2021 and still listening this masterpiece. 20 years ago my mom used to play this when I was around 6. I was just too scared to play it because it was too dark lol But this song ... I'll never forget the sensation of stunning when I left the ship. One of the most iconic and amazing games ever made.
totally agreed, in 1998 this was a pure experience to play, none can know it unless you have lived it, it happened to me with more games, but, UNREAL, was the best.
2024, still listening to it and this still sounds amazing even though i never played this, but you can tell you're in for a fun time exploring this unknown alien world, and fighting for your life against the brutal Skaarj warriors.
This is probably my single most favorite song from this game. Stepping from the Vortex Rikers for the first time and seeing the Na Pali skyline, the Sunspire off in the distance, the awesome scenery...this game was many happy evening of shoot-em-up fun for me, ah memories.
I might sound cliche, but this game really made me feel like i was on some adventure. The feeling of being lost on a distant planet with weird wonders around every turn is something i wont forget. I wish they would remake this game in a new Unreal engine soon.
Deus ex System shock Half-life Metroid prime Mirrors edge Bioshock and Unreal.... There are first person shooters, then there are first person adventures..
Man, this takes me back... perfect background music for the most JAW-DROPPING scenery ever witnessed in a video game (for the time) It still drops my jaw, now that I replayed it...I just kept asking myself: ''This was made back in the 90s???''
Whenever hear the word "Unreal", I think of the disc (CD, not a DVD ;-)) the game was on. And the text written on the box of the disc. Something like "...Vortex Rikers transports inmates to a planet they are supposed to do their sentences on...". Ah, glorious '90s.
The entire track is amazing, but I could listen to that intro all day long. It just brings me back to that moment of walking off the ship into beautiful, unknown and UNREAL landscape.
I have to say that I'm very upset that I didn't know about this game back when I used to play Unreal Tournament on my iMac back in 2000. I played Unreal on my G4 tower in Classic a few months ago for the first time. The music was incredible to me. It was truly fitting with the first area. Then around 2:30 the music reminded me of Underworld II (DOM-Sesmar song) from UT99 while I was getting chased and shot at by these big, scary Na Pali guardians. Shame they don't make games this good anymore...
+SamVision Alexander Brandon, at the time of the release of Unreal and Unreal Tournament, he created "Straylight Productions", which didn't lasted around 5 years before closing. (from 1995 to 2000 i think)
Man, this song has such a feel of... accomplishing something! To finally emerge from that giant ship that imprisoned you to explore a vast planet. Without this song it wouldn't have been as mesmerizing and breathtaking the first time you played. It's as if it captures the story of the world and tells it in this song.
I wonder if there's still a good FPS which is based on a plot or gameplay, but not on the graphics requiring super-mega video cards that cost an arm and a leg...
Exiting the Vortex Riders was an amazing and memorable part of Unreal. The only games to rival the feeling of suspense and awe in Unreal for me was escaping the hospital in Afraid of Monsters: DC and the pompeii level in Darkest of Days.
When I first played this level, I - probably like a lot of people - ran out of the Rikers, and made a hard left. I got to the edge of the cliff just as the 0:11 "swell" to kicked in, and my jaw hit the floor. That was just one of many reasons why Unreal remains my favourite game of all time. It's never been uninstalled, I play it every couple of years, and it still gives me goosebumps the size of marbles.
Nie mogę uwierzyć, że od premiery minęło już 14 lat.Wydaje się jakby minął niecały rok odkąd Unreal jest na komputerach osobistych ;). Moment kiedy opuszcza się Vortex i wychodzi na powierzchnię egzotycznej planety Na Pali - bezcenne. Zawsze to będzie jeden z lepszych i najbardziej klimatycznych których powodował na twoich plecach efekt gęsiej skórki pomimo upływu lat. Nic dziwnego, że ta gra jako pierwsza w historii czasopisma CD-ACTION dostała ocenę 10 na 10. Sam bym wyszedł ponad średnią
crew of straylight productions - Alexander Brandon, Michiel van den Bos, and many more when music was important in games.....all forgotten now in the mist of time
Unreal 1 - najlepsza gra na świecie. Miałem szczęście, że poznałem tą gre, bo jak słyszę od ludzi, że nie wiedzą co to jest, to żal mi tych ludzi i dosłownie żygać mi się chce :/
