| | Unreal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Unreal is a first-person shooter computer game developed by Epic Games and published by GT Interactive on May 22, 1998. | | | The Unreal game engine was seen as a major rival to id Software's Quake engine, and the Unreal game itself was considered to be technically superior to the Quake and Quake II titles which were out on the market at the same time. | | | It was powered by an original gameplay and computer engine that now bears the game's name, one that had been in development for over three years before the game was released. |

| | Unreal Engine gameplay network programming is high-level and data-driven, allowing UnrealScript game code to specify variables and functions to be replicated between client and server to maintain a consistent approximation of game state. | | | Different genres of games will have widely varying expectations of player counts, scene size, and performance, so these specifications should be regarded as one data point for one project rather than hard requirements for all. | | | Mod support has been a major factor behind the success of many prominent PC games today, and we anticipate that support for PC-based mod development may be a significant factor in future console games as well. |

| | It is little wonder then that Epic Games felt the need to do a spot of work on their own engine offering, sprucing up the licensable technology in the hope of being able to compete with rival id's new equipment. | | | With Doom 3's "summer" debut fast approaching, it doesn't need a betting man to put money on a something of a re-write of the game graphical rules, especially if what the footage and images suggests proves an accurate reflection of Carmack's latest engine codings. | | | The new Unreal engine 3.0 is of course what will be pushing the latest instalment in the popular FPS series, and probably a myriad of third-party games too if Epic get their way. |
