Enemy Territory: Quake Wars

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars (ET:QW) is a first-person shooter video game, and is the follow-up to the 2005 title Quake 4. It is also the first game in the series to be rated T by the ESRB (With the descriptors of Mild Language and Violence. Mild Blood is featured but only on the Microsoft Windows version). It is set in the same science fiction universe as Quake II and Quake 4, with a minimal back-story serving as a prequel to Quake II. It is the second multiplayer-focused game in the Quake series after Quake III Arena.

Quake Wars features similar gameplay to Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, but with the addition of controllable vehicles and aircraft as well as multiple AI deployables, asymmetric teams, much larger maps and the option of computer-controlled bot opponents. Unlike the previous Enemy Territory games, Quake Wars is a commercial release rather than a free download.

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars was developed by Splash Damage using a modified version of id Software's id Tech 4 engine with MegaTexture rendering technology. It was released for Microsoft Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The game received mostly positive reviews upon release, although it received some criticism on consoles.

Famous quotes containing the words enemy, quake and/or wars:

    “For my enemy is dead, a man divine as myself is dead,
    I look where he lies white-faced and still in the
    coffin—I draw near,
    Bend down and touch lightly with my lips the white face in the
    coffin.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.”
    —William James (1842–1910)

    “Did all the lets and bars appear
    To every just or larger end,
    Whence should come the trust and cheer?
    Youth must its ignorant impulse lend—
    Age finds place in the rear.
    All wars are boyish, and are fought by boys,
    The champions and enthusiasts of the state:”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