"The sound samples for Unreal were from a huge variety of sources but a good portion of them came from my Korg Trinity." These words were messaged to me from Alexander Brandon himself, the god... I mean musician who made this track when I asked him about his samples...... HE SPOKE TO ME!!!! ^_^!!!!! but yeah, thought y'all would be interested about the sound samples.
unreal had one of the biggest impacts on the shooter world imho. the game was just perfect, from the first second to the final fight. it was just such a perfect world, everything was fitting. i remember watching the flight around the nali castle for prolly an hour one day before i even loaded my savegame. not to mention it had coop (patched, but who cares...?) somewhere in my musicfolder i have unreal music slumbering that i exported with the editor :) on that note... reinstalling :P
I'm one of the fortunate few who played Unreal the day it was released, alas, so many moons ago it seems. It reset the bar in visuals and graphics (gameplay was great too). The music though, omfg, revolutionary. I have it all via MODPLUG and listen at least once a week. if you can find it, get it. Also highly recommended, the music from Planescape Torment, though you may need ACM to WAV to get it.
@kuranorppa If you go by the "story", then the PC was female. But really, the main character doesn't have a name. YOU are the main character, so everything is up to you. The character models have names, like Dante or Ash, but they don't really count. Return to Na-Pali kinda ruined it by making your character speak.
@angband84 I would have to agree, no game has EVER topped Unreal, not even todays standards of graphics. No game compares to the awesomeness of feeling lost, lonely and trying fight for your life all the while trying to get off the planet.
Why is there no orchestral remix of this yet? Not another "electronic" remix (there are a lot on TH-cam), but an ORCHESTRAL one. There are good programms with good orchestral sounds.
Perhaps the best adventure game I've ever played, along with Na Pali expansion. it was almost dream like, one minute you're in an ancient arena fighting a Titan, then walk down a valley to find a spaceship! I loved how the journey twisted and turned
i was about 8 or 9 years old, when me and my brother played it the whole day on my uncles pc... of course we weren't allowed to :D but it was fun... and still today i think it is one of the most creative and intelligent shooters ever. and of course, there are no games that got comparable soundtracks, except deus ex and NFS II and III... this music is just epic!
man, i remember getting out of the ship, two strange suns in the sky, the cry of the birds, that little rabbit thing, the hut , the fishes, the waterfall, everybody knows.., greatest moments in gaming. kids dont know what they are losing with the crap that comes out these days.
Despite that nothing serious happens exiting Vortex Rikers, because of this song that moment is as unforgettable as when you entering the Dark Arena level or face the Titan boss.
Favourite piece of the game. No Contest. I can still remember the first time I saw this scene. I ran out of the Vortex Rikers and hung a left. I got to the edge of the cliff, and saw the waterfall at the exact time the "swell" starts (0:12, i don't think that's a coincidence. :-)). I took one look, and I was like wow, Wow, WOW! That's when Unreal won me over, and it's been my favourite game ever since. Everything else gets to squabble about 2nd and 3rd place. :-)
Completely agree with JTG2003. I remeber like yesterday the feeling when leaving the prison spaceship, out to a new and unknown world. The waterfalls, the sound of the wind, the caves... everything was exciting and dangerous. This music was the perfect accompaniment. I'm sure I'll never forget this game.
This is the best track in Unreal. Shivers went over me, when i just listened to this tune, remembering, how it was to start exploration of that alien planet. I remember, that i listened to this track over and over... Its perfect!
Oh, the memories. My dad showing me this as a little kid, stepping out onto the planet, Fighting the Tentacle in the house, the first Brute, Finding diaries, jumping off the cliff (You have to do that at least once), and eventually finding your way to the end of the level.
Thanks, This is my one of my favorite songs in the game. I remember getting out of that cave into and hearing this music while seeing the mountains in the background and the dark blue sky it was awesome.
errr...yet a again i should appologize, since i found my own contradicting comment in my first message...i said that System Shock doesn't belong, but then i said that i can't judge it, because i haven't played it...have to fix myself (hate to do that but still...)...other games i never played or heard of are Mirror's Edge and Metroid Prime...i judged them as uncomaparble and not worthy games to those other three, because if my memory serves right Metroid Prime and Mirror's Edge is not...
