Quake IV Preview On GameDaily

GameDaily has a preview for Quake IV and here is a snip:In the opening sequence you're "dropped in" with your squad (known as the Rhinos). You're basically the team that's sent in before the military fully knows what the Strogg are up to, so you think that you're the one who's going to deliver this final climactic blow to your opponents; the strike that would just annihilate them. However, your ship is shot down and you crash land onto Stroggos, but since the Strogg assume that you and your buddies were killed upon impact you're left for dead. When you come to and step out of your pod you come to the realization that things aren't as they seem, and that unleashing this supposed last strike is going to be extremely difficult, but as I said, you're going to have a lot of help. Check out that preview for Quake IV.

Omaha Beach Mod

Orbitius released a multiplayer Omaha Beach Mod for Jedi Academy.It's very hard not to compare this map to the one found in Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, a map to which I am very accustomed, being it one of MOH's greatest maps. smile However, Orbitius and Hatrus have done a magnificent job recreating a similar style of level for JKA. Now, I've never actually seen the original Omaha Beach pictures, so I can't compare it's likeness to those, but if the MOH level is anything to go by, this is fairly accurate.. except I didn't imagine they had aircraft carriers at Omaha.. but thats beside the point. Check out that Omaha Beach Mod that's available on Jedi Knight Files.

If you ever wanted to use Final Fantasy weapons in Jedi Academy now you can with this Final Fantasy X Weapon Pack.I think i counted 9 new weapons, all classic FFX weapons, with the exception of the Pupu, which can be found in other FF games too. The models used are very well done, however I felt they were a little too thick, compared to the originals, which were that bit more curved. It'll become apparent what I mean when you see the Nirvana. Also, I think a little more could have been done on the shader work, and texture work. That's all on Jedi Knight Files so check it out.

Nkenobi released a Jedi Academy, duel map that is called Meta Lab which looks pretty nice from the available screenshots.The designs used for effect really help this map stand out. while some may think the lighting is to dark, I think it helps with the feel and look of the map overall. This would be a cool little duel map to add to someones duel server. That's all on Jedi Knight Files.

See you slugs later.

The map is called The Lakes of Blood and Tea and it's for Jedi Academy and designed for Free For All. The title is also kinda weird what with the Tea reference and all.
