How about UnrealLive http://www.attackofthegamer.com/2009/05/15/quakelive-how-about-unreallive/ http://www.attackofthegamer.com/2009/05/15/quakelive-how-about-unreallive/#comments Fri, 15 May 2009 14:47:07 +0000 jason http://www.attackofthegamer.com/?p=114 I haven’t been playing QuakeLive much, because honestly, it’s not as fun as I thought it was going to be. It seems the match-up system doesn’t really work all that well, usually I get stuck with 3 or 4 people who are just to good to be playing at a lower level.

I never really liked the weapons of Quake 3, and the dynamics behind the PvP. I don’t know it just didn’t feel like it was playing right. I guess I just liked Unreal Tournament a whole lot more. And I’m not talking 2k7, 2k4, 2k3, I’m talking the original version of Unreal Tournament.

There wasn’t a better game for fragging IMHO. It even had its own stats system, where you could see how well you were doing VS everyone on the internet.

The original Unreal Tournament has to be revived. If id software can do it, I’m sure Epic can pull it off. It wouldn’t even need any significant changes, I would rather no changes, but it would be cool to see a match-up system much like QuakeLive, and an achievement system, etc.

Maybe one day this will happen, until then I am going to have to keep hoping.

On a sidenote, while previewing this post, I noticed that google ads is spitting out links about terrorism. I wonder how the linked terrorism with Quake or Unreal. Does Jack Thompson have something to do with this? LOL.
