Yeah, had a lot of fun with Quake 1.
I was a bit dissapointed when q2 was this totally different story, though it really grew on me, great, challenging shooter that was.

Q3...wasnt even a game.
I've yet to play #4 which is a sequel to 2 as I understand it.

Can't wait for XBox Live Arcade to get Wolf 3D and Quake Arena Arcade.

Quake 3 was the best of the pack , i think, meant specifically for online though. Quake 4 is a bad doom 3 clone.

For online I can see how it would be...but for me, I'll say it again, if a game can't hold it's own without being played online, there's a serious lack of effort there. There IS a single player mode I know, but it just plays like a watered down online match anyways. That said, I think for games of this sort the UT series (or even just the first one vs Q3) did it better.

That's a bit of a bitch to hear...I didn't even like Doom 3.
Ah well...I suppose it's cheap enough now to check out.

So I started on two games.
GTA: Liberty City Stories which I'm sharing with the girl.
and King Kong.

Liberty City is just run of the mill, even though it's a port of a PSP game it comes off as WAY more polished than GTA3 ever looked...kind of works like a side story/different character & missions to GTA3, the place looks the same.
It's fun...though I don't really like the selection of music on this one, as I can recall the next spin-off to come out was much better.

King Kong.
I'll start off by saying I didn't think all that much of the movie...it slightly exceeded my expectations but really just not my thing. I'll also say that I've thus far played as both the human and Gorilla - I HATE playing as the gorilla...while the swinging off trees is kind've cool, the climbing is tedious and the combat is pathetic.
The human mission though, quite the opposite.
It's not really an FPS though that's how it presents itself.
Once you get the hang of the buttons, and the feel of the game which at first just seemed weird, it's actually very good...love spearing things, ha...the limited ammo is great as it gives you a real "survival" type vibe, the atmosphere is
really well done and always keeps me on the edge of my seat. It's actually a pretty innovative game (in this part) with few faults.
My only real problem with it, is that it's a bit difficult/easy to die...I've died a lot.
But I'll be playing this one to conclusion if I can.

I'd really love to see this game on a high end pc - you can tell that it's just a BIT too powerful for the Playstation 2 to do as well as it could at the time of its release.

Vice City Stories is a real good one, check that out if you get the chance.

Oh yeah, I've got it and have played through it before...agreed it's definately the better of the two - I loaned it to my brother for aaaages, then got both of 'em back, lent VCS to a friend while I played some other stuff.
