true. But in hindsight, both were awesome with different aspects. Half-Life had a much more long-lasting experience through its modding capabilities - and an outstanding story. Unreal was visually and technically beautiful and had a mind-blowing athmosphere - but of course a single player game isn't as longlasting as Half-Life was. (I know it had multiplayer, but at least in my perspective this was not Unreal's focus - which changed dramatically with Unreal Tournament)
