When I played this game first time it was on Celeron 300A+ VGA4MB and it worked! Very dynamic gameplay with variety of interesting and balanced weapons, very good maps for DM, good AI, good graphics. What is more it's very moddable - you can use mutators to change game rules diametrically, or use mods (there are tens of them) to play something totally different.

Why Epic cannot come close to this masterpiece again is beyond me. Solid. Clean. Fun. Maybe I am biased; this is the first PC game I ever played. I will admit I spent more time playing 2k4, but only because I enjoyed the single player campaign a little more, bots seemed slightly more intelligent. 2k4 was simply the next best thing. 2k3 and UT3 do not touch this.

Good game, I like the guns and the maps. The graphic of the game looks good. The blood and the guts looks really relistic. Anyone who hasn't got this game yet, go and get it.

Best Game ever....Ut2003 is fair but doesnt hold the Original a candle.

I still remember playing this on my Voodoo 3 3000 from 3Dfx. It was the moment I knew that I loved computers, and that I was going to keep having a ton of fun for years to come. This was the second game that gave me "feelings" of joy, pride, anger, and love. The first was Unreal.

Unreal Tournament is one of the best games ever made. It's been seven years since this game was unleashed upon an unprepared PC gaming community and it's soundtrack still holds as the most memorable videogame soundtrack ever made, it's community is still massive and growing & it's online popularity has never faltered. No matter how old it is or how much you've played it, this game just keeps making you come back for more.… Expand

Best fps online shooter ever made. just amazing game in every aspect. i love this game, and before i played UT i was a quaker, i had the 2 demos running, but the UT got me back then. i love it.

This game is one of the few games I have nothing bad to say about. From the GOTY edition, the game has so much in it, and the shooting is perfect to a tee. One of the most fun I've had in an FPS game in years; they honestly should package it with Windows from now on. It's that good.

Should be labelled as greatest stress releiver ever!!!

Simply fantastic, one of the best FPS's out there, and its cheap, if you have a tenner, run, get it now!!, RUN!!

One of the best action FPS games of all time. This is one classic game like no other where the best game modes cannot be beat by other games. Although this game does not have a story, the graphics and the music are terrific.

Yes i suppose to say about this game,it was fun to play and still addicting as ever.I spend playing this game from 2001 and still now i still like this game.The fast-paced gameplay,the graphics,the voice actor,the maps are great and i call this game as the Best 1999 game i ever played.Bravo Epic Games!

If you don't like this game you're a f****** p****. Whoever rated it less than 10 doesn't know **** Actually it should be rated 11. In fact it's the only game ever, with Half-Life, that should be rated 11/10.

Best FPS shooter i have ever played in my life,this was the beginning of my competitive gaming! The storyline and in the mayority the multiplayer were rich in controls and depth gameplay.

Classic. How many hours did I spend playing this game? They're not wasted for sure. I'm still convinced that classic Unreal Tournament was way better than Quake 3 (it doesn't mean Q3 is bad). Maps, weapons, mods, all that make this awesome online fps complete. Well, until UT2k4 came out I had thought this way, but UT2k4 is even more complete awesome fps. Sorry for my feeble english skills, but I hope you can understand what I mean.… Expand

First game I ever played, and still playing it today, despite its age. I can't count how many hours this have kept me awake. This is just an awesome game that needs to be tried out! The graphics are old, but they are actually

even with overly out of date graphics and gameplay unreal tournament is somehow as enjoyable today as im sure it was when first released

Very very addictive...

This game is great on bot play, but is ridiculous on online. SO MUCH LAG, and I dont mean RAM lag, but latency lag. VERY bad support. Can someone tell me what # the latest patch is? I love the music, the graphics, the gameplay, everything, but the lag is infuriating.