those three System Shock, Mirror's Edge and Metroid Prime might be good games, but they're never as huge as other three monsters of industry (Unreal, HL and Deus Ex)...thats from my experience...yet again i like i said that might be just me living in a country, where other things are popular, than what is popular in your country...
lets just say...i never got a chance to play it...that would be more like it...however from my experience i can tell, while other games like Unreal, Deus Ex and Half-Life were huge and recognizebale hits, there was no mention of System Shock amongst them...either that, or i just live i na country where this game is just not popular...
Birds singing ... that lovely nali rabbits criing ... clear blue sky ... the vision of freedom and beauty on a totally alien planet ...but wait ... what is that confusing feeling in your stomach? what do you even afraid of? The unknown? Eh. Atmosphere indescribable. The sight. The sound. Masterpiece, the game and the music alike.
than i just misunderstood you, when you said "blew ass" i thought you mean in a good way...its like when people say "the shit" they actually mean not exactly what this word actually means LOL...sorry for confusion and i agree with you, but like i said i never played System Shock so i can't judge it...
...and by cultivated trends i mean, those kind of games, elements of which other games and franchises try yo copy, because of how original it is...and those elements could not only be gameplay tied, but it could also b physics tied or atmosphere/vibe tied, weapons design etc...
...and i don't think Bioshock belongs here...don't get me wrong its good game and all, but its nowhere nearly as good as those other three franchises i mentioned...it just not fair to compare it to them, because those other three games aren't just games, they're more like cultivated trends...
Damn I never had time to end Operation Na Pali, Nali Chronicles and Legacy. They are so good, but a bug in the first level of NC and the incompatibility of Oldskool extensions of ONP and Legacy doesn't make a player's life easier.
Yeah, that and when you go down that long hallway. You push a button and it gets all quiet...then the lights start flicking off one by one...until one of those Skarj (If i remember right) comes out of the wall and attacks you! Awesome game :)
I personally don't see what's the fuss about GoW, though i can see why Epic cherish the title for obvious reasons. They also buried Unreal II along with its predecessor's legacy, i don't know, but Epic has changed a lot over the course the time.
I love this game. I still play it today. I will remember this game forever. Unreal is a masterpiece. I used to play multiplayer with my friend and we stayed up ALL night playing coop multiplayer. It was great. I wish more people would play it.
@Atrahasis7 that`s an amen bro. still play Infiltration Coop with unreal Maps. hell, and those single player mods that came out.....Illhaven Saga, Shamuquest, Towers of Shrakita....wonderful
You mean those game trailers pretending to be an awful Hollywood epic. There was a time game trailers was just to show you what the game is. Today, its gimmicky. Half Life 2, Assassin's Creed came to mind.
One of the best in game experience ever, large open playing area gave the sence of freedom diffrent to doom and quake were you were always in side, to bad epic broght out UT it spolied the whole series :(
The Action music still blows. I am curious why Epic completely abandoned their main franchise to go after the battle royale genre. Oh well. Their loss.
ya im just so used to the birds going off at a particular part lol sounds odd without any.....should reinstall the game sometime and play the game again lol its just sitting here
@ChromeBallz Theif was an extremely hard game, i could not figure it out for the life of me, but it was good, Nothing beats Unreal in FPS/adventure games with no cutsences or voices
wat happened to the birds? lol i keep thinking theres a part in there where theres a bird overhead thats sposed to go "eeerrr!"....or whatever how u spell their sound lol
glad im not the only one... most games of today are so generic. There are only a few games with so much atmosphere as unreal. The music did so much to the imagination!
@Gam0rDude Game0rDude, i'm 14 years old Those "poor" boys that can't appreciate Unreal sagas, or Deus Ex, or Oblivion, Fallout 3 Sagas. . .they're gone.
@Nastor1996 Wheel of Time wasn't all that good imho, though Hexen 2 and Thief might be the only mideval FPS that are really good... Or that even exist.
That moment when you first step into Napali after being trapped in a dark, run down ship and you're just completely mind blown.
dont forget, it was a prisonship afterall
@@BrainDeadKenny Vortex Rikers
That moment back in 98 just grabbed me, and didn’t let go.
@@Y2Kr4SHM4N still grabbed me 20 years later
Unforgettable!
this game was another world
Tobias Skog Gamepress entitled this as an Quake-killer back then

