Quake III Arena on a six inch PC

[chockn]

i played quake on a 350mhz pentium with a tnt 2 ultra. this game doesnt need much :)

[eMILBULLsPL]

hehe i'am also playing q3 but on my n97 ;)

[XFullMeatInuYashaX]

WE GAUHT A ROKKET LAWNCHUR HEER.

[nblax41]

looks like an overgrown psp

[Lommy1337]

Can it run Crysis? XDDDD

[gtatec9]

well considering the fact that i could run this game on my dell axim x50v pocket pc in 2005 this is nothing special at all.

[shtpickle]

Is it really that amazing that it's running a 10 year old game smoothly??

[huddzzii]

please try crysis with high quality rendering mod :D my 5000$ computer runs on 20 fps on it with the MOD :P

[5197408581]

oq uqio

ooq

oq

hreqq

[24523160]

it would be funny to see an BSOD on it during this gameplay HAHA i would laugh a lot!

[razattack1337]

thats 6 inches? fuck it looks like 10?!

damn it I have a small penis

[SilenceWithinNoise]

Junk. Complete junk.

This device is not suitable for FPS. Why not make the screen even smaller? Wrist watch sized? lol

I'd recommend PAC-MAN (LOL) or Minesweeper hahahah ...

But each to his own :p

[razattack1337]

when it was released Q3 Arena used high specs, this is a good thing to carry around, smaller than a laptop. I know some people want something smaller than a laptop.

[Eatthls]

omg its bill roper! Oo

[adrienspawn]

I've got the Q1U and the 02. Q1U is a lot faster, but the OQO is just too sexy.

[green929392]

I Would Play Half-life one :D

[homer4556]

this is really a gaming thing

but it,,s cool for e-mail like he said.

quake 3 is old and try run doom 3 from that or the new one.

Nice little thing but looks like it cost alot

[fener97]

price ?

cheaper than psp?

[LandyGerhardt]

pussy

[SyringeCycle]

why not just get a laptop if you have to carry a mouse and a keyboard?

[jeremyBtyler]

thats what i do! i have a mouse as well

[turtlliwdnifuoyehthr]

@SyringeCycle

he can play it without the mouse and a keyboard

[MrCoolKid93]

my computer has 1.4 ghz... (and quake 3 plays fast)

[gameswindows]

Quake 3 is BEST epic Engine of World!!

[eggsyummy35]

That thing is faster than my computer im using now. FAIL on my part.

[decapattack]

Wow.. ou spend half of the video babling instead of playing...

[DannyElfman16]

:D i mean... we can play Quake live (which is very similiar to quake 3) via our internet explorer and installation have like 2-3MB, so i dunno im not like WOW.

[angeliroth]

hah god playing on that all the time will deffo screw your vision up

[Kevster012]

Oh no he said wow. Now the nerds are gonna be playing wow in school with these lol XD.

[ElCholoMeX]

play q3 arena on anything other than a pc and you are gone xD

[mikeshin0bi]

now try GTA 4

:D

[alexjseguin]

lol the think will just burst in flames...

[gtatec9]

my Dell Axim x50v pocket pc can play Quake 3

[CaptainVonFurry]

That was cool, what a neat little computer.

[janschaak2]

Its lovely that such a small computer can run stuff like Quake III already. Although you won't get 125 fps :D

[RenegadeMaster07]

it does load pretty quick though.

[aiyoriaoshi]

small screen = low resolution. Plus pam pilots are powerful these day too compared to pc's of 10 years ago. I bet he could push 60 with a vertical sync.

[DeiviZZZ]

bullshit. it does run smooth when he is playing alone, but when he is fighting with bot its a bit laggy, and try put in big map and 8 bots to test that UMPC

[L1GH7N1NG]

Try Crysis on that !

[darthmonq]

Rofl...

[dudesome6969]

@L1GH7N1NG

Why bother Quake owns!

[fuckzezima]

try running unreal tournament 2003 on that OQO model

[RenegadeMaster07]

ut2004 would be easier, it has a direct x 7 mode. So does Call of duty 2. However UT2k4 is a pretty big game.

[ctcraam]

even in DX7, UT2K4 is alot harder to play than Q3A 2k4 was made in 2004, Q3 is not only older but uses the very simple Q3 engine.

