Aside from the sh!tty name, it looks to have a lot of potential:

Battlefields are perfectly rendered using MegaTexture, a totally new rendering technology developed by id Software that crunches millions of polygons and a gigabyte-scale texture into a single, seamless and un-tiled landscape with unique detail down to the square inch or the un-obscured distant horizon.
I think that's the most important part of the article. To me, that says that the Doom 3 engine has been upgraded the same way the Quake 3 engine was with the Team Arena source code. Now the engine wars get
really interesting.

I thought this was going to be about some kind of ET mod....
Interesting tech news though, this should make the D3 engine much more versatile.

Though, either this guy remember a different Quake than me or he forgot to type the second "I."
The QUAKE art style is actually quite diverse. We think we've found a happy middle ground, where the game looks new and cool, but the GDF classes still look pretty similar to that Ranger guy you play in QUAKE I.
I see guys who look similar to the Quake II guy, not the Quake I guy. Unless my eyes are bad enough that I just don't see the guys in metal medieval-like chest armour, metal helmets, and hockey pads all swinging axes.
Mebbe it's just me.
