The only thing innovative about Quake 1 was the 3d acceleration support and the multiplayer (which nothing like that had been done before).
The only thing innovative about Quake 2 was…nothing. Yes, major improvements in graphics. But the game play in the Quake games has always been the same.
I found the game play in this demo way more innovative than both other quake (SP) combined! I am now interested in trying the full version, but I will wait till the price drops a little more.
And the Doom3 engine ONLY looks good if it is at 1024x768 or higher…other wise it looks kinda lame.
And for fucks sake people…how many times do I got to say stop putting specular on everything. Both D3 and Q4 look way better with the specular crap turned off. Yes a few places look worse…but the god damn dirt is not supposed to be shiny…..morons.
I enjoyed it though, and I did not have of the technical problems Ray mentioned...
