unreal started!

i'll definitely have to get this. that's a great deal.

Nice thats cool I can't wait to play old and classic Unreal games. 30 bucks not bad at all I just wish this also would be going on the PS3 but this is fine only on the PC it started on the PC and so I guess it should only stay on the place where it was born on the PC. But I can't wait to see the new unreal game on the PC and PS3.
