 Quake Wars review
Yea, so there's a review up at gamespot.
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/enemy ... ws;title;1
It's an 8.5, which is pretty good. I personally like that kind of game play so I may pick this up when I get bored of my current 3 games I'm playing. :p That may be awhile, of course.

I play the demo, and i like it.
Although i dont like it that you can shoot tanks with normal assault rifles.
The bad thing is, if i, for example, like to be strogg medic or GDF engineer then at some point i need to change class because, atleast on the demo map, some of the objectives can be completed by classes which very few people like to play.
And the airstrike spamming can sometimes be frustrating.

Having played now the full version, i have to say, the maps suck. Only the demo map is good, most of the others are kinda crap. Too much space, too much running around and people tend to do whatever instead of going for the objective.
I'm quite sure this game will die quicker than BF2142.
And the game has some serious issues with latency. Ping jumpss up and down sometimes even ranging from +-30, very bad for gaming.
Atleast i can play Mask of The Betrayer soon.

gah, another broken game.  I swear, these people are just cranking out battlefield clones as fast as possible for cash. I guess them dying within 6 months is a good thing in the publisher's eyes. If people play the game religiously for 2 years that means they won't be buying a new version.

No, I haven't played it at all. I'm still busy with EVE, Medieval 2 and World in Conflict. I don't think I will...by the time I finish World in Conflict and Medieval 2 Crysis will probably be out.

hah...hey Frater....it's been quite awhile. Nice to see you again. I'm afraid I won't be buying the game, though. Sorry, it just doesn't sound very compelling. I'll frag you in Crysis when the time comes, though.

Heh... Frag. What a word. It reminds me of my first days of studying German language. Verb "fragen" (to ask) was irresistibly reminding me of fragging in Q3.  I was rolling on the floor after each class.
(mumbles apology for spoiling a holy moment)

lol...no problem. I wouldn't be surprised if German fragen gets a different meaning in the near future.

Well I might wait for a while before I buy that game, I just ordered the Orange box from valve. Lets see how TFC2 turns out, ok, nothing will beat WFA, but then again, who knows?
Crysis sounds nice, another way to waste my precious time...

yea, TF2 sounded like a very possible WFA replacement...up until I saw the graphics. That just turned me right off. Anyway, let us know how it is.

So far I haven´t touched TFC2 yet, for the movement, I`m SATISfied with watching the nice butt of Alyx... Hehe!
Seriously, I will finish Episod 2 before I start indulging myself in things like TFC etc, after all, WFA managed to grabb ca 18 hours every week from my surfing!

hah, no problem. You playing episode 2? That's about the only game in that box that I'm tempted by. I'm guessing it's pretty good.