Unreal Tournament? Enough said. The name itself holds to the franchise. It's unreal, it's insane, it's ... Unreal! I've been a gamer since my early childhood and I can say that Unreal Tournament, despite its age, still manages to be a very awesome lan party ingredient. The maps have ingenious level of detail and architecture for a game of its age. The weapons can all be used for lethal action and skill comes through who is the fastest and the most preciseful. A split second earlier or late is a headshot or missed headshot. Music, if used, adds up to the chaos of a battlefield in UT. If only, IF ONLY the damned servers didn't have so much trouble with latency. Really, you are better off playing it at a lan party than on the internet. Aside from that, every mode of play gives a unique perspective at the action. Storyline? Who cares, it's in the future and "The Colliseum" is revived through Humanity's crave for blood and destruction. Jump in the arena and frag some fool.… Expand

This is really one of the best fps's of all time. It's kind of like a missing link between the original quake and most modern day online fps- the brilliant, basic, raw action of the former combined with the cleaverness, modes, and general polish of modern games. While the graphics are dated, this should not be a problem for most people, providing you have an open mind about believing 'graphics arn't as important as gameplay'. All that means is that anybody should be able to get it working these days thanks to it's low spec requirements. While I would recommend you go for the later games if you have the money or the hardware to play them on, this original version is every bit as good.… Expand

I'm still playing it, six years later. There is no game in my life that I have played longer, or enjoyed more. UT is the King of Kings

The best game I ever played.

I have UT99, UT2003, and UT2004. I've played UT2004 and I actually removed it and replaced it with UT99. I don't think I've ever been so addicted to any videogame my entire life.

One of the best games ever.... Mods and the mapmaker keep it fresh, keeps me coming back for more.

Best game i ever played....rocks from top to toe, 110% action,skill and teamplay. Started to play 2003 and still playing it like thousands of more peoples. Shame that they dont making a facelift of UT99 and listening to the players that we have said for years...no no...they have forgot whats fun and what people wants....now its eyecandy that rules....

I've probably spent more hours logged into this game than most people have spent logged into WoW. If you play UT, you'll have quite a bit of fun with fast paced fragging from the start; but that's just skimming the surface. If you embrace the UT community and explore what other people have done with this engine, the boys at Epic Games will be your new best friends.

Fantastic first person shooter, especially when you begin to unearth all of the free community made content/mods for the original Unreal Tournament!!

One of the finest pieces of art ive ever played. no when its 2008. it might seem laggy and bad graphics.. but its still the best game ever made(fp,s'e'u category) You cant give it lower

It's 1 of the most brilliant games of it's time. The graphics are still good by todays standards. And most importantly, it's still fun to play today.

A true adrenaline-pumping thrill ride with excellent white-knucle gameplay, which still shines through today. Unreal Tournaments has made significant strides in what has become FPS gaming.

I also have to agree that Unreal Tournament is the best game i've ever played. I got the demo from a friend 6 years ago and I've been playing this game since then. This wasn't the only game of course. I played Counterstrike 1.6 professionally too but that didn't last bacause I always come back to UT. Personally no other game can tip to the flow, action and fun of this one. Definitely worth buying.… Expand

One of my all time favourite FPS of all time, the graphics are very good for 1999, weapons are awesome, music is amazing, maps are designed good, I mean everything about this game is awesome. Multiplayer isn't as enjoyable for me because I get killed 95% of the time. But singleplayer with bots is so much fun. When they're easy, they're easy. When they're hard, its hard. So definitely buy this game.… Expand

Unreal Tournament=5 Links to a Frag Fest.Nothing else, there's no Single-Player campaign with clear missions & objectives just multiplayer stuff.Highly overrated.BTW, Counter-Strike is better when it comes to Multyplayer Shooters.

The best FPS I've played... EVER. This game had me hooked for a solid 2 years, and I still fire it up every once in a while. Team concept is perfect, especially ctf and tdm. My favorite was getting in and mixing it up with some of the best Deathmatch players at the time (the overtoads, nomortals, xspains, destrukts, microbursts, escas, and sooo many more worthy players). This game has the most solid gameplay mechanics and balanced weapons I've ever used. If you were good enough, ANY weapon (yes, including the goo..) could be deadly and turn the fight. Map control was so important, and the best players were able to gain a large advantage by controlling armor, belt, and any other important powerups. I miss the late nights and have fond memories of getting "locked in" and getting accused many times of aimbotting. It's an amazing game and still, to this day, is the best first person shooter. Only game, besides Mount and Blade (Crpg), this is the ONLY game I've felt was precise enough with aim and movement to be completely "skill" based without ever feeling cheated by a shot that looked like it should have hit. If you aimed right in Unreal Tournament, you hit the target (taking ping into account of course). Anyway, long enough. 10 out of 10!… Expand
