"Back in the 90s, before Master Chief suited up, and before Call of Duty hooked us in, there was Quake 3 Arena. A multiplayer focused First Person Shooter, it was the paragon of twitch gaming, and a staple in many a PC (and later, Dreamcast) gamers’ collection. Fast forward to the present day, and ‘Quake Arena Arcade’, essentially a Quake 3 Arena port, is now available to download via Xbox LIVE – but can it hold its own in an online environment that is vastly different from that of over a decade ago?"
XMNR: DLC content for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Fallout: New Vegas are on sale on Xbox LIVE along with Doom II and Quake Arcade Arena.
Just buy GOTY edition for Fallout 3 and TES4.
The horse armor isn't worth it.
I would just wait for Fallout NV, goty( I don't know if NV got and goty award) or w/e edition come out.
That's usually the smart thing to do. Wait for a GOTY edition with all DLC to come out, then buy the pack.
The problem some people have however, is the waiting game.
lol That pic, I remember when that horse armor DLC came out in 2006 good times lol horse armor FTW! = )
What other Fallout:NV packs are worth it besides Old World Blues?
I didn't see any other DLC packs get that much praise.
Excerpt from article...
"Playing and reviewing remade games is a precious process. On a base level, the way we view this game should be no different than how we view Quake 3 Arena. However, the goal of a reviewer is to determine if it is valuable for consumers to purchase the game."
I was shocked to see this on xbox live tbh, it very nonchalantly came out of nowhere with no fanfair whatsoever, like the review said though, why bother when a superior and free version is already available on the pc, sad really for such a classic.
Never was a fan of these games. Even back when they were new, they never provided me with much fun, and they feel especially dated now that we have such superior alternatives.
man, i remember quake being a blockbuster game that would stop people in their tracks. Now it gets barely any notice today
PlayDevil has posted a review of the recently released "Quake Arena Arcade" for Xbox Live Arcade.
Here's more:
"Quake Live on PC only requires a browser, and is free to play, so why would I want to pay 1200 points to play on my Xbox 360?"
Game is made for PC and will always be best on PC.
I've played this game from the beginning when it was beta and still play it with various mods etc.
I also played it on the dreamcast and you could even play dc vs pc.
But dc users did not stand a chance against mouse/key.
Quake3 in my eyes will be remembered as one of the best online games ever made.
Not a big fan of the whole arcade shooting scene, especially for the consoles. I mean, quasi-arcade shooters like Timesplitters are sublime, but going full-out isn't my thing.
