You numpty. Quake was/is/will always be rubbish." I'll railgun you for that comment :P "kasai: Correct. “Luck” in Q3 is rare, and therefore awesome when it happens. I really love it." Yeah I remember I rocket jumped into the air flew half way across the map and just before I landed took out 2 players made me smile all night after I did that. “Doom 2, John. You numpty. Quake was/is/will always be rubbish.”

I played this game online for close to 4 years. This game to me was perfectly balanced no one had special ability you were all the same all the weapons were all the same. What made you good was your own skill, knowing the maps, being able to read the movements of other players and your reaction time. This game is a sport but its also fun you don't need to be a pro to enjoy it. In essence this game is easy to pick up but hard to truly master. I couldn’t agree more with John on this.

I loved Quake II, but I've gone back to Q3A so many times. It really is timeless. He's right: there's no bullshit in it at all. You just shoot stuff. Quake III was best.
