Angarak Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 I downloaded the demo and was disappointed I don't own a time machine to stop myself from downloading the demo! Over-Hyped-Crap in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Yep, Carmageddon and Quake II co-op (those were the days, pre console assrape of gaming) sold about 5 of us the orchid righteous 3dfx card Those were the days my friend, I thought they'd never end Haven't looked at a Quake game since the Quake III Arena travesty.

Orchid Righteous, that was it! I hated Q3 Arena too and the only ID software game I've played since was a brief stint on Doom3... that annoyed me for being far too dark, and you had to run around with the torch constantly.

Daston Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Ah Carmageddon was class had to by a Voodoo 3 card for Carmageddon II my mighty 486DX 8mb Ram PC wasnt up to the task without it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and you'd: 1. walk into room 2. see critter in front of you 3. turn round 4. shoot two critters that magically appeared behind you in order to "surprise" you. Again. 5. turn back around 6. shoot original critter 7. exit room 8. goto 1. What a let down that game was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 3dFX! Ahh the memories. Always fancied one of the Obsidian versions myself. Funny fact: Virgin Megastore in Brighton were still charging £249 for them when they had dropped to about £50. I told a guy who was queueing to buy one that he could save himself £200 buying walking to Electronics Boutique. He thanked me and left the box on the counter. Oddly, a few minutes later I was asked to leave by two security gaurds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out the back of Watford Electronics build room, wrapped in a copy of the Sunday Sport. Mmm, Lyndsey Dawn Mackenzie never looked better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a Voodoo2 which you could SLI if you were minted back then! I stopped playing Quake when Q3A came out, gave it ago for about 6 months but couldnt seem to play it as well as the previous ones. Plus they ruined the railgun which was my weapon of choice in Q2 - I will never forgive ID for that screw up LOL Ian, my brother and I held a lan party in their offices in Watford many moons ago, probably back in 1998?

Pot Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I haven't really been into Quake much in the past, but I've bought this today, and I really like it - I haven't gone online yet to get pwned and called a n00b by some 12 year old in the states, but I will in a bit... It reminds me a bit of SOCOM 2 on the PS2, but more arcadey (*sp) - More action orientated but still with a bit of strategy, but you still get rewarded for thinking sod them (The rest of your team), and going for it on your own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
