Today marks the 14th anniversary of the release of the shareware version of QUAKE back in 1996. id's first-person shooter changed the face of computer gaming in many ways, and put this site on the map, and it will always hold a special place in many of our hearts. I'll play a little QUAKE LIVE as the space marine today in honor of the occasion.

So many Quake memories!
Amen! I actually have Heat.net to thank for getting me playing online for the first time around '96-'97. That first night of fragging real people is probably my fondest PC-gaming memory and instantly convinced me that online-gaming was the future :).
