Of course, this isn’t just a means of dishing out old games. You might as well leave the Bethesda Launcher installed on your PC because next week Quake III: Arena will be free for anyone wanting to relive the glory days of a LAN party. You could have picked up the original Quake last week but if you happened to miss that, there’s more free games to sink your teeth into this week! Quake II is now free on the Bethesda Launcher for 72-hours (starting last night) and all you need to do is login into the Bethesda Launcher which is, admittedly, a hefty request. Yet that disappointment won’t stop me from getting in on the latest free game action! To celebrate the online version of QuakeCon, Bethesda has been making all the older Quake games free on its PC launcher. So I booted up Quake Champions, and it was crappy so I never actually tried anything Quake ever again. Oh, how I longed to experience what they had! I sought the exhilaration of leaping from corner to corner of some abstract map, gunning enemies down in mid-air with that cheeky SMG. The days of beefy rocket launchers, jump pads and blisteringly fast movement. Older sages have oft huddled around the glow of a CRT monitor and imparted upon me stories of their glory days. I am of an age where I’ve only heard about the Quake franchise.
