On the other hand, Q1 vs Q2 arguments provide extremely funny entertainment. Just look at post #230. I swear, I burst out laughing when I read that one =)

Q1 and Q2 are constantly compared because Q2 was nowhere like Q1.
It shouldnt really have been called Q2 in the first place, but i guess that the financial advantages were too great to resist. You can\'t really compare Doom and Doom2 like that, because there arent that many differences. Some minor technical improvements, and some more content in the same vein as the orignal. However Q2 was the exact opposite of Q1 in just about every respect. Some people actually like both equally, which i find umm, weird =), but most dont, and they\'ll always try to justify their choice, either by coherently explaining their reasons, or by calling eachother gay (as seen below).

all you people quake, quake 2 and quake 3 are all over rated, they all sucked,

214 - \"#211 Your dead mom must be proud of you, F\'n 40 years old and
on a message board taking about games.\"

Yeah that\'s me doofus, you gotta problem wit dat??

\"We have a winner!!\"

Little did you know....Heh!

\"I have you pegged... 40 years old sitting in you late mom\'s
basemen, naked, playing Q2 with a joystick. That IS you!!\"

Bzzzzt... Wrong, guess again.

\"Q2 was a mistake, and id knows that. Why do you think they are
bringing back Q1 style play in Q3? id should be ashamed of Q2,
especially when you put it next to id\'s other masterpieces.\"

Hmm.... it seems to me that id Software made plenty of money with Q2. So there you go being wrong again. How does it feel to be so fucking stupid?

\"Loser!\"

Yes, you are!

#214 - \"But some of you people I can actually visualize getting red in the face typing responses. Better yet are those posts that get so frustrated they curse and inevitably finish thier posts with \"I\'ll rail you a new a-hole. I\'d own you\". Heh, that\'s too funny.\"

Hmm...Frustrated, uhh...no, I don\'t think so. Actually, I would characterize it as talking smack. I\'m just going to assume that it\'s allowed on sCary\'s comment system, no?

Anyone know how to get Quake1 running on NT? Please point me URL please :)

#205 - Enough already with this lameass Q1 rulez, everything else drewlz, BULLSHIT!!!

I\'m 40 fucking years old and you sound like my great-great-great-muthafuckin-grandfather. \"You young whippersnapper, when I was a kid...\" DOH!! Either you keep moving or you get your dumb ass run over. Q1 is history, get over it already. If you wanna keep playing that old shit, STFU and play it. Stop pestering people with your ignorant ramblings about the good old days. I\'ve probably seen more good old days than you and I\'ll still make you my Railgun Cornholed BITCH!!

Eh? It seems that a lot of the best q3 players are q1 players. But there are guys who went from q1 to q2 to q3...those guys I respect the most because they can adapt to any game and master it :P. Kinda like Thresh (haha now I see people saying Thresh sucks).

Hey Steve. This sucks. Can\'t you at least make-up some news,
ala The Register?
;)

oh, and 1on1 dm4 is what the fps experience was meant to be like.

I lived Q1/QW for 2 years then tried Q2. Yes, strait-up Quake2 deathmatch wasn\'t as great as Q1\'s, but the mod\'s beat the pants off the original\'s. LMCTF, RA2, HH, JB, Q-Pong -- all fun and don\'t have as good of (if any) competitor in Q1.

Q1 laid the groundwork which we all should appreciate, but Q2 gave the mod communtity opportunity to shine.

I look forward to seeing all my favorite mods carried over to the new engine. Hell I\'m counting on LMCTF to be the definative grapple-enabled CTF.


Bring it on.
