I did not know there was so much unreal stuff, but i guess those mugs and other stuff are pretty rare to find.
I did found some shops in the netherlands where they sold brand new boxed copies of unreal gold and replay unreal, and i found the poster in one of the shops in the bargain bin yeah!!
If anyone ever finds more unreal stuff please post becouse i really want to have everything that is possible to get.

That is interesting, you have the poster, can you measure the format? The official poster is 68,6 cm x 99,1 cm. Is that what you have? And what is the condition of the poster? And is it rolled up or is it folded? I am asking because that would make it alot more easy to reproduce it if you have that poster. Could you also make a photo from it as high resolution as possible? And dont use flash! So you have to take it in daylight in such a way theres is no light reflection visible.
But if its in good shape than it would be worth wild to have it scanned in large format by a commercial company.
Also the copies you found in those stores, do you have the adresses somewhere. And what models have they lying, are they the boxed retail versions or just CD/DVD case models?

Well, good for you
Though you should have a look around, if you print out the logo on paper(or give it on CD), theres tons of places where you can have it printed on a T-Shirt or something. And overhere its like 10 to 20 Dollars to have that done.
I do have the logo still in High resolution somewhere, and i could upload it. But gotta find it.

The format of the poster is 68 x 99 cm indeed and its rolled up no cracks or anyting it looks like new to me it whas a good 3$ deal.
Can't make any picture of it tough i don't have any camera but i can try to go to the copy center when i have time (in some weeks) and try to get some copies of it.
Also the copies you found in those stores, do you have the adresses somewhere. And what models have they lying, are they the boxed retail versions or just CD/DVD case models?
They now only have boxed unreal gold version and the replay version on their website if you search for it
You pay like 10 for it and they are brand new.
Only thing you have the seal is broken becouse they stock their games in chelfs with boxes only and they will incert the cd in it after you buy it, im not sure if you order true website that the seal is also broken.
Maybe for the US there are still some brand new ones too if you look true some american websites of gameshops.
http://www.nedgame.nl/ is their website but its dutch tough

I am Dutch
And i looked up the store and they have several over the country, and incredible enough theres one in my city Nijmegen. And i never heard of it, nore was i aware the shop excists in my city.

Bad thing really, if you talk about collectors

No never mind that because they than try scan it in parts which will only damage the poster. What i was thinking is differently. Lets have it scanned by a proffessional company specialised in large format scans. That way you know its scanned properly and the poster wont get damaged. And i am willing to pay for the ordeal.
And it can be done either way. Or you try find a company close to you that has proffessional large scanning equipment and have it done there. Or you sent the poster (signed for) to me and i have it scanned overhere and sent it back to you, again signed for.
In the last case i will provide you a good tube that is strong enough to withstand any damage done to it. I still have tubes lying here from the time i was still in the graphical business, and they might not look nice but they atually can have a truck run over by them and they wont bend.
Providing we use that tube than my only worry would be, it getting lost in the mail. But if its signed for (back and forth)than that chance would be minimal. And the Dutch mail is very, very reliable, i just dont know about the Belgium mail.
As said i pay for everything. Of course i guess the best way and safest way is if you find a proffessional company and have scanned there. That way we are sure the poster never gets lost or damaged. But either way is fine with me.
After that i can check the file and remove dust and small scratches on microlevel and make it available for anyone. On my end i will have it printed proffessionally, and for the efford ill sent you a copy back so you got one to hang on the wall. And ill have that done by the same company where i had the posters made for Smirftsch a while back. And i am sure Smirftsch will agree with me that those posters are from unmatched quality in paper and print. Virtually they are undestructable and guarantueed to last 250 years.
Let me know what you think of it? And i want to emphesise either way is fine with me. And only make a choiche where YOU are comfortable with!!!
And theres no hurry so take your time.

Why not get yourself a copy from Unreal or UnrealGold through Ebay? That way you can play RTNP. Unreal/Gold you could get for like 1 Euro excluding shipment.

