    This game is one of the best online games. It still has a very active community online and its very competative. Ive been playing this game since 99 and it is still thriving with the same players. This game never gets old. I love launching someone into the air with a rocket and then shooting them down with a rail. There are all types of game modes to all weapons, only rail and other modsThis game is one of the best online games. It still has a very active community online and its very competative. Ive been playing this game since 99 and it is still thriving with the same players. This game never gets old. I love launching someone into the air with a rocket and then shooting them down with a rail. There are all types of game modes to all weapons, only rail and other mods that people come up. This is a very intense game, it might take some time to get used to the gameplay. The graphics to the game are great! You can customize things in the game to suit your style, for example you can choose a custom character or choose a default in game character, you can choose what your weapons look like and sound when you shoot them, there is just a bunch of things to change with the game. The single player part of the game just helps you practice and get ready when you actually face real people. There is no story to the single player. This game is for those people that have a few minutes to blow and want some intense action to blow it with. Make sure when you play all weapons mode that you bind your weapons to keys on the keyboard instead of scrolling through your weapons with the middle mouse wheel. This is a must have for any First Person Shooter lover. If you get it you wont regret it!… Expand

    It's an excellent game in my opinion. Fast, complex skill-based gameplay like the Quake series (including, of course, Q3A) is a breath of fresh air these days, where games with snail-slow movement, nearly insta-gib weapons, RPG item unlocks, and regenerating health can still somehow be labeled "competitive".

    It is truly among the finest in the Deathmatch genre.

    Very simple and at the same time very addictive. Only gun, only enemies. Classics of the multiplayer action games. Every starting gamer should play this game at least once.

    What else is more to say? Its the best multiplayer game i've played in my opinion and brought a new and advanced new engine in 1999, a Engine that a lot of big video game companies used for about five or six years... and that's good.

    Quake 3 took Quake 2 to new heights and kept true to the game mechanics adding so much eyecandy and pioneered the item pickups that were scattered throughout the level such as haste, invisibility and invulnerability. Based on a pure and strict multiplayer platform, this game gave way to team mode options while still allowing players to create their own maps, sounds and 32 bit texturesQuake 3 took Quake 2 to new heights and kept true to the game mechanics adding so much eyecandy and pioneered the item pickups that were scattered throughout the level such as haste, invisibility and invulnerability. Based on a pure and strict multiplayer platform, this game gave way to team mode options while still allowing players to create their own maps, sounds and 32 bit textures versus quake2's 8bit textures giving the player a sense of flashy deathmatch arenas designed for the pro-killer.
    Gravity and propulsion debuted here and the developers took those new mechanics to never-before-seen heights. This community of players still thrives 12 years after it was created. Master this game and everything new will seem slow, boring and scripted.    … Expand

    Still the best game to date. No game has ever come close. All game developers should be required to have 5+ years quake 3 experience. Maybe then they'd stop pumping out such garbage. It's a shame kids these days don't get gaming experiences like this anymore.

    Quake III Arena + Unreal Tournament were best FPS competitive games in that year and also for next years. They were also main graphic benchmarks and revolution engines used in many other games. This games are great to these days and still alive even it is 19 years now!!!
    Legendary FPS. Nearly perfect.

    One of the best shooter deathmatch games of it's time... and some would say beyond its time. This game is responsible for many an all-nighter with friends at LAN parties. Always a party favorite.

    FPS don't get any better than this. This is what the genre is meant to be. Speed, strafe-jumps, different weapons, fast action, and not hiding next to a box for 10 hours waiting for your chance to one-shot someone.

    All time classic FPS Arena.
    Cool variety of weapons, maps and gamemodes.
    Even if the only played are FFA, CTF and Freeze.

    Kickass music, smooth controls, fantastic action, Quake III is basically an adrenaline rush from the moment you start playing to the end, a game that is filled to the brim with joyful memories.

    One love.
    No matter the time, it always feels amazing!
    Too bad it takes some serious skill in 2021 to get back to public multiplayer.

    Amazing game. One of if not the best multiplayer shooter of all time. Has Doomguy, Ranger, Bitterman and lots of other playable characters, multiplayer with bots. Back when companies cared about their games and not the in-game purchases or microtransactions.

    **** all over games like COD and Fortnite

    Quake iii Arena; Es un juego muy entretenido, con buena banda sonora, la jugabilidada es como cualquier shotter pero mas rapido y algo mas intenso de la epoca en la que salio.
    La verdad que cuando era mas pequeño lo disfrutaba bastante jugar con los amigos y contra la maquita también era algo entretenido.
    Graficamente esta pasable y el resto esta muy bueno un 9 papus 7u7

    Great game. I still remember the Quake III tournaments that we played in his time. Hilarious among colleagues. A classic of shooters games.
