Looks like Dr Beef's Q2 port of Quake 3 Arena is releasing this weekend.

You'll need great VR legs, but this is going to be a fun game to play.

One for the Hangout group perhaps?

Dr Beef always puts up a website giving details of how to install his ports. I'll post it when it's available.

I can imagine that Q3 with VR would be a one stop ticket on the puke train.

Surprisingly, it's not according to the developer.
It's less intense than some other VR ports apparently.

I dunno - running the platforms on the YA side of Q3DM6 and some of the space maps should be pretty unsettling in VR LOL.

Yep, you'd think that, but the developer is adamant it's not that intense, especially if you already have good VR legs.

Played this last night and it's an incredible port. I seriously would pay good money for this on the Oculus store.
However I did get my backside handed to me royally. Some of the people on there have obviously been beta testing this for months and gotten very good at it.
