    Regarding Quake 5, from what I've read id probably will do after they've made Doom 4, which is being worked on now using their new id Tech 5 engine (which they are using to create Rage and will probably use it for Quake 5 and/or a sequel to Arena).

    I'm sure you've heard of quake live...I guess that will be the fifth one.

    I would hope not, since it's just Quake 3 in a browser.

    But yeah, I hope a Quake 5 gets made. Preferably in the vein of the first one. The Strogg are interesting and all, but so was Shub Niggurath and her merry gang of beasties.

    As far as I'm concerned, there hasn't been a Quake 2 yet.

    ^ Agreed. I still pretend Quake 2-4 never happened. It's made me a happier person.

    After the recent takeover, I hope id dies a quick painless death. But then again, one might argue they've been gradually dying ever since 1996.

    I hope not. They have been progressing with the game for a while and the series for me was pretty good. The only problem with the series is that they had you doing alot of side missions in with the real missions. So when you play it and you finish a story, your confused with the real story at the briefing. And just to throw it out there, I thought Quake 2 was better than Quake 3 and 4. Quake 3 was just an arena. All you need is the demo really.


    I haven't played Doom 3 yet, but I'm still schyched about Doom 4. Kinda cool to me. Different versions of demons. Fun


    I also want more weapons like in Quake 4. Like the BFG 2000. I want a big explosion.

    Plus, who in the world could forget Wolfenstein? The FIRST FPS ever made!

    The next Wolfenstein is supposed to come out midway through August this year.

    I think the takeover is the best thing that could have happened to them. Now it means that they don't have to worry too much about getting their games published and concentrate more on development.

    I knew that. I just want to make a point that id Software is not that bad.

    I beg to differ. Catacomb 3D predates it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catacomb_3-D

    There was a tank 3D game even before that one. I forget the name now.

    Well, Wolfenstein was the first good one anyway.

    Y'know, I think they should make a movie about Quake. They made one about Doom and that was just about scientists making a portal at hell. Not that bad. Strogg, taking over earth, the humans making weapons learning about the Stroggs weapons then destroying the race. That would be cool.

    Hovertank 3D was id's first 3D game (developed in 1991) and arguably the first "first person shooter".

    Wolfenstein, Rage and Doom 4 first.

    Doom 4 is under production - it is "neither a sequel nor a reboot". So it will probably suck.

    Quake 5... No clue. But really, they've got simultaneous development of id Tech 5, Wolfenstein, Doom 4, Wolfenstein and Quake Live going on. That's a lot of work.

    So Doom 4 is the Quake 2 of the Doom series?

    Imagine if Telltale had gone "We're making Tales of Monkey Island" BUT it's not a reboot or sequel.

    Emoticons can't accurately describe how I would feel about that, but I think it would go something like this:

    I agree, and they should also add little icons under our names that show which games of theirs we own :D

    I also use to complain about the avatar size, but I actually like their reasoning for it.
