What's Hot: Great bot AI; Lots of variety; Active online community
What's Not: Ugly graphics; Terrible performance
In the game's first week, there seems to be an active PlayStation 3 community. Online games differ from their Xbox Live counterparts for how silent they are, since players with mics are the exception rather than the rule. As a single-player game, this version suffers a bit for not having Achievements. As meaningless as they may be on the Xbox 360, they serve as a guide through the content. There's no such system here.
The core gameplay is still plenty addicting, but given the wretched state of this port,
Quake Wars on the PlayStation 3 is mostly a reminder that this is a great PC game. Why aren't you playing that instead?
