QUAKE4 is not like doom3, the only similarity that i see is that they both run on the same engine.
Quake 4 is far better for single player game, it has outdoor levels, vehicle combat and more open areas.

Doom 3 has the fear factor but not the excitment and structure as the single player in Quake has.

I think he is saying that Quake 4 have a copy protection scheme working and alcohol isn't breaking it (copying it), like it does everybody's else.

O. I thought it was something like that then when I read the post below I thought it was something else.

Exactly....apparently a very sophisticted anti-copy code written onto this new game install CD....guess I'll have to make sure that cd is kept scratchless!!!!!!
