The official demo
for Quake 4 has been re-released. The singleplayer portion of the demo
starts from the beginning of the game as you and your fellow
squad-mates make landfall in Earth's epic invasion of the Strogg home
planet. You'll battle through two large areas at the beginning of the
game, including a heavily guarded Strogg installation and the chaotic
air defense trenches cut through desolate Stroggos landscape. It also
includes multiplayer action with two versions of the popular map, "The
Fragging Yard" - one for larger matches and another specially designed
for 1 vs. 1 combat. The maps are playable in deathmatch, team
deathmatch and tournament modes.

GameCloud has conducted an
interview with Thomas Langhanki from SEK about their upcoming
real-time strategy game. Here's an excerpt:
Thomas Langhanki - Well, if you’re a strategy fan then this is
certainly a title to keep an eye on! What I’m sure of is that we’ll
be able to deliver a game that’ll appeal to players that get games
for the singleplayer part thanks to the setting and the story we
created. And also reach the ones that are in it for multiplayer due
to the way the game is designed. Based on the feedback we got from
people who got to play the game so far, I’m sure features like the
army controllers are going to be received well.
I saw this Parawold behind scenes at E3, its definitely one of my
anticipated games! [E3

As most of you know, this feature called
The Search for
Quake Women Legacy was created in 2002, but that doesn't mean we
aren't still looking for the ladies listed under the
lost list. If
any of you know these old Quake gamers, feel free to pass them along
to the page. Thanks for your help!
Below you'll find the latest girls that have been revived:
On a side note, if anyone knows any of the ladies listed under the
lost list are really a guy gamer, could you
email me so I could remove
them from the list. There's no sense of having them listed, and if it
was a joke, I'll just remove their names from the list and bury the
thought. Thanks again!
