Unreal - Hub 3 (SunSpire)

[dynamicwolf]

The whole Unreal soundtrack is just EPIC. Nuff said! Thank you Alexander Brandon and Michiel van den Bos again and again! You gentlemen rock the house! PERIOD.

[RandomGenerator100]

7:15 - 8:28... It's always and forever my favorite part!! :D

[Pulseczar1]

@RandomGenerator100 Yeah, I really like it the most starting at around 6:00, with the part you're talking about being the best. Too bad that part didn't go on for longer. I could listen to that for a long time. Love Unreal 1 and Deus Ex 1 music!

[toobles3]

@KobaltKiller i remember spending weeks in that tower when i was little lol it was soo confusing

[blazejames47]

my God 7:26 gives me shivers

[Kaokli]

Unreal is everything superior to Quake 2

this game is the best!!

[jackoneill45]

I remember reading a review somewhere, i think it was from gamepro, where the guy praised the game a lot but said the music sucked and you were better off putting one of your CDs in instead...

...what a fuckin moron.

[ICEFROST777]

@jackoneill45 i agree this music is great

[CountShadow]

@jackoneill45 ... the fuck? This guy doesn't have a fucking clue what good video game music is about.

[arcotroll]

@KobaltKiller Νο...maybe you just enjoyed it that much!

[raahullee]

Will we have another game that's gonna have half the soul as Unreal did?

[Adias711]

i miss this game so bad!

[byerscm]

@Adias711 its still there it has a lot of players and servers be sure to go to the old unreal website and download the 227h patch to join the updated servers

[zapp145]

it's like Deus Ex, if you mention it, someone WILL reinstall it

[Chocky0424]

after 1:00 ; Nice. I love this Game, 

[Orochisaga]

The first Unreal will always remain my favorite shooter game.

[SuperMario811]

Michiel Van Den Bos really outdone himself with this track. It's like the song is saying, "Good night, Na Pali...."

[MarkHamburglarGecko]

You people uninstalled in the first place?

[toobles3]

@MarkHamburglarGecko No we just got better computers? I know i did lol but if you uninstalled it..i dont know whats wrong with you

[Ironclad404]

Reinslalled

[PanzerNils]

7:15 was boring

[HUNComrade92]

I like to listen that song on hot summer nights like that one, with a beer in my hand. Its beautiful and peaceful and I just love it :)

[velocirapteryx24]

O yes the sunsspire great level design, the middle part of the song does not play ingame. 5.40 and further play's when you're in the sunspire and on top of it.

7.16 and so on: beautiful.

[RobertZFord]

1 noun verbed description

[Juicio87]

1 guy doesn´t reach the top and felt in to the lava.

[DaLooseGoose11]

@Juicio87 NICCCCCCCE...

[MarkMifsud]

Always loved the Unreal composers and this track specifically brings back wonderful memories, especially the second part when it gets more rhythmic. classic

[leinchu124]

Download Unreal Gold and remember old times used without CD

[FPSBxUrBAN101]

I almost cried, This used to be a really great game.

[enclavebg]

Ohhhhh... I remember those days... When I bought 3Dfx's Voodoo 2 and played Unreal in its highest beauty ! Amazing atmosphere ! Amazing music ! I am so grateful that I played this game, cought those times and felt this game as it should to be felt. It is a masterpiece !

[Drugf4c3]

@enclavebg lol voodoo 2 & unreal !, lets dance 8-)

[SilkyMuggs]

I used to get stuck in the sunspire for hours, and I loved it.

[oboro83]

This music is so wonderful. I played this game really much and one of my targets was to stay in some room in the sunspire for listening this music several times!!

[megrifter]

words can't describe the greatness of this game

[Wharwulif]

Never got the honor to play this game,but at least I got to hear it's amazing soundtracks XD

[TearsDarkenHumanity]

Wow. Nostalgia........ sigh.

[ICEFROST777]

@edroy i miss it too

[EdRoy01]

Miss the hell out Unreal...

[arcotroll]

1 person got sunburned

[Aussie50]

@arcotroll Or fell down one of the lift shafts and exploded at the bottom :D

[ICryOverSpiltMilk]

Unreal, this is how computer games were meant to be!

[siumot78]

wait for remake , cool game, nice music with bad format ;)

[Nastor1996]

Axatar for president. Before 7:15, its something. . .mystical. . .unreal.

[SarothCyngus]

Why does only one remix of this exist?

[Kapryagos]

I once learned (by ear) how to play the whole end after 7:05 on acoustic guitar! :D

[apocalypserik]

reinstalling

[FELIPEPKPK]

FUCK they NEED to remake this game in unreal engine 3 SOMEONE HAS TO REMAKE THIS GAME

[apocalypserik]

@FELIPEPKPK i've been thinking the same ever since they launched ue3 :(

[DDRrez]

@FELIPEPKPK

totally agree, someone began development on the first level in the unreal engine 3, but he seems to have deleted his you tube video.

