    Or wait, wasn't it "The New Hope"?

    ID has really become a very lame company. I remember thinking back in the day after playing Doom that the FPS just couldn't get any better. I guess ID agreed. They still haven't released a better game than Doom. In fact, they're desperately trying to recapture the game by releasing Doom 3.

    Aren't people getting a little sick of "gothic styled mindless FPS's" yet?

    Not to mention that's basically the extent of the game as well. Run, jump, shoot, kill, die, respawn, repeat process. I played Quake 3 for about 15 minutes before I was regretting wasting the money on it and wishing I could return it to the store. On the other hand, Half-Life was the best money I have ever spent on any game and I've played it and the modifications of it for almost 2 years now. Quake 3 is eye candy and the models look like cheap cartoon character tough guys. Screw that. Give me Counter-Strike ANY day over the lame ass deathmatch Quake 3.