I have a strange problem trying to buy a book from unreal i still need for my collection.
When i try to buy the book from amazon i get a line saying.
This item cannot be shipped to your country??
I tried each sale and only the most expensive like 114$ wich is crazy and i don't want, doesn't give that error.
Can anyone tell me why i get that error, and also is it possible to pay true paypal on amazon?

When i ordered from Amazon i had it shipped to a friend in the US. From there everything was collected and sent to The Netherlands.
And i never checked but it could very well be possible that if you use amazon.com they only ship to the US. In any respect such a thing is retarded, cause its only a different adress and a tad more in shipping, which i asume you are willing to pay.
I guess you could do 2 things, either find someone here that lives in the US and have it sent to him, and than to you. In that case you need to change the shipment adress in your amazon options before you order it!!
Or simply contact the seller explaining you want it sent to Belgium and that you are willing to pay additional in shipping if thats needed.
And the payment, i tried to find it back(and thought it was PayPal), but it seems i payed through my MasterCard. And this is a Mastercard i got through my bank. So if you dont have a Mastercard you still can get one through your own bank and it will be connected to your normal bankaccount.
As for the books, there are basically 4 books. The 2 novels, and the 2 strategy guides. If you buy the Unreal: Official Strategy Guide by Graig Wessel, make real sure the music CD is in the poutch cause not all still have them! If you are unsure ask the seller if its still there, if not look for another copy.
And no, you should not go pay 100+ for a book. And if needed, all the 4 boosk do also show up on ebay from time to time. So if Amazon fails, try Ebay from time to time. A fair price for any of those books would be 5 to 15 dollars and 20 tops. Anything above that is nonsense really as they are still widelly available.

Oh yeah, i forgot to mention that, but the system simply looks where your IP is located. Which is why you get that warning.
Not that its helpfull to know, but than you know how. But its anoying and if you sell stuff on the net which is visible for the entire world, its kinda idiotic you cannot order international.
Well, you could press charches agains Amazon for rasisme.........

Same here, not to mention no-one in Europe uses Mastercards because everything goes through you bankpass and bankaccount.
But that is why i mentioned getting the card through your bank. You can ask you current bank for a (Semi)Mastercard. Than you pay a one time fee like 15 Euro and you get the card from your bank and they connect it to Mastercard.
The card will look like a normal bankpass, except it has a creditcard numnber and a small Mastercard icon. And you only pay small fee when you apply for it. And if you buy international, its never bad to have a creditcard. You should check your bank's site what they offer. So its a one-time small fee and no montly fees like an actual card. Apart from that it works like a full creditcard.

(Too lazy to insert image or whatever.)
Even though it could be fake, I was just curious to see if anyone would have this?

Yes that one is known, and on BeuyondUnreal theres also the article inside:
NextGen article scans
Though oddly enough i miss the fron in that thread. But maybe it was posted here as well.
Edit theres more here:

And here:
http://www.oldunreal.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/ ... 1280253481
But that cover should also be somewhere. And i am gonna get those magazines as well. And they surface relative regular, but mostly they also are relative expensive too.

Ah, I remember seeing those scans a while ago now. I just didn't correlate the cover with the scans because I completely forgot about the scans.
Anyway, best of luck to you in your collecting. I wish I could get some of the stuff there is out there.

Cool it seems that unreal also exists on nintendo 64?
Atleast thats what the cover of that magazine says.
Anyone got some info on that becouse i never heared of that before?
Would be nice if it exists to add it to collection.

It WAS going to be on Nintendo 64 but complications prevented its completion, similar to the PSX port that never was. Little information exists on either, except that maps of the PSX one were released. The N64 one I believe never got much work and thus got nothing for it. Just from what I gather is that it was complications in putting the Unreal Engine into N64, would have included cutting down on graphics and complexity of each level, possibly completely different levels with some things dumbed down, similar to PSX. Added, the N64 handles geometry differently from Unreal as I recall to save space.
