Enemy Territory Quake Wars review for the PC
Were it not our job to prove otherwise, we might suggest there aren't enough words to describe the frenzied anticipation facing this game. There's a lot of hype and hyperbole over what is essentially yet another online shooter.

Why all the fuss? There are two main reasons: the first is that it's the new Quake title. That alone guarantees a significant chunk of column inches. It's actually the prequel to Quake 2's Strogg bashing, set in 2065. The second is that it's a follow-up to the criminallyunderrated Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory by Splash Damage that was canned as a commercial add-on in 2003 and released as a standalone game for diddly-squat. For this title to deliver, it needs to maintain the elements of W: ET that still make it a popular online pastime despite an aging engine. And of course, it has to look as good as an FPS bearing the Quake name should look.
