Hai

So is anyone playing this? I've not long heard about it and can't stop playing it really it's one of those games; "oh 1 more round can't hurt.." hehe. I'm just wondering if any folk on here play it? It's quite an old game but it's been updated and spruced up and now all you need to do is register, dload a plugin for your browser and your good to go. Play your account from any computer that'll let you download the browser plugin. It's also now got a match making system, though it's still in it's beta stages.
If you play it, add me as a freind, names "evu" and you can come show me how to pewpew

If you don't go try it, it's absolutely free so you have nothing to loose! (cept your dignity by being decimated for your first 10 or so games by all the old timers hehe).
Quake LiveHope to have a few frags with someone!

uhh, yea, thats me!

I played quake back in '86 or so. We had 8 players in a computer lab all playing together. In '86 this was a big deal and so much fun! I'm not sure if that is arena or not?
It won't let me register as it says my browser (fireflop) is incompatible. Using 3.4 so shouldn't be an issue. When I have more time I'll give it a better go.
THEN you had better put on your asbestos undies youngun!

Just had a butchers, looks like quake3. Was a decent deathmatch game, but I was always more of a fan of unreal tournament. But for free you can't knock the price.

If no one minds me butting this is also a excellent free open source software, very fast and similar to Unreal Tournament.

Had a quick go on some CTF, seems just like quake 3, which I never really liked before. I was a bigger fan of quake 2 back when it came out, prefer the style of it. Bit of a CS fan still too.
I was hoping it would be like the first or second quake to be honest.
