Hi,
I have to buy a first person shooter in the next couple of days for my
nephew's birthday.
I had Quake 3 arena a while back, it was great.

I just wanted to ask - is Quake 4 worth buying?
Also, if not quake 4, does anyone have any opinion about the best first
person shooter you can buy nowadays?

Thanks if you can help
Mothed