[toobles3]

@FELIPEPKPK Remake teh game to be the same but only with BETTER graphics, and a bit longer, more puzzles and shit, it would be the BOMB!!

[RonTaboga]

@FELIPEPKPK

Yes but it would had to be a true remake, not a new easy console kiddie gameplay shit stuff we always get as games nowadays. Remastered Version of EXACTLY THIS Music tracks, EXACLTY the same levels graphically and detail improved. And the most important, the Atmosphere has to stay the same!!!!

[FELIPEPKPK]

@RonTaboga  totally agreed

[EdikShepherd]

After 7:20 it feels like after ascending the spire, at the peak, you reach high into the air and sweep the very stars with your hands. Time and space slip between your fingers, and all the mysteries of every world appear to you.

[t0r4g0wn4g3]

@EdikShepherd That's deep man.

[fdn777]

I remember getting this game as a bonus with my soundblaster Live. I cannot express what i felt when i entered this world. It was like magic, it consumed me, took me from the real world and put me in a fantastic, melagholic, epic, full of fears world. Every single time i loaded this game i felt the same way. Graphics technology, gameplay AI and music composition expressed the high intelligence of its creators. Respect EPIC.

[Pulseczar1]

Unreal had some of the best music in video game history.

[KongOpusMagnum]

@Pulseczar1 unreal is one (or maybe THE) best video game in video game history. i reinstalled it months ago and it still keeps me shooting through all this levels. and more important, after all this years it still blows my mind. fuck far cry, fuck crysis, shit on MWF, piss on Battlefield, ... they are all wussies compared to this masterpiece of pure manlyness. i still love to chopp of the enemies body parts.

[solarix]

This is where games were about game play and graphics were a bonus. In this games' case the graphics were way ahead of its time!

[MyNameIsBucket]

@solarix You're not kidding. As a bonus, you didn't even need a great graphics card. You could set the renderer to "software" and you'd still have the awesome graphics.

[wesNYC]

Sunspire :)

[korark]

Oh, how awesome it was - to blow skaarjes away into the abyss with asmd!

[MyNameIsBucket]

@korark When I'd get to the top and jump off for fun, I would actually get a shot of vertigo up my spine.

[sporeodst]

this is when games were great when you actualy had to THINK and not just run around and get 5 hours of gameplay this and half life 1(and expansion's)were the best

[LoonyChris96]

i just started playing this game again a few days ago and yesterday i was on this level i actually backtraked and got lost on purpose just to hear this music and no other level has made me do that yet so i guess thats the effect that unreal masterpiece music has on you.

[sporeodst]

@LoonyChris96 me too O_O only i got to the level after sunspire(spent 2-3 hours to get there)and ten died and realized that you have to respawn back wherever you saved,i saved back at the part where you fight the robots(2 hours earlier)>.<

[LoonyChris96]

@sporeodst so youre at nali haven? well that level wasnt to hard at least but maybe was cuz i tried to preserve ammo and single them out into open ground, i wasnt that long at least but now im frikkin lost at nali castle i did the abbey thing and killed that giant mom eyeball thing that spawns more of those damn things. and those robots are crap compared to a stone titan

[LoonyChris96]

@sporeodst wait i dont think there are any robots in na pali haven so wich level are talking about cuz confused? or maybe youre talking about the mercenaries?

[sporeodst]

@LoonyChris96 im talking about unreal gold and its like trekkevania or something there are like robots andthey have green blood and you can shoot there headsa off easily :P

[LoonyChris96]

@sporeodst the mercs youre taking about they aint robots they sound like one that is all

[sporeodst]

this was also back when games would last more than a day and you could spend week's trying to beat them,and then wanting to go over it again with cheats...what happened...

[sporeodst]

true game ,with this you did not have little kids running around saying"its the best game ever"

[rkhussain]

the only and only part of unreal where i was impressed by its sound tracks

[justushukka]

Can't see why they left this out from the original game. This is from the beta right?

[volvomantom]

@justushukka @justushukka No. This music starts playing in Spire Village and The Sunspire. The music from about 5:40 onwards plays when you get deep into the Spire.

[zombienoob22]

Very calm and beautiful.

[yoorheinez]

I absolutely love this tune, i have so many fond memories of playing this game. The maps were huge! I always loved the map where the big spaceship crashes infront of a small pittoresque village. Goddamn it I have to download it again, lol.

[EJArendee]

Best adventure game I've ever played. Music fit perfectly and never gets old. I wish it was possible to marry and have sex with this game but it isn't, so I wallow in my sadness for now.

