"Quake may be the most influential game of all time. Not the best game, not the most innovative, but the most influential. Without it, the industry would be a very different place today. It gave rise to many of aspects of modern gaming that we take for granted. Its developers, modders, and even the very code of the game itself are ubiquitous in the industry today. Id Software's 1996 FPS gave rise to 3D gaming, client/server online play, the most prolific mod scene in history, multiplayer clans, server browsers, eSports, mouse-look as the PC control standard, Valve and dozens of other companies, and even 1UP's sister website, GameSpy. Without Quake, it's unlikely another game that featured the same suite of innovations would have come along. We would have had to wait for each of those things one at a time."Have fun reading the full article.
"If you will have an interview with your new boss, would you like to tell him something about Quake?You can read the interview on derQuaker.
I would just say that I’m used to play in a sport competition, and competition is an important thing for work. It’s a good experience, I really don’t waste my time in gaming and I really enjoy this accumulation of knowledge.”
Getting stitches at lake Tahoe hospital. Busted my knee open on boat. It's so narly I can't show photo...
It seems that fnatic doesn't send me to Quakecon, so Quake is over for me since there is no events anymore, sorry guys.
How can you handle the big fame? A lot of girls want to have sex, children and family with you. A lot of boys too!
Yeah I have got a couple of indecent requests, but I love my wife and my daughter *smiles*. My young baby likes to watch VODs of the matches everybody laughs a lot. My wife not that much, but she has got a Quakelive account, too, and she already played in past.
Looking back at the trend of the scene since the release of Quake 3 in 1999, some names still remain. One example is Anton ‘Cooller’ Singov, who is always a dangerous opponent, but rarely has been claimed as Championship winner. The eternal second place if you will.
The scene today’s offers some well known names including Rapha, Cypher, strenx, Spart1ie, Fazz, k1llsen and many more. Sponsored by large companies they operate gaming not for pleasure only, but also as a source of income.
You are in a good shape right now, but who will win the Dreamhack in your opinion?Definitely check out the full interview or you will miss out on his interesting answer and a pretty epic picture!
I will try hard to win of course, but in the last 2 years I lost many events in Quake scene. Nowadays I am trying to catch up because I realized some time ago that I really miss the times of winning tournaments. It`s such a feeling that u will remember till your last days, so my dream is to win some tournaments again. Hard work is waiting for me but I’m looking forward to that.