I think Another World was Another World...
You wrong my friend.I don't think this game was another world.
This game was Unreal!
No, it was Unreal.

2021 and still listening this masterpiece.

the Na Pali is real world in kauai island, hawai, usa and earth
it was the third game for my old pc that i bought, after doom and dark earth , almost 20 years ago , good old times
Excatly. You feel the same that's I. I feel the breath of fresh air of Na pali air in every play :)
EXACTLY!
I might sound cliche, but this game really made me feel like i was on some adventure. The feeling of being lost on a distant planet with weird wonders around every turn is something i wont forget. I wish they would remake this game in a new Unreal engine soon.
Fingers are still crossed
this song literally tells you that you would need to overcome many difficulties to survive and leave this planet. anyone agree?
I mean, leave na pali.
completely agree
yeah, the music talks, something that nowdays is ... non existent
Deus ex
System shock
Half-life
Metroid prime
Mirrors edge
Bioshock
and Unreal....
There are first person shooters, then there are first person adventures..
Legends - That will never be *FORGOTTEN*
Yep, they're first person shooters alright
Man, this takes me back...
perfect background music for the most JAW-DROPPING scenery ever witnessed in a video game (for the time)
It still drops my jaw, now that I replayed it...I just kept asking myself: ''This was made back in the 90s???''

And Isotoxin: Im joke with you?
I wish I'd met someone who liked Unreal as I did.
Yeah booiii
I am here Man :) Best game ever
You've just met with one
The entire track is amazing, but I could listen to that intro all day long. It just brings me back to that moment of walking off the ship into beautiful, unknown and UNREAL landscape.
Great intro to a game. The inside of the vortex rikers made it seem like unreal would be just a prettier Quake 2... then you get outside.

I have to say that I'm very upset that I didn't know about this game back when I used to play Unreal Tournament on my iMac back in 2000.

Then around 2:30 the music reminded me of Underworld II (DOM-Sesmar song) from UT99 while I was getting chased and shot at by these big, scary Na Pali guardians. Shame they don't make games this good anymore...
Reminds me a lot of Deus Ex musics.

