Quake 3 Still King

Quake 3 was definatly one of the greatest FPS on the PC, the PS2 version is no exception. Despite long load times and a slight lack of variety, the game plays like a dream. The graphics are better than any I've seen on the PS2 so far, and the action never skips a beat. I've read the game even runs slightly over 60 frams per second and never below. Buy this one as soon as you see it!

Why I Can't Stop Pausing The Game & Learned To Love The Bomb

Well, First off, i can't say it enough, ID has made quality games for the last 10 years, perhaps not in the single player facet (i.e. QuakeII), but in multiplayer, they would be king. King not only in gameplay, but in visuals, sound, concept, and, of course, fun factor.

The orginal Q3A has won several awards, one of which for its revolutioniary 3D-engine, and rightfully so.

I have had a tremendous time playing Q3A on my Dreamcast. It was a great buy, but, w/ Q3A: Revolution making it's way to the store shelves @ the end of March, i can look forward to some great additions to analready outstanding game. I will be buying into an extended roster of (30+) characters to choose from, each w/ @ least 3 outfits (deathmatch, CTF: Red & Blue), an expanded single player game (35+ levels of competition), and and expanded multiplayer arena as well (15+ deathmatch, 15+ CTF & CO-OP).

It took a short while to get a handle on the control scheme of games like Unreal Tournament & Timesplitters, but like in those games, once you get used to it, it's a piece of cake.

I'm a Quake fanatic, & i'm not going to rest until i've become the best. **Look For DOOM 3, Coming SOON!**

I do agree this game is very fun. But I hate the controlls. trying to straf becomes a art of finger flixablity. The level of difficulty is very nice and the multiplayer modes kick [behind]!!!

THis game is probably the second best shooter on Ps2 the fisrt duh Red Faction.

Playstation butchers another one!

Ok lets be honest, Playstation has already bought out Dreamcast in their babyish attempt to get rid of competition. You're going to see Sonic the Hedgehog on PS2 soon. But one thing that itches me is that they butchered Quake 3. Its a mere shadow of its former self now that PS2 got its grubby and greedy little hands on it. The graphics are one thing thats merely good. Dreamcast version was BETTER, because it had more availabilities. Now that the moneyhogs at Sony got their wish of getting rid of competition (the Dreamcast whooped it big time), you will begin to see Sega-based titles appear on the PS2. Maybe we'll see Mario on the Playstation 2 in a few years. Who knows.

OK but a lttle off

This game is fun to play when you have some friends over. However it takes five to ten minutes to load and it loads after every screen. The gameplay is fun but there aren't alot of weapons and you run out of ammo pretty quick. The characters look pretty 2D. If your looking for a shootem up game go with Unreal.

Buy this game for your PC

I've spent hours playing Quake 3 on my PC. These hours add up to days, months even. I play online. I play in tournaments online. I can't get enough. The PS2 version is a mere shadow of the PC version. Graphics are muddy (even with an S-Video connection), control is awful. I could write paragraphs expounding on the awfulness of the control. This game is designed for use with a keyboard and mouse. Some first person shooters can pull off the use of a controller (Southpark for N64 works wonderfully). If you've never played Quake 3 and you like first person shooters, buy it for PC (it almosts warrants buying the PC). Anyone who likes this game even a little for PC should not consider renting this game - in fact, avoid even looking in its general direction,

I admit to playing only multiplayer (with two others). I did not try the story mode. I did not want to.

Run away from this version. Better yet, destroy it as soon as you see it.

Quake III Revolution for PS2

This game is excellent if u like games like doom and timesplitters. I find this game slightly better than timesplitters, but it is very slow. The controls are very easy, but aiming up and down can be a pain if you are in that kind of situation. I guess i gave it four stars because it is the best game of its kind by far,for its slow speed i took one off. I can probably finish 2 eggs and orange juice while it is loading the level. I love the gameplay because they actually went a little past a few drops of blood spilling out, unlike most games. Don't buy this game unless you have friends to play multiplayer with, because it can get boring playing the same thing over and over just to beat the vadrigar. THAT'S ALL !!happy gaming!!

This game is the worst in its genre. After the 2nd quake, which was also bad, came something even worse quake 3 arena. After playing the pc, then renting the game for ps2 i realized that both were bad. Terrible controls, you can't win on normal diffuculty since the guys kill you easily, and the arenas are small and are terrible-looking graphics. Don't buy this game, it is a waste of time and money!
