Quake Live beta is up, running and totally free

Quake Live beta
If you’re the sort of guy or gal who likes to get your frag on, but you’re low on funds, listen up. Id Software’s miraculous Quake Live project - wherein the company has managed to squeeze the ultra frantic multiplayer FPS into a web browser - is now in its beta stage and ready for the public to play. According to Kotaku, all you need to do is register, download a browser plug-in, and start fragging.

Obviously, this is one hell of a technical achievement. Most people think “browser game” means a game is casual, based on flash, and super-simple, but Quake Live blows that idea right out of the water. Of course, the best part is the glorious free-ness of it all.

The official site is boasting “over 40 arenas and 5 game modes”, and the company is actively seeking gamers of all skill levels (they practically have a “newbs welcome” sign out), so there’s no reason not to partake in the gory joy.
