Do any of you people that think this is a bad move actually care about this remaster and have any interest in discussing it? So much time and energy spent on list wars and so little on actual gaming.
Iâm just sitting here waiting for the download button to appear so I can press it furiously.
To be fair, we all know Unreal Tournament was the better game.
Iâve played quite a lot of Unreal Tournament at LAN Parties back in the day. We never really bothered with Quake.
The only things that really matter to me regarding this apparent remaster of an old game is whether it is Day One on Xbox Game Pass as expected and that Xbox be properly prepared to answer questions regarding the multiplatform release just to help avoid too much cluster because honestly I donât really care if this remaster is elsewhere. I would question it much more if a true reboot of the IP ended up on other platforms of course, which is why being ready to answer questions is important.
this disgusting post makes me regret ever registering here
This will only create fake outrage later and sends mixed messaging. Also not sure how effective a Quake remaster of all things, will convince people to invest in the Xbox ecosystem later.
My initial reaction to this leak was âF*** yeah! Quake!â, and then it was âOh, people are going to be mad about this arenât they?â.
I seriously canât wait to play this and I love that a lot of these older games are finally getting remastered/re-released. Recently there was news that even Powerslave was getting remastered. Now we just need Heretic and a host of other great 90âs FPSâs.
Whereâs that âignoreâ button againâŚ
Guys Phil Spencer has been saying for years he wants to see Game Pass on every platform possible including Playstation and Nintendo. You need to start looking at Xbox exclusives in the same way you do with HBO Max, Netflix, Hulu, and Shudder exclusives now so when Phil inevitably works out some kind of deal to get Game Pass on Playstation and Nintendo consoles youâre not losing your mind.
Itâs like Apple having a dedicated Apple TV box while also having a Apple TV+ streaming service available on multiple devices. That model is the way forward for Xbox and Phil has been saying it for a long time now. It may not happen for a long while but understand like everything Phil says heâs saying it for a reason. If that strategy bothers you you need to start your 7 stages of grief now and get it out of your system because thatâs where weâre headed.
Agree - I want to see how many play this 25 year old game.
I get the argument about optics and such.
Quake 3 is better out of other arena shooters.
But I remember that Unreal the campaign right? Like Unreal and Unreal 2
Gawd - you are starting another microtribe? Quake v Unreal wars are back! LOL
Unreal Tournament easily outclassed Q3.
But well Netflix exclusives, Hulu exclusives etc. donât appear on other platforms. Hell, âlegacyâ Disney aside, Disney also doesnât release new stuff (ok mostly) on other streaming platforms.
The war never left, it just lay dormant in the hearts of gamers everywhere. War⌠war never changes.
Well, Unreal Tournament had vehicles. But Quake 3 was more intense. Also those crazy jumps.
Now that I think about, Quake vs UT reminds me of CoD vs Battlefield. And CS is somewhere
Hey guys, Quakeâs about to be annou- ohâŚ
EDIT: Real talk: I think a re-release of a quarter-century old game HAS to be on everything under the Sun. How many modern (under 25) gamers even know what Quake is?
These threads are the wastelands that you see in the Fallout game.
I didnât start anything. Iâm just trying to keep absolutely outrageous takes in check.
Besides there is not a lot better to discuss right now. Or do you want my take on Xbox imminent downfall, initiated by remastering a 25 year old game on the Switch?
Ok, ok, instead of arguing whether or not it releasing on everything is bad (itâs not), or Quake v Unreal (Quake, duh), canât we just be happy that Quake is finally playable on modern consoles?
