Anthologies
[edit | edit source]- Unreal Anthology (2006) contains Unreal Gold, Unreal Tournament, Unreal II, Unreal Tournament 2004, and a bonus soundtrack CD.[3] Missing from Unreal Tournament are the improved S3TC textures which came with the original release of the game. Also, the internet connectivity of Unreal in this collection is isolated by having a master server different from that of the original game.
Reception
[edit | edit source]Guinness World Records awarded the series with three world records. These records include, "First Console Game to Receive a Downloadable Patch",[4] "First Console Game to Support Player Modifications"[5] and "First Game to be Created Using the Unreal Engine".[6]
