Recently I downloaded a bunch of demos of some of my former qwctf friends and competitors. I found out they are still playing in international matches no less; as team north America. I was pleasantly surprised when i saw the game I once played played with such mastery and finesse. I knew then I needed to make a movie, not to show off some technical movie making skills (which i have none of), but to show off a game.
While developers are releasing more and more slow/dull counters-strike clones, It maybe nice for people to see what games "hooked" the previous generation of gamers (yeah even previous to quake2/3). When you see the videos, and imagine that this was what gameplay was like on pentium-166's with 56k modems and no opengl. You may start to understand how and why a game like quakeworld ctf was so addictive to play on the net.
EDIT: I recently released a short new video of some other footage I had. I didn't have much time to finish it properly, but there is some extra qwctf footage.
