    It has become faster and more fun, it has changed a lot, there is no plot in the game now, but this is not a problem, the game has a goal to defeat all enemies in the arenas
    Weapons from Q2 moved to the third part of the Railgun and the rest and redesigned all weapons
    The Arenas themselves from the creators of the game are well designed and dynamic, I had fun playing them, I still play    It has become faster and more fun, it has changed a lot, there is no plot in the game now, but this is not a problem, the game has a goal to defeat all enemies in the arenas

    The game has models from all other games id: Doom guy, Ranger, Bitterman

    I played with the Ioquake 3 mod which improves textures and other elements even more
    My favorite weapon: Shotgun, Plasma, Rocket Launcher, Railgun

    My first ever FPS... The best there is in my opinion! When it comes to fps you must play quake 3 area. The maps, the mechanics, the game modes... everything was amazing!!

    Without a doubt, the best PC-to-console port ever seen.

    The only reason I can't give the game a perfect score is the 4 player limitation on online mode.

    Quake 3 Arena is so damn good, scratch that, so damn near perfect, that it makes anybody who believes the future of gaming is not online look like a fool.
