@Kell 
Have you tried Call of Cthulhu for XBox? Pretty cool, I have been rather afraid and I haven't even encountered any monsters(almost) yet :D Played it for about an hour and then the shit FROZE on me, they have these forced-view things sometimes when you go into a room, so you notice some valuable detail or the like. It did one of those and then it froze like that and I couldn't move or look around, waited for about a minute and a half but nothing happened, I could go into the menu and everything. It was looking at something fairly creep as well, it was not nice! Anyway, except for the console fps controls it looks like a really nice game. Recommend everyone try it when it comes out for PC in the beginning of spring unless it should come to suffer from Console-Itis.

Thanks - I shall begin reconstructing the zip for permanent upload ... sometime. 
Quake Mobile 
I remember this being mentioned a while back, guess its coming out now?

Of course, for most of us this is almost entirely useless, though its worth noting that the review suggests that you can run any mod you please with this version of the game.

Naturally, the reality may be a different story as you're going to be bound by the limitations of the phone (storage, memory, processing power etc) so I doubt ALL maps and mods would work.

Someone on another page pointed out that you could use this as a portable demo player though - so you could possibly watch your QDQ or whatever on the way to work or what have you.

Another marginally useful thing (I guess) is that you could maybe use it as a way to test your maps and stuff on 'low end' hardware, if you don't have some shitty old PC lying around. 
Yeah 
I'm gonna play Marcher on my Samsung. Like my normal tower was able to run it without problems, let alone my phone. 
Budding(or Perhaps Budded) Web Masters 
Here is your chance, they are looking for you...

I Hear The Sequal Is Gonna Be Really Good 
Mobile Quake: Cancer Edition 
X_X Kinn That's Awful 
My dad died of cancer when I was 6!!!

(just kidding, he died of Amyloidosis) 
Doom Would Be Better 
I still utterly loathe the use of mobiles for any reason other than an emergency communication tool, but I'm thinking Doom would make a better port, especially as you wouldn't have to worry about the pesky looking-up-and-down thing. Maybe they already have Doom, I dunno. 
They Could Even 
Give the boss monsters a new attack that sends a message to the mobile's emitter for an extra big microwave pulse, you know, the sort you can feel right in your temples. Rumble pads Move over! 
Cthulu 
Glad to hear from someone who likes the game. I was reading a few opinions from the release date and they weren't too good. I guess now the game has been available for a short while people have had a better chance to appreciate it.

I've been looking forward to it (the pc version) for a long time, as it sounds like it should be really immersive and spooky.

I'll probably have to grab a copy soon then! 
Lucky Xboxers :( 
still though, i'm glad to hear that people are liking it. :) 
 
there are some legal questions about this mobile quake ... and there is m already mobile doom for windows mobile and simbian and btw im writing this from my phone sitting in the pub ;) 
Speed 
get drunk already and calm down, bitch 
Drunk Yes 
Everclear and loli! Hurrah! 
Mobiles 
there are some legal questions about this mobile quake

Please keep us posted. In addition, i'd just like to make it clear that the moment some "Internet Entrepreneur" tries to make money flogging existing mods/maps for mobile quake (and you know that someone will fucking try) is the moment I will get medieval on their arse/arses �_� 
Decent Q4 DM Map 
No 
Map releases aren't newsworthy here.
Kidding. 
Prison Abuse 
I like the color scheme, and the oppressive, towering structures. Will need to download this and run through it once I get home, maybe even try a duel. 
Q3 Maps By Zombie 
I can't find any, but I want them. Any ideas? 
Yeah. 
Ask Zombie. He's on #terrafusion on quakenet.net , when he's awake. 
Legal Question 
cause i don't know much about all this stuff, but:

is it legal to use a recorded version of some quake music in d3? 
Necros 
I would think that the answer is NO, unless you can obtain a written permission from Trent Reznor, which doesn't sound very likely. 
Rats 
:\ 
Necros 
small clips of music, like the NIN riffs used in Zeroister are considered Fair Usuage. So the answer is, it depends. 
Well No, 
i mean, it would be a fair amount of the music, not just a couple of seconds.

i was hoping because they were both iD games that it would maybe be ok, but it's not that big a deal in the end.
