Questions
1: What do you enjoy most about the Holidays?
Answer: I
just like that holiday feeling you get when the Holidays come
around.
Questions
2: Can you explain your current activity in the
gaming community? What are the games you have enjoyed since
you stopped playing Quake 1?
Answer: I
have taken a liking to Real Time Strategy based games like
AOE2, and Squad Based Shooters like Rainbow6/Counterstrike. I
also love sports and try to play the computer version if I can
(usually any EA-Sports title). Basically if it's a well-done
game, regardless of genre, I will at least try and evaluate it
for further enjoyable play.
Questions
3: In what way do you feel the Quake community has
changed since Quake III Arena came out last year?

biggest change to me is the wide acceptance and recognition
from other countries. There's much better competition and
player base from all over the world these days.
Questions
4: Have you had a chance to check the Team Arena
Demo yet? If so, what do you enjoy the most about it?

really enjoyed the teamplay. There's some different styles of
capture the flag team work in it, being able to play with a
real goal in mind.
Questions
5: With id Software's new project being
focused on Doom, is there any features you would like this

only thing I would request is if they could bring back that
old, fast paced deathmatch feel to the game that made the
original Doom such a big success.
