Archiving the history of the video game Quake 2: created by id Software; customized by the Quake 2 community.
The Quake 2 community — featuring player’s philosophies, revisiting the websites of Quake 2 clans, and returning to the scenes of all-night LAN parties — here are the human stories behind the game. Thank you to so many people, all around the world, who have made and continue to make Quake 2 the most fun game to play on Stroggos — and Earth! You are appreciated.
The_DM, creator of CTF+ and QTracker and BMOC at the Gunslingers clan, sends word of a LAN party within driving distance of my house. Wish I wasn't moving into the house this weekend. :P On July 26, 1997 there will be another Perry, Ohio LAN DeathFest. The carnage begins at 11:45AM and runs for 12 hours. Admission is $10, which gets you pizza and drinks.
It's been a long, strange trip, and it's good to be home. Texas is flat and hot, and way more pre-fab than any other place I've been to, including Florida, which is saying a lot. By now you've probably heard about Denny's being the only restaurant within easy walking distance from the event, to which I can only add: .
Recorded entirely in our home studio, the show is intended to bring gaming news to the audience in a different format than many other shows. We like to blend a lot of humor and sarcasm with the actual events. Blue (of Bluesnews.com) calls us the "Dream On" of radio shows, in reference to HBO's television program, which combined a narrative with movie clips to emphasize the main character's state of mind.
Frag.Com's photo album of the biggest Quake event ever. Photography by Jonathan "ZyFly" Works. Sizing, thumbnails, HTML, and captions by Martin "DemonEater" Cox. Special thanks to the #trinity crew for their input.
Next up was a gentleman whom calls himself "hyPer" and he runs a web site called In The Pit Rocket Arena Strategy dedicated to...you guessed it...Rocket Arena. Mace Royer was live in the studio tonight. GIRLBOMB is still out sick and the "chatbitch" loonyboi sat in her stead.
