This is my favorite generation of graphic style. It's simple and doesn't get in the way of the game. I swear new games will add trash and random objects in your way just because...

In new games with up to date graphics I end up losing attention on the game and start looking at all the random objects.

Yeah I agree. Then you catch on some stupid ledge that's left sticking out after the last dozen 'cosmetic only' ones

Couldn't agree more. That's exactly what I felt like when Quake III came out... "Why is the screen so busy? So much garbage to distract from the game".

Maybe I'm just old now, but damn I loved Q2.

Also, all of the mods were incredible. Hopefully they will work... I think I have my WOD paks around still.
