Why vi-oquake3? Its common sense that could run faster as emacs-ioquake3…

It looks good. However, a SDL software render (like the quake2′s one) is a better idea.

[...] Aquí tenemos el futuro de los videojuegos en el navegador, o no y además tampoco. Gracias a la liberación del código del motor de Quake 3 Arena la comunidad ha ido realizado con suma facilidad modificaciones y nuevos juegos, o como en el tema que nos ocupa ahora, una versión totalmente ajare de Quake 3 Arena renderizado unicamente con texto, a base de caracteres vamos. Vamos, esto se tiene que mover en PC´s ultramodestos a las mil maravillas. Aunque quizás, probablemente haya que entornar demasiado los ojillos para poder adivinar exactamente que es lo que tenemos delante… y no se yo si alguna visitilla al oculista si abusamos de ello. Renderizado en vi, como dirían los gafapásticos, con todo el respeto. [...]

You’re making a huge mistake supporint rendering in vi. Emacs is clearly the superior rendering engine. And NO UNICODE! Keep it straight ASCII or you’re be hearing from me on Slashdot.

I know it’s just an April Fools joke, but the idea doesn’t look as stupid as it seem (at least for me). I don’t know how smooth would be the gameplay, but playing q3, without 3D gfx acceleration, better than that, no 3D gfx at all, would be very cool All those old MUD games could hide in shame when compared to this Really, the only thing that doesn’t look too convincing in this screenshot is that text is unreadable Simplifying a few things would let the hud look more readable. The rest looks just sweet
This idea (even as a joke) isn’t really that stupid, especially compared to a Quake2 engine modification known as “Quake II AbSIRD” (should be “Quake II AbSURD” ;P ), which is totally unplayable, cuz no matter how hard I try, I can’t see a damn thing
