Quake 4 Released

Quake 4 released on October 18 without much hype on the blogosphere. The bad part is that no trial download is available. So I'll have to wait for some time to get my hands on it. The gameplay videos posted on the net look promising though. It's based on Doom 3 engine. So you get all those zombies lurking behind the doors, along with excellent graphics. I hope they have maintained the high speed gameplay of Quake 3 Arena that has pretty much defined the first person shooter genre. Even after four years of playing, I am still addicted to it. Though improvement in technology should mean that games get better in new versions, Age of Empires 3 is a big let down. The graphics are better or shall we just say more elaborate. But that's it. The gameplay is pathetic. I can't even distinguish between most of military units, so I generally select them all without bothering. AOE2 is much better.
