The people at Raven did an excellent job with this game. It utilizes the Quake III engine, thus the graphics are superb. It offers both a single player, story line, gaming experience (which Quake III is lacking) and a Deathmatch/tournament, Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag game play like Quake III. It is like having two games in one, and as a matter of fact, the game puts two icons on your desktop to separate the two types of games. As mod/map/model makers get geared up on this title, there should be some very interesting things you can add to the basic version. In fact, there are a handfull of new maps already available. Moreover, there are many internet servers running this game so you can indulge in internet play. The weapons are pretty cool, each has a secondary fire mode, but too many are difficult to use well in the heat of the fire fight, and require you to be on target. Not enough of the weapons cause collateral damage.  I actually like this title better than Quake III.
