This May Be The Best Quake Video Ever Made

Kotaku AU


It’s been a while since I played Quake, and I was never that into it, but even I can appreciate this incredible vid from the Pubmasters.

It’s a mixture of spontaneous hilarity, planned hilarity, and some incredible feats of skill.

Oh, and just ignore that first five seconds of the vid!

    Have to watch this when I get home. I was very young when I played Quake but I still hav fond memories of it. It was probably the first real 3D game I ever played. Recently watched the speed runs of the game on hardest difficulty, a lot of skill involved in those runs.

    Ok, well I might as well burn my keyboard here and now. I’ll never be as good as these guys. That said, I do tend to play _new_ video games these days.

      _newb_video games :)

      QuakeWorld, Quake 3 / Live are still (imo) the best competitive fps games made to date.

        Amen to that. CSS, TF and CoD2 have changed the standard of competitive FPS from deathmatch to small team. It makes me sad and happy at the same time. Comp TF2 is one of the greatest things i’ve ever played, but I still miss the days when deathmatch was king.

        I really wish after RAGE, ID will stop pussyfooting around with iPhone bullshit and give us Quake 5 – a true successor to quake 3 (and lets just forget this quake IV nonsense)

      Yep. I hope id do make another multiplayer only Quake. I’ve never had nearly as much fun, nor witnessed as much skill with “modern realism” type multiplayer games.
