Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
No games system would be complete in today's market without the inclusion of a first-person shooter, and hot on the heels of the PlayStation 2 launch comes Quake 3: Revolution. In the usual tradition of this genre, the player is transported into an ultra-violent world where they have to fight with whatever weapon is available to be that last man standing, or, as is the case with this game, hold a white flag the longest.

The Quake games have had a long-standing relationship with the PC user, dating back to their predecessors "Doom" and its sequels, and has by many gamers been considered to be some of the best first-person shooters on the platform. Now is the time, like many of its predecessors, for the PlayStation 2 to have a crack at the whip, and it copes with the job elegantly, hardly breaking a sweat.

The player is placed in a beautifully detailed arena with a bunch of nasty killers and has to survive as long as possible until he or she is the only survivor, or finds the flag and is able to hold it for one minute. It sounds simple, but it's anything but. With stunning graphics, amazing speed and stomach-churning sounds, this game looks good and plays well But it lacks the one element that makes the PC and Dreamcast versions of the game so good: online play. Having said that, it compensates with a four-player option--allowing up to four people to play on the same console in quad-screen action. It's great fun, and the graphics hardly suffer at all. --Robert Hyde

Product Description
Quake III is a PC shoot-'em-up legend, regarded by many first-person shooter fans as the king of the genre, the one with the best arenas, most heart-pounding frag-sessions and convincing computer-controlled enemy bots. The good news is that it's finally made it to the PlayStation 2. And the even-better news is that it's been enhanced to suit its new console home, with a newly designed single-player campaign reflecting the move, and a new four-player split-screen mode giving instant multi-player fun for a bunch of friends gathered around a single machine. The 36 levels also include many new maps, specifically designed for these two new modes of play. What hasn't been changed is the finely balanced blasting action, the excellent range of weapons (including the chain gun, grenade launcher and famous BFG), or the beautiful creature and environment graphics. And both Deathmatch and Capture the Flag gaming is supported, along with a new Elimination variant.

4.0 out of 5 stars A GAME BEST SHARED!!!!, 23 Oct 2001
By Alex Hopkins (Bath England) - See all my reviews
QuakeIII is the latest in a long line of fantastic games from the original developers of the First Person Shoot-em-up - Wolfenstein 3D.
Back then, on the PC, when the internet was solely for the DOD and a few choice University's, this was an amazing 1 Player game. Since then, it's later incarnations have become gradually more and more aimed at network / internet gaming as this has become the choice battleground for gamers, and this has lead to Quake III being a very poor one player game.... But.... If you have 2 (or preferably more) controllers, and friends to play against... or are lucky enough to have a Net Connection for your Playstation II, then this is a MUST-BUY. The Multiplayer aspects of this game are superb, the graphics are stunning - the new rendering techniques make full use of the PSII, and the variety of Multiplayer games and Options is fantastic. One criticism however is that it is hard to handicap, so don't play against someone who's much better than you, or you will find yourself facing the floor a few too many times for it to be funny.

4.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant conversion of an already amazing game, 23 April 2001
By A Customer
This is the third incarnation of Quake 3, after the original PC and Dreamcast versions. It has come out of nowhere, EA havin denied its existence for months. It has, it fact, been in development since July. The good news is that the conversion is brilliant. Bullfrog has done a good job. The action is fast and furious, always moving at 60fps. The four player mode is not a let down, unkike a certain Unreal Tournament! The single player game is tough, with five difficulty levels. The multiplayer (what the game was really designed for) will keep you and your friends blasting for ages. In all, a brilliant game in all respects - graphics (some of the the best on PS2, if not the best), sound effects, and most importantly, gameplay. The bad news? (no game is perfect) - if you have ever played Quake 3 before (either on the PC or Dreamcast), you will not be finding anything new, apart from a few new maps. If you already own Quake, think carefully. Also, the music is pretty bad. But this does not detract from the overall feel of the game (if you hate it that much, you can just turn it off). Lastly, there is no online play - Sony have yet to bring out their Broadband adapter. You do get a four player mode, but really, this does not beat online play. So, get this game if - you have never played Quake before, or if you do not/did not get Timesplitters or Unreal Tournament. Quake 3 is the best first person shooter on the PS2 at the moment, so what more recommendiation do you need?

4.0 out of 5 stars Impressive, better than the PC version, 13 Sep 2001
By L Tyson (England) - See all my reviews
I bought this game last week and I expected the framerate to be slow, but it's as fast as anything. The one player is slightly easy but the ARENA mode is outstanding. The graphics are the best I've seen,this is the best incarnation yet and is better that the PC version.Smashing!
