It was fast-paced, balls to the wall, over the top, and had plenty of bloody carnage to boot. Quake III Arena was the reason to play online games as well as proving your dominance in the virtual world. Now Quake III Arena is coming to Xbox Live Arcade with a new name (Quake Arena Arcade) and some new changes to make the gameplay better than ever before.
Quake Arena Arcade is still the same game that was released 10 years ago on the PC, Sega Dreamcast, and Playstation 2. Recently PC users have been able to relive the game with Quake Live. The upcoming Quake Arena Arcade on Xbox Live Arcade will come with some changes and new elements which will make Quake Live obsolete. So what's changed and what's new? Keep reading to find out..."
The Quake Franchise has become a name in the gaming industry that demands respect for its accomplishments. However, it's reign of nearly two decades is at an end. The Quake series and iD software cannot compete with today's gaming industry. The lack of playerbase, lack of customer support and player/developer interactions makes the once great game lack the necessary traffic to keep it relevant.

However, it appears that some people wish for a next generation version of iD’s best multiplayer game. Well, we got some bad news as there won’t going to be one anytime soon. When a fan asked for a new Quake 3 game, John Carmack said that it would not happen."
lol you serious? a shooter is a shooter is a shooter! no matter how much a washed up coder thinks its the early 90's
Play counter strike 1.6. You will rage quit then go back to your bullet sponge gaming sessions on ps3 or xbox & enjoy Death Streak Rewards.
since when did battlefield 3 have any streak reward i have a ps3 a 360 and a pretty good pc pending a gtx 680 once one is made available at my local shop cs 1.6 has outdated visuals maybe and may have been fun one day long ago but right now there is so much good stuff right now whats the point
It doesn't matter about visuals. Quake 3 looks terrible now but is one of the best FPS of all time. Console fanboys would not be able to cope with the speed of the old PC Fps's not even mentioning strafe jumping.
the sad thing here is that these statements basically mean that we won't get a new Quake Arena game :/
Question is whether a new Quake game is even necessary.
Aside from visuals, there's not a whole lot that can be changed without 'fan' backlash, so the best thing they can do is keep supporting the classic games, which is what QuakeLive attempts to do.
they should though, make it pc exclusive and able to run on even low end hardware and they will have a huge hit. Quake arena with some updated graphics and flashy new maps would beat the hell out of anything multi platform.
Its sad how far things have gone backwards thanks to the success of halo, call of duty and some of its clones.
Personally, I'd love to see a next-generation version of Quake 3. Same mechanics, upgraded graphics. This is how a next generation Quake 3 would look like ( http://n4g.com/news/871834/... ). But this is not going to happen. Still, it would be really cool
let's hope Epic games pc exclusive is UT4 on UE4. I won't sell like cod on consoles anyway.
This dude seems to only have 360 on his mind. Make it for PS3 and PC cross platform play. It's not like PS3 doesn't have mouse and keybored support. Promblem solved. Oh wait I forgot he's a crappy PS3 dev. If it doesn't easly translate between 360 and PC then he doesn't want anything to do with it.
Making a game for PS3 becuz it supports keyboard and mouse is a stupid reason.
If you make it for PS3 then you'll get the 360 people angry and then the whole mess will get worse.
I clearly said make it for PS3 and PC. I'm not sure if 360 has keyboard support. If it doesn't then there should be no reason from them to complain if its something their console doesnt support. It would be like PS3 people complaining cause COD doesnt have party chat cause there is no cross game chat for PS3 which be equally as stupid.
all i want to know is...Where`s my Doom 4?, so i can take it & go back into my underground bunker & play it & never be seen again til Doom5.
Lol I'll be fragging your ass! >:D
Doom4 will come around and I'll make you run out of your bunker enraged >:D
Lol I might be tired as I type this
XMNR: DLC content for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Fallout: New Vegas are on sale on Xbox LIVE along with Doom II and Quake Arcade Arena.
Just buy GOTY edition for Fallout 3 and TES4.
The horse armor isn't worth it.
I would just wait for Fallout NV, goty( I don't know if NV got and goty award) or w/e edition come out.
That's usually the smart thing to do. Wait for a GOTY edition with all DLC to come out, then buy the pack.
The problem some people have however, is the waiting game.
lol That pic, I remember when that horse armor DLC came out in 2006 good times lol horse armor FTW! = )
What other Fallout:NV packs are worth it besides Old World Blues?
I didn't see any other DLC packs get that much praise.
