Quake Live

Free sign up to beta test it:

This is id's game that is basically Quake 3 for free and in your web browser. I believe you still need to download and install the game, though (ie. the engine won't run off of php, java, etc). It was formally named Quake Zero.

First Quake Live tournament:

http://www.quakeunity.com/file=2753

You'll note that it looks a lot like Q3, but with better texture alignment.


And I'd do both the coked out chicks at the end in the pooper (HA! Punny!).............at the same time.


I gots mad skills :wink:

I got into the beta
Its pretty slick
Nature is bountiful where idiots are concerned

No, they arent breasts, they're personalities, because its ok to like a girl for her personalities

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man

You b@st@rd. I signed up under all of my email accounts and still didn't get in.


The only downside I see to Live is that it won't have mod support. But, hey, free is free.
