Quake Done Quick is an ultra classic, and it's awesome it's gained enough fame to get its own Wikipedia page . It was amazing way back in the day, but it's still no less amazing. My little claim to fame is I used to play QuakeWorld quite regularly with one of the founders of QDQ. Before it was called Quake Done Quick, it was called "Nightmare Speed Demos" (http://web.archive.org/web/19970719050959/http://www.planetquake.com/nsd/ http://web.archive.org/web/19970719050959/http://www.planetq...). Radix (who at the time, went by "Lord of Radix") was a member of the "Deadly Venom Clan", and was one of the last keyboard-only holdouts in Quake, and despite using the keyboard for everything in Quake, was still a force to be reckoned with in deathmatch. Anyway, I always smile when I see QDQ mentioned on the internet. Every few years, I dust it off an watch the whole thing and amaze myself in how precise all those actions are. Quake was such a fantastic game mechanically, and I wax nostalgic over the long-lost sense of community it bore, compared with the ridiculously disrespectful nature of internet nerd assholes these days (It probably doesn't help that I mostly play League of Legends these days).