This has got to be my favorite of all of the Unreal songs. It is just so relaxing.
Will we ever see such an revolutionary fps-singelplayer experience again? One can only hope :)
I bought this game in 1999 i still have the original box, good old times gone forever :(
I wonder if there's still a good FPS which is based on a plot or gameplay, but not on the graphics requiring super-mega video cards that cost an arm and a leg...
Exiting the Vortex Riders was an amazing and memorable part of Unreal. The only games to rival the feeling of suspense and awe in Unreal for me was escaping the hospital in Afraid of Monsters: DC and the pompeii level in Darkest of Days.
combat begins 2:35
This has got to be the best composed sound track for setting the scene of any video game to be released. Simply amazing!
When I first played this level, I - probably like a lot of people - ran out of the Rikers, and made a hard left. I got to the edge of the cliff just as the 0:11 "swell" to kicked in, and my jaw hit the floor. That was just one of many reasons why Unreal remains my favourite game of all time. It's never been uninstalled, I play it every couple of years, and it still gives me goosebumps the size of marbles.
I was one of them. That moment made an impression on me that Stoll hasn't been forgotten.

Nostalgic indeed;) very good track for this level exploring a strange alien planet...
The first lesser brute encounter.
A yes the memories.
If this game didn't touch your emotions when you played it, then you are truly dead inside and incapable of love.
Perhaps the best adventure game I've ever played, along with Na Pali expansion. it was almost dream like, one minute you're in an ancient arena fighting a Titan, then walk down a valley to find a spaceship! I loved how the journey twisted and turned

tears in me eyes .. i hope such style is coming back in the futuer games .. i just love it
This game was awesome! I loved the way u came out of the crashed spaceship and the music changed when the world opened up! Epic!! XD
Awesome soundtrack!

I'm with you on that, I can still remember the feeling. No such moments in today's games. And the music, fantastic!

I know a spot in France that reminds me of Napali and Nileye falls (?). Every time i go there, i hear this song in the back of my head...

Yeah, that and when you go down that long hallway. You push a button and it gets all quiet...then the lights start flicking off one by one...until one of those Skarj (If i remember right) comes out of the wall and attacks you!
Awesome game :)
I personally don't see what's the fuss about GoW, though i can see why Epic cherish the title for obvious reasons.
They also buried Unreal II along with its predecessor's legacy, i don't know, but Epic has changed a lot over the course the time.
this is the best one, gives me chills every time I play this game
Unreal + Unreal Tournament + Icewind Dale + Deus Ex = Best soundtracks
I love this game. I still play it today. I will remember this game forever. Unreal is a masterpiece. I used to play multiplayer with my friend and we stayed up ALL night playing coop multiplayer. It was great. I wish more people would play it.
2:30 Woke up bliss --only 10mins to get ready for work!
@Atrahasis7 that`s an amen bro. still play Infiltration Coop with unreal Maps. hell, and those single player mods that came out.....Illhaven Saga, Shamuquest, Towers of Shrakita....wonderful
You mean those game trailers pretending to be an awful Hollywood epic.
There was a time game trailers was just to show you what the game is. Today, its gimmicky. Half Life 2, Assassin's Creed came to mind.
One of the best in game experience ever, large open playing area gave the sence of freedom diffrent to doom and quake were you were always in side, to bad epic broght out UT it spolied the whole series :(
The Action music still blows. I am curious why Epic completely abandoned their main franchise to go after the battle royale genre. Oh well. Their loss.
ya im just so used to the birds going off at a particular part lol sounds odd without any.....should reinstall the game sometime and play the game again lol its just sitting here
@ChromeBallz Theif was an extremely hard game, i could not figure it out for the life of me, but it was good, Nothing beats Unreal in FPS/adventure games with no cutsences or voices
wat happened to the birds? lol i keep thinking theres a part in there where theres a bird overhead thats sposed to go "eeerrr!"....or whatever how u spell their sound lol
glad im not the only one... most games of today are so generic. There are only a few games with so much atmosphere as unreal. The music did so much to the imagination!
@Gam0rDude Game0rDude, i'm 14 years old
Those "poor" boys that can't appreciate Unreal sagas, or Deus Ex, or Oblivion, Fallout 3 Sagas. . .they're gone.
one of the best things i've ever heard
@Nastor1996 Wheel of Time wasn't all that good imho, though Hexen 2 and Thief might be the only mideval FPS that are really good... Or that even exist.
