Warsow - An Ultrahardcore FPS

Warsow is a free, open-source FPS based on a modified Quake II engine. The game is mostly Quake-style deathmatch, with a focus on speed and trickjumping. This is a video of some excerpts from a recent Warsow competition. Yes, the game really is that fast!

this looks pretty awesome, will have to download it. The videos reminded me a lot of quake 1 style deathmatch, though with a pace probably closer to doom deathmatch. One of my complaints about quake 2 DM was that it was so much slower than Q1DM.

Now we have a whole generation of players who are used to console shooters with analog joysticks - it's like playing through molasses compared to using a keyboard and mouse. I think if they allowed both K&M and joystick players on the same game and same server, even an average K&M player could score higher than the best joysticker.

^ I found Quake 2 multiplayer to be a lot faster than the original Quake multiplayer. I played so much Quake 2 deathmatch in the 2nd semester of my 2nd year at university that I still get the urge to run out of the room when I see a green light in my peripheral vision.

Shadowrun was pretty much the only FPS game to allow console players and PC players to compete directly. It didn't work out that well because the developers chose to reduce the accuracy and speed of the mouse in order to even the playing field. That was not theonly problem with the game but it made me not bother to try it.
