Great multiplayer not so great single player December 5, 2008 Shawn Vega (San Diego, Ca. United States) Enemy Territory: Quake Wars is a great multi-player game, probably one of the best multi-player games I've played in a while. The reason is that I like it so much as a multi player is that it's not just deathmatch; you have to work with your team to complete objectives and you get to use vehicles and tools.
The reason I don't like it as a single player game is that it lacks a good story line, which is something I expect from a single player game; instead it's the exact same as multiplayer with bots and no real humans.
In conclusion, if your looking for a game to play with your friends get this game and a copy for your friends. If your looking for a single player game with a good story line go with another game like Prey
P.S. This game is compatible with linux. I tested it on Ubuntu 8.10 DVD
Waste of time, unless you want to upgrade your machine September 19, 2008 Paul Wallace 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
I've played all versions of Quake and ET, and this one is one of the most resource-hogging, complicated POC version I've encountered. It's not enjoyable to play in single person, the actual graphics and processor requirements are greater than those stated on the box.
The objectives and characters are nothing new, really. Get yourself The Orange Box and enjoy something innovative.
hey September 15, 2008 hey (las vegas) I have had this game since it came out butt never play it much. Iplayed today for along time, there is more players had agreat time. with all the crudy games that have come out since after call of duty 4,this is asleeper you shoud give a try.
ETQW September 8, 2008 M. SASAKI The overall quality of the game is very good for the price. There are not so many the server and players now, but can still enjoy enough.
fun multiplayer but only if... September 4, 2008 David K. Barclay id recommend this game on one condition. you dont like mindless fragfests. only buy this if you like kill swarms of people in order to complete an objective. kind of a steep learning curve so be prepared. all the work might be worth it. i quit playing it practically right after i bought it. dont buy this because there are many better games out there. call of duty 4 for example. or team fortress.
