Unreal Vs. Half-Life

[Karant]

Despite this being in a D2 forum, I'm still going ahead asking the question "whats better?" Unreal or Half-Life? :
Personnally I like the Unreal franchise better because I'm a little bit more into the bot-match/sci-fi shooting kinda stuff, like in Halo and Quake.

Half-Life of course...to me Half-Life set the standard for todays and future games

I totally agree Muder. Half-life revolutioned fps games in single a mutliplayer and even mods. It is the best utilization of the Unreal engine of it's time and even more so for years after it's release. Half-life 2 is deffinately going to be an incredible game.

I like both, kinda, it all depends what ya feel like playing at the time.

I'm all about the UT series. I live for the intense speed it runs at, and the unrealism of the combat. I really can't stand most realistic fps's because they play too slow to me, wheras UT is the perfect speed. 200% game speed is a fun challenge too.

2 very diffrent games you cant compare the 2 its like war craft vs command and conqer. even though i say that i choose unreal does half life have cars???

[Karant]

if there sooo different then why are they in the same genre? :S

[[Ghost]]

they are diffrent half life is realistic FPS and unreal is sci-fi FPS 2 diffrent things

[Karant]

true, tho there is a relation between them buddy

[SpoonMan999]

They are different in that Half-life takes in more strategy into the game where as Unreal is more whoever shoots first (depending on their accuracy) has a better chance of winning and it's fun to see how many guys you can pull into a corner and nail with a rocket. Where as half-life there's more than capture the flag and such. But the thing is they are both sci fi fps games and both run off the Unreal engine so you can easily compare the two.

Ya half life and/or its mods (counterstrike) ^^ is the best set of first shot games b/c its so perfect like awp it does too much dmg .. but it also cost the most.. things like that make this game the best :)

[etanol]

Half-Life for sure.

[Aemaeth]

Im gonna say ut, like that guy said. i like fast gameplay..or stealth games...so its kind of strange me even trying D2..lol

[Karant]

well i can understand why u all like Half-Life, tho Unreal! c'mon? have any of you played that and got into it so much that you start whacking the person beside you with a baseball bat pillow you made in home-ec last week?

[[Ghost]]

true, tho there is a relation between them buddy

ya there are but there is a relation between metallica and led zepplin but there 2 way diffrent artists

[Karant]

theres nothing that are the *exact* same

[SpoonMan999]

Unreal - good
Unreal Tournament - good
Unreal Tournament 2003 - same as original UT only shiny
Unreal 2 - crap
Unreal Tournament 2004 - good

So since Unreal has more in the series the comparison isn't really fair.