[St16en]

I've played and beat this game over a decade ago. This game was more than a game, it was an odyssey. The levels were so huge and so breathtaking it could go on ad infinitum ad nauseam.

[RonTaboga]

This is absolutely epic. It gave me chills when i first heard this in 1997, and it still gives me chills when i hear it today. The composition is a real masterpiece. It produces an unbelievabily dense and great atmosphere, which no game since this time reached. Just Love it! One of the best pieces of Game Music ever created....no...one of the Best overall Music pieces ever compsed!!!!

[DepletedUranium238]

This is the best track in the game (along with Shared Dig). Very atmospheric and from 7:15 and onward it is simply epic.

[PiccoloNamek]

Absolutely breathtaking and incredibly haunting. Just hearing it gives me a huge flood of feelings, memories and images.

[autioooo]

The ambientations....the musics......Unreal IS THE game.....

Undoubtedly continues to be today the best game ever.

[Saiphedias0815]

Totally agreed.... it's what I use to tell the kiddies today playing GoW and stuff ;)

Part from 0:52 to 1:00 is just genius !!!

[JoakimfromAnka]

One of the most memorable places and song in the game I would say. So peaceful place. :)

[Drugf4c3]

they shouldve made the climax last longer :)

[piroman665]

going to play it again today

[Mshitflood]

this is special isnt it

[FELIPEPKPK]

This game is SO imersive

[EdikShepherd]

7:25

I don't know why, but that is just the most awesome sound you could ever hear

[zeektyhbomb]

I haven't played unreal in years, yet this specific song, especially the beginning 2 minutes, have stuck in my head like a haunting call from the past. i feel like playing this game again.

[jajtube]

if you do it

it will be like you're in an old dream again, its really an experience

everything looks so familliar

[Rohtix]

I just finished this map about an hour ago. Its the most funI've had all day. I was playing codmw2 earlier too.

[Wysthric]

Holy Shmidt... This is rock to the maxx.

[ad3407]

I think that Unreal Soundtrack is the most beautiful Audio Path in PC games since today. I've never heard something better. I think like that since I'd started and finished this game in 1998-99.

[quiteobserver]

when i first played this level it was soo scary, this tiny path among lava deep undernaeth....soo amazing soo mysterious...

[RedheadMetalC]

shit..this song deservs lyrics!!

i feel like to sing but dont know lyrics.

[Drowfan]

After 7:15 it's extremely beautiful!

[pulsarion]

@Drowfan I agree with you :)

[sibalnom]

@Drowfan definitely

[bpeterdude316]

as mark rein said, its fucking unreal! FTW

[lilmonkey79]

i like the bit at 7:17

[thEsPamer106]

god i love unreal..

just amazing....

[Usamaibnladen]

Best soundtrack part of Unreal I.

Amazing.

[Maximumninja904567]

Good Music! Where Get the music?

[Tuthor]

Convert the files to wav by using ModPlug Player and then to mp3 with some other converter.

[Aaidas2]

@Tuthor Or just download the mp3 from youtube...

[DeathPenguin1000]

This was the best game I ever played but god this level was frustrating, so dark and so much elevators. :P

[volvomantom]

Yeah, far too many choices. It was hard to work out which was a new area and which areas you'd already been to.

[jackoneill45]

Funny, i thought the same thing a while ago, but i just played it yesterday and went up random elevators and made it to the exit fairly easily. Still took a while, but not really any backtracking.

Damn, this game is awesome.

[XxDunklerPilotxX]

good story

good music

very good game

[WFrag]

Absolutely true. One of the most atmospheric games Ive ever played.

[cero815]

YES! I hope they'll do a remake some day :)

[jn2006]

awesome

[Spartan117A1]

Brings back such good memories D:

[Axatar]

Unreal, back in time, games were made to be played, not to be sold.

[volvomantom]

Amen, brother.

[Spartan117A1]

Oh shit... Excellent point :D

[SlyGamer1000]

@Axatar Beautiful... Started to play the game a second time and I have to say that it'll never become boring though I know the story! Today's games are only made to be sold. You're absolutly right! In the past the developers made games with love, today they do it with $'s in their eyes...

[sporeodst]

@Axatar and meant to have more then 5 hours of campaign ,you could spend weeks playing UG....gud times...

[RonTaboga]

From 0:49 to 1:40 this becomes a real masterpiece of music art in my opinion. This single track produces more atmosphere than all that crap together that is played in present games.

[GyfuSaugil]

Unreal is really great game... The Game story is good, music is good, graphic is good(man, this is old game, realize it) all pieces together, it is one of the best games.

[JoakimfromAnka]

This place is so calm and beatiful. But a hell to orientate in!! I get stuck in the elevators and dark chambers all the time.

Btw ever tried to ride the fastest elevator and shoot a razor straight upwards? The elevator is faster so the razor will hit yourself. xD

[xBlueWyrmx]

Love the part from 7:05 to 8:28

[ymk89]

The music in this is TOO good.

