http://www.xleague.tv Tournament wise, which of these Quake games will you likely to play? Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Quake 4 Quake II Quake III Arena Quake III: Team Arena Quake: Team Fortress Ultimate Quake We know that Quake hasn't been around lately, but considering its still a classic, and some people still play Quake to some extent, we would like to know as soon as. Quake 4 seems to be the more popular version since its up-to-date and retains the gameplay from Quake 3, but as far as I know, most players prefer Quake 3. Quake Wars isn't out yet, but I would like your take on it as its going to be a Battlefield style game, so it might be a great game and something different. If you're from a clan or an avid Quake player, then let me know. Would love your feedback on this subject. Thanks!

It's based on the Quake III source code, and it's FREE. -- Regards, Peter Reaper The browser you can trust: www.GetFirefox.com Reclaim Your Inbox: www.GetThunderbird.com

Would > love your feedback on this subject. Thanks! At the moment, we are testing Quake 4. Its seems to retain the same concept as Quake 3 but the damage is much less. For example, the rockets take at least 3-4 direct hits before they die. Still trying to sort out the graphics for it. It seems the ATI cards are crap for Quake, while the GeForce cards are much better... Hopefully we will have GeForce 8800 SLIs. Then we'll run a benchmark to see how it performs. Oh and one other thing, do you avid gamers use USB cabled keyboard and mouse or wireless ones?

I use Logitech diNovo wireless desktop but with its mouse off and stored. I use USB Wheelmouse Opticals. They work fine with my hands. McG.
