Question for those who know more about Quake 3 than me. Is the boss you fight at the end of Quake 3 a Vadrigar? I'm asking because it called itself the master of the arena, and it was also had the voice of the narrator. However, the Vadrigar were also a race of beings that created and watch over the arena itself. Is this Vadrigar supposed to be the one in charge of the arena? Very much like how a cock fighting ring owner would be in charge of their "arena"? Or did Raven just put no thought into the subject at all?

As an added plus, does anyone here have a picture of the Vadrigar from Quake 3? (A good one, not those bad ones on google) I remember the design being pretty cool, and I kind of wanted to draw one.

Did you know that if you beat him 10 times on Nightmare difficulty you unlock a golden railgun skin?

You also have to do it in a row without dying within 30 minutes and using only a gauntlet.

If I recall correctly Xerox, err I mean Xaero is an invincible warrior who created the arena to find someone able to kill him. Not sure though. Turns out he's a giant pussy aim botting bitch who wants to fight in the most open map possible. No wonder he's so good, if he took the time to actually fight in other arenas he'd probably be average at best. Cool flip though.

Interesting, they must have changed the "story" PS2 version from the PC. I think the Vardrigar appeared twice in the game. I'm just trying to collect as much information as I can.

Probably not. You should've asked your question in one of the subforums. I doubt anyone in General Discussion has even played the game in years.

If we're being honest, the ps2 version is like that ugly step child that doesn't belong anywhere. It's like that book where bobba fett doesn't die in the sarlac. Sure it's ok to read but that totally didn't happen. Xaero is the final boss of quake 3 end of.

I tried a bit of Quake Arena Arcade on Xbox 360.
It really sucks. It's basically the same game as Q3A with an extended SP mode (against bots) and some really poorly made extra custom maps, but the game is just too fast to properly play it with a controller.

The Dreamcast port of Q3A really outshined the PS2 release,imo. The Dreamcast came with online multiplayer support out of the box, and it supported the Dreamcast mouse and keyboard. I guess they had to give the PS2 release something, and added in a "campaign"

I'll not rush out to try it anytime soon then :(

I find any action game difficult on a console, keyboard and mouse all day long for me

Im really glad and proud this question was raised so scholarly. I think once we completely build the chinese superscope and find out more about planets outside of this solar system..more will be revealed about this ancient and powerful identity.

I read this and find, as a dedicated, highly learned player, to be a bullshit hoax.

IF xaero really wanted to defeat anyone, it would have chosen dm17 to be your end.
