(NOTE: This is a review of the modification "Quake 3 Fortress", but because there isn't a specific category for this (yet!) I've put it in the Quake 3 Arena section for now) No apologies... this is a big review, 'cos it's a game I *really* love. If you don't want to sit through the game's history, skip down to the row of asterisks, which is where the main part of the review begins... I've been a game player for a long time - starting on an Atari 2600 console at the start of the 80s, and working my way through a ZX Spectrum, Atari ST, Gameboy, CDi, Playstation, Neo Geo Pocket, and more combinations of PC hardware ...  Read the complete review

One more time, one more match, 30 more frags - just one more victory and I?ll be ready to call it a night. Yeah, right. I've been here before... many times...long ago. A hell of a lot of you will know what to do when you play Quake III Arena for the first time. You'll know how the controls work, how to operate each weapon, when to run for health, and when to rush into a crowd of competitors with guns blazing. Some of you will even be highly skilled players in your very first Quake III Arena Deathmatch. This is because very little has changed in terms of gameplay here. This is Quake. Rocket launchers, machine guns, rail guns, lightning guns, and shotguns ...  Read the complete review

Having created such hype in the gaming market is it worth it the simple answer is GET UNREAL TORUNAMENT INSTEAD. With Positively excellant cartoon graphics the gameplay the sound and the amount of stuff you can get as add on is good. I I have had this game a fair while now and since Quake 3 was spawned by Unreal Tournament not the other way around it is still not a bad game. The game has some cool guns and improvements on the others, texture detail is good but only hits that sweet spot if you like the toon like graphics. Gameplay wise I feel that it lacks something and this is particularly shown when you compare it to the first and second installments. ...  Read the complete review

This is a damn good game. On the internet its comes into its own, on your own its is suberb offering 5 or 6 levels of difficulty and 30 or so levels to complete. But as a networked game it is simply the best game ever it cannot be beaten, not by anything not even chucky egg or daley thompson's super test!!! So There. Its sound and graphics systems are amazing and just about any half descent card will play the game well. It has virtually no glitches or bugs, which can be very annoying when played over the net. I would recommentd this to anyone who likes a very fast and furious shoot em up and loves the sight of amazing graphics. Goldeneye is better but only just cos .  Read the complete review
