By this time, we all know that a Mac version of Quake 3 is slated for a concurrent release with Windows Quake 3. We have been moved to tears seeing beautiful pictures of Unreal stream across the web, running on the Mac. We have read twenty conflicting reviews on whether or not Dark Vengence is worth the purchase. I own a rev. B iMac, and can't get Unreal or Dark Vengeance to run worth diddly-squat.
Quake is a first person shooter done right.
Now folks, I have yet another admission to make. I have never finished the single-player version of Quake, and I never plan to do anything of the sort. What id did so well in Quake was networking, and that is the topic of this series. You are missing the best part. In this series of articles, I am going to show you how to play networked games.
