A New 'Quake' Episode Appears 20 Years Later (vice.com)

An anonymous reader quotes this report from Motherboard: The months leading up to this year's phenomenal reboot of Doom were stuffed with all kinds of fun developments surrounding the original series, whether it was mods that let you play as Duke Nukem or whole new levels from famed designer John Romero. There's now a new Quake game in the works, and already it appears to be enjoying a similar renaissance. Yesterday MachineGames, the studio behind Wolfenstein: The New Order, released an entirely new episode for the original Quake in celebration of its 20-year anniversary, and you can play it entirely for free.

New maps and episodes are released often

While I praise their effort and the episode is fun to play and polished, this isn't news, because new maps and episodes are released every year. Check Quaddicted for examples. Quake is still very much alive.

Depending on the angle and where the zombie was in the animation, it could look a little like they are tossing their asses... closest I could find: http://quake.wikia.com/wiki/Zo...

I have never seen a zombie throw its ass

The animation sequence for the Quake zombies shows them grabbing their ass and tossing something at the player. It could be ass, might be shit. An inside joke from the gamer developers.
