would u really say q2 revolutionized online gaming?

i would say quake1 did more for online then any game. but to each his own.

 

[Maverick]

1. Doom2 - brought us the glorious world of multiplayer deathmatch and coop
2. Quake - brought us addicting, awesome internet play
3. Tribes - brought us vehicular combat and large scale multiplayer team play
4. Half-Life - made modding what it is today and helped support gaming communities and constant improvements
5. BF1942 - made vehicles essential and took massive multiplayer gaming to the next level

Can't wait to see what comes next.

When Quake came out, I didn't have internet access. I remember trying to put together a dial-up game with my friend across the street and it was slow and laggy.

By the time I got to college, QII was where it was at, and it seemed to me that it was easier to find/join a game, and that it was much better and faster to play, even over dialup.

Maybe it's just my (mis)perception since I had little experience with multiplayer QI.
