I bet you can still find quake II servers.

Isn't Q3 free now? If it is, why would anyone play the demo?

 

[zylander]

I still play Q3 every now and then, I never have any trouble finding servers. There are surprisingly a lot still up.

IIRC, you can download the source and compile it.

Q3A 1.27g Game Source

This is the combined source code for Quake III Arena and Quake III: Team Arena. It can be used to build the 1.27g point release or the Team Arena release. It contains buildable project files and all related game source code as well as prebuilt tool executables.

I think you can build the binaries and such, but the other data (maps, textures, sounds, etc.) are still under copyright and not free. At least how it works with Duke 3D (which is now open source). You can build binaries, people have ported to OpenGL, etc, but to play it you need the data pack (from the shareware or full version).

Save yourself the hassle and buy it from this guy for $7.

Almost feel like reinstalling this and playing at 1920x1200. I bet it would still look very nice.

Quoted for truth.