[Spartan117A1]

WAAY too fucking good

[DemonicFireFly117]

God, I want to live in the Sunspire. It seems like such a nice place if it wasn't controlled by Skaarj.

[volvomantom]

I'd be happier in the nearby Spire Village.

[DemonicFireFly117]

What about the Nali Haven?

[volvomantom]

As beautiful as Na Pali Haven is, what with it's Nali statue and town square, I'd still want to live in Spire Village.

[DemonicFireFly117]

Why then?

[GGMasterKula14GX]

6:25 - 8:28 very beautiful atmosphere for climbing up to top of sunspire temple.

[IDrocAI]

i remember when unreal first cmae in 1998 , that was my first game on my computer and my first fps,3 months later half-life came,bought games were to good for their time so i am not sure which is my favorite of these two,maybe ureal

[volvomantom]

From 7:17 onwards...absolutely epic.

[sravibasker]

along with Bluff Eversmoking, this is my favorite theme on the soundtrack.

remember how many times I completed this game all those years ago. kids these days dont know what they missed.

[Gunner193]

We gotta show'em what's true gaming. We didn't do it before and now there are Halo fanfags swarming the internet with "Master Chief 0wnxorz" and other bullshits.

[DemonicFireFly117]

Hey, Halo 3 is a good game, but I see where you're coming from. We need more super original, quality stuff like Unreal that just blows away the competition. Something that nobody has ever seen before, something that doesn't just have awesome graphics but has a science fiction atmosphere like no other. Unreal is likely the only game to truly pull it off.

[Gunner193]

Close by is Half-Life 2.

[DemonicFireFly117]

Oh, Hell yeah! The Half Life series is actually my number one favorite. But Unreal still had better atmosphere. If it had a story as good as Half-Life's it would be GODLIKE

[Gunner193]

Heh, can do nothing but agree! HL FTW :D

[volvomantom]

I agree, man. For the record, though, I didn't think Unreal's story was all that bad. A little bit of a cliché perhaps, but still, there've been worse...

[Andraxxus195]

hey im a kid, if you ask me halo doesnt have a good story line at all and not even a good sequal. unreal is the best game i played ever! (not unreal tournament) and half life is good. i wish theyd make more games like this

[Gunner193]

Yeah, a new company should arise...

[Atrahasis7]

nice to see kids with good taste, if you liked unreal, try deus ex or system shock 2. games like unreal should be considered art.

[tjeeen]

epic

[antmanfersil]

I love the 2:00 minutes part

[antmanfersil]

My favorite song! THANK YOU!!!

[Hegelmaus81]

Unreal was epic for anyone who played it when it was new.

Unfortunately, it was overshadowed by Half Life at the time (which was truly stellar as well), so a lot of people forget about what a great game it was.

Amazing graphics, inventive weapons, HUGE, beautiful environments and consistent world, wonderful music, solid gameplay, and even a nice story.

Unreal immersed in its world like few FPS games do.

Truly a wonderful, underappreciated game.

[Nizzle016]

very true words ... for sure a top 10 game of all times

[zzzra86]

Back in 1998, having 2-mile high spires in a video game was EPIC!!!

[Gunner193]

zzzra86 said:

"Back in 1998, having 2-mile high spires in a video game was EPIC!!!"

I say:

It still is if you can navigate through its inside!

[scorpius420]

this is the part where you have to fight the giant gorilla-alien at the beginning of the valley with a few nali houses there too? Was my fave tune in the game.

[uyesu]

dunno if you'll ever see this, of course, but those giant gorilla-alien, boulder-lobbing monsters are named Titans.

[Maverickwolf2312]

yeah....i hated titans in that game

slow but deadly those bastards

[masterunreal31]

ohhhh you know what someone at Microsoft should do, put unreal on xbox live marketplace for 1200 points, epic would get money by the second

[niskytank]

The part that starts around 7:00 mark is amazing, especially if you climb to the top of the spire and than jump down, takes good 15 seconds to fall all the way.

[TotemsNotGood]

7:10 so nice.

[Hexamethylenetetrami]

Finally that's the music I was looking for:)

[DemonicFireFly117]

hey, I think I might be able to do all you fans out there a favor. I have a friend who is GREAT at piano and I think, if he practices, he can make a video of him playing an extended version of the end part of this song. Everybody who thinks it's a good idea reply so I can show him how many people he will be making happy by doing it and he will be sure to give it a good effort.

[arvutihull]

It would be interesting to see it in my opinion!

[CCFi99]

Play it again, Sam !

[Kleptomanuel]

DemonicFirefly117, please ask your friend to do it!

BryanELx made a really cool version of Hub2, and it made me hunger for more Unreal ambient songs.
