Pros
Pro Pure fast action
Unreal is known as a "twitch shooter". The reason for this is because of how fast the gameplay is, requiring the player to have quick responses to what is going on in the game due to how speedy the whole thing is.
Pro Low system requirements
As it's an older game, any modern computer will be able to play it very well. For best results, it's suggested that a 1.4GHz processor is used and 512MB of RAM is available in the system. These are extremely low requirements for even a 6 year old laptop.
Pro Simple graphics and smooth gameplay
The graphics are very simplistic. If for you the only thing that matters is how fluid the game is(so you want 60+ FPS), this is the game to play.
Pro Multiplayer
Multiplayer is still possible in 2021, with a patched exe.
Pro Competing racers have personalities
Each driver has their own driving style and uses the same car each race. It creates storylines and allows noticing a player at a distance. This is especially useful in tournament races, since it's possible to get an overall better standing not just by driving better, but by eliminating the competition as well.
Cons
Con Graphics look dated
When it was released in 1999, the graphics were top notch, but now they appear rather dated.
Con Online component has since been abandoned
As there's is practically no-one playing the game since it's release in 2006, the online counterpart of the game might as well be obsolete.
