On a closer examination, those screenshots do indeed look like they were taken from JDoom or something like that and had some clever editing done on them.

UT is mutch better... Quake is nothing that special, and boring!

Let me play the "it's what you're looking for in a game" card. Q3 is out and out rapid deathmatch. Finger on the button stuff - UT2003 is also moving towards that way of working, but better retains its sense of teamwork, Q3 lacked this where UT had it in spades. If you want to feel good about yourself and like fast play, Q3 is your game. If you want to be a part of a team and use a stratagy to win the day, UT and UT2003 are far more likely to serve your purposes.

Well when they make a counter strike on the ut engine (which they did mind you and it looked like BS), OR on quake 3, the only true team based game ive played beside the few squad matches in FS2, is Counter Strike. even when i use to teach game development classes for a comunity center, we use to have 10 vs 10 games, and hell, even one of the instructers above me was a Marine, and he said anyone runnin and gunnin gonna get sprayed by him lol... now funny thing is u kill a team mate u get booted or loose a turn... but i really think  CS owns team based games. the UT2003 team system is good admitily, but on my lil ol 400 system... what can i do lol... i need that p4 ghz.... (lemme see 400+1.0 ghz.... equals.... 1.4.... means faster ut2003 play... ;7 )

I personally think the best team game out there is Tribes 2; CTF in that is almost perfect. The reason I like the UT games better overall though is that Tribes 2 has no real singleplayer.

I tried real hard to like Tribes 2, but it just doesn't do anything for me. The game was the first I can remember with vehicles and so on, and whilst they looked good they felt terrible to play with. The rest of it just seemed empty and bland...

I just got a 'Holy ****!' in Q3A. :lol: I fragged the enemy flag carrier when he was six inches away from his flag, with one rocket.

Kind of funny actually, i've had Q3A for a couple years now, and only 2 weeks ago did i actually hear that "Holy ****!" thing.  SCared the hell out of me at first.

Tribes 2 is ok, but only if you have a computer that can actually think.  Sadly, mine is just slightly too stupid for it.

I dunno. In the brief time I needed UT (not played, NEEDED) it had a great single player element.

See first you start a last man standing death match with a HUGE number of bots. then you name them after the morons you work for. then get in there and proceed to work out some workplace aggression. :D Its amazing how much stress you can work off like that.
