Argh, I wish they'd stop remaking Quake 3 (because that is essentially what Champions is, even if it is new levels and engine) and remake Quake 1; tighten up the story and gameplay and slap on a new can of paint, sort of like they did with Doom. I mean, I get that there are a lot of people who love Quake 3-style multiplayer, but it's been done and done again over the years. Give the original some lovin', I say! Even Quake 2 got a remake/sequel; I wanna blast me some chainsaw-wielding ogres in high-res, dammit! Is that so wrong?
