During the exchange of e-mails between myself and
editor Kevin Shockey, I was looking at what was
already on my shelf to write about. Yes, I likely
should have suggested Quake 4, but I noted Quake 3
because I already had a copy of that on hand. As is,
Doom 3 gets about 3/4 of the text in my current draft.
Nice thing about Quake 3 is that you can run that on a
Pentium II quite nicely, assuming you have a half
decent video card (Quake 3 and Doom 3 are both
somewhat fussy in that area).

As for the other games, I may suggest those for future
articles, as doing some justice to Quake 3 and Doom 3
in 2,000 words is a tight fit...
