I've looked for it, but I can't find any download links that actually WORK. :mad:

Hard for me to answer, I as find Quake 1 flawless.  It's totally brilliant.  I wonder if there's any Linux binaries that actually WORK (ie, not compiled for libc5) out there.

Quake 2 was pretty good also, very different, but good in its own right.  The mission-based gameplay was a bit disorganized, but it wins in all other areas.

Quake 3 was...bleh.  Great for people who love multiplayer, I guess, but I never got much into that.  UT2k4 is a much better multiplayer game than Q3 anyway, from personal experience, so I bet the then-current release (plain UT?) also beat it.

I've recently given up on true gaming, so I don't think I'll even play Q4.  I might fire up Q1 every once in a while, but I don't go farther than that.

MarathoN:
I love the original Quake, too.

When I do get to play it, which is always only the demo, I won't stop playing it. :P

WMD:
Only the demo?  Ouch, sucks for you.  You're missing a lot of great stuff.

Aloone_Jonez:
The origional won't run on XP so I boot with FreeDOS and it works a treat.
