That thing is official?! This is awesome! I'm so gonna sign up right away.
Loved watching the introduction videos.

EDIT: Alright. That was sweet. I will surely play this ALOT once I get on the desktop PC. (Sucks playing with the touchpad! I scored like 15-10* at the training battle with Crash!)

Add me, whoever wishes to: Renveii

well you should have javascript enabled and it won't run on linux since it uses your gpu and win libraries

I was never a big Quake III Arena fan I must admit - but that may have been the fault of my friend who was a die-hard player who was in the top 20 of best Belgian players

. It's not possible to learn a game properly if you get shot before you can even spot him. My friend mentally timed the respawn time of all goodies so I never got to pick up anything or he'd be right there waiting for me to pick it up and then blast me.

Personally, I preferred Unreal Tournament - it just felt better to me. The fact that you could easily make your own maps with the added editor was a big bonus

. But really, the moment Counter Strike appeared I dropped both and just went with that.

Now, if they had made a browser-based CS, THAT would have gotten my attention. Especially if they added some of the old maps.

that's actually the best way to learn q3 properly

if i played with newbs instead of actual tourney professionals i think i would never become player as good as i am right now. you have to train timing in order to get the goodies, and it forced you to aim hard once you meet the opponent. i always played only against nightmare bots (which aren't that hard anyways) and my friends who were kind of pros and addicted
