quake 3 on a console will suck, and it's made by some offshoot of Raven (Raven made Quake 4 and that was so very mediocre)

Sounds great! I hated the game on PC because all the insanely accurate railgunners. At least with a gimped controller, I'd be able to survive for 5 seconds maybe.

The new size limit is 150 MB, not 250 MB, which Joystiq keeps (mis)reporting.

Quake 3 is far too fast of a game for console controllers. The port may be perfect, but it won't be the same game.

Very cool. I always liked Quake 3 Arena better than Unreal Tournament. Although I really like both of them. If this is true I'll be getting it.

Funny, because I don't recall seeing anything about 250 MB from the official press release.

ok, as cool as this may seem, this game only really meets it's fast and frantic potential with keyboard and mouse. Sorry, but it's true. BTW, huge fan, even owned TA back in the day, so not trying to hate on this.

Anyone else remember when Q3A was on dreamcast how awff the hook it was? A fun game is a fun game, and for an XBLA title, it'd be perfect.

Say what you will, but i played both the pc and dreamcast versions, and once you got used to the highest controller sensitivity level, they were practically the same. the problem is people never tweak the settings to get the most out of their games.
i started playing halo 2 at a friends house the other day, with sensitivity set at default, the game was unbearable and slow until i fixed it.

Ok, this is just plain awesome. Quake 3 Arena is my all-time favorite FPS game. For me, before there was Halo, there was Q3A. I'm looking forward to this.

What about the file size? Q3A + Team Arena was well over 1GB when installed, so I'm curious as to how well they're going to compress everything. The last thing I want to see is all low-res textures at 1080p.

@ Grant : if they were practically the same, how come the scores on the DC/PC servers were always around 50 to 3 in favor of KB/M users?

I can't see the fast gameplay of Q3 ported to a 360 controller being fun. Same can be said about Unreal Tournament 3. Microsolf should really thing about mouse and keyboard support in game.

I fixed the link and updated the (now incorrect) link. Thanks for being persistent, ActionJackson!

Meh, you can just boot up your Dreamcast and play this online on some pirate servers.