[RenegadeMaster07]

nah, the point of it was to make it playable on the same computers that could play UT99. If u can play quake you can play that.

I played quake 3 team arena with its big maps on a geforce 2 mx 32Mb and it ran it pretty well with some settings down, netbooks have much better graphics than that.

[m1rchegfn]

what resolution? 640x480 :D

btw i cant see a thing

[SNIPER4323]

video games video games games games:)

[6Diego1Diego9]

didnt look "smooth as silk"

[Elektribe]

That's because it wasn't. That's most definitely well under 60 fps... looks about between 15-20.

He should have put up draw fps and did a benchmark on it with timedemo.

But like he said, that's not what it's marketed for, it's for business.

He probably needed to lower the detail just to get it to run decently I'm guessing.

That isn't competitive level framerate, it's fragging with your buddies at work because your blowing time for shits and giggles.

[killervalonz]

The game is such..

[lightninghector]

As cool as that may sound/is - i dont think i would want a PC that small, id much rather be on a PSP for portable games.

[dragoncraz]

i have 19 inch screen

[jamie8sora]

where can i buy quake 3 full besides on the web?!?

[hellpuppet6]

does steam count as the web?

[dragoncraz]

i thinks so it has to be connected to web so it is...i think lol

[nirvanakcteen]

they have a quake gold pack for 30 bucks that includes quake 3, quake 2, and quake 1

[purplemutantas]

or you can try open arena which is an open source clone of quake 3 arena

[callmenapalm]

I could pone that guy in quake 3 arena.

[dfiendspirits]

Waiting For Your Video!

[dfiendspirits]

Waiting For Your Video!

[coondogtheman1234]

viaarena123 can i get on youtube using this little PC, id love to have this thing does it have full PC stuff like USB, and you would prob need an external cd drive but you can just put it on a flash drive maybe, can you tell me what this little pc can and can't do

[skylarg717]

i agree with fatezor... either do /cg_drawfps 1 or do a time demo..

[dopebanga]

fuck u rocket using ass holes think ur so good, really takes the fun out of that game

[DavinTerrizzi]

"fuck u rocket using ass holes think ur so good, really takes the fun out of that game"

LOL last time I checked, Quake=rockets.

[dopebanga]

yea and every other online game, dont take much skill to fire 5 of them things at some ones feet

[DavinTerrizzi]

You're saying quakerocketting takes no skill?

[kadafi070]

dopebanga check get quaked 3 movie or some else q3 movie Everyone uses Three basic weapons like rail lightning and ROCKET

[StenCdx]

heh.. rockets are the most skill needing weps in q3 theyre slow theyre not so heck of a accurate.. however u told rocks "take the fun out of game" then ur sadly mistakein the most annoying is when ppl do 2x railing

[fatezor]

i wont be impressed until you type /cg_showfps 1

or do a time demo!

we need benchmark results!

[bhaskarbrahma2000]

He calls it smooth.. if it were a higher difficulty, he'd be fragged before he could say ouch!

[lukaszek01]

WOW HeHe

[Riker1982]

Whoa, what nice performance and power on on this pocket thing to bring this up! *bang* 'IMPRESSIVE'.

[VoidKeeper]

NO IT'S A GAMING CONSOLE, xD, ok ok I know but this is awesome for games, I mean, I want a UMPC (going for the Asus, not sure how much I'll lose in performance, but I got one for under 500€ can't go wrong with that) I want it mainly for work on my electronic schemes and the touchscreen is awesome for that, still if the R2H can play these games as well that would be awesome :P , I've seen it run HL2 at the lowest settings, not at full but good enough.

[RHCAXD]

get a pandora console, more info on my channel, it is more powerful

[m03ez]

GPU most likely, but CPU i'm not sure. How does an A8-cortex 550 MHz CPU compare with a Ghz via CPU?

[Mar10Man94]

on a full size pc, it looks grainy, but on here, it looks FABULOUS!

[VADRIGAR666]

heh

[Ghozer]

Q3A isnt that much of a demanding game.. I'd be more impressed with it running the same-day equivelent of other games, such as Unreal Tournament, Half Life + mods etc.

[DavinTerrizzi]

I hope you mean the later UTs and HL2/Source Engine-based games. Because UT99 and HL's GoldSrc engine are pretty much by the same standards as Q3A's.

[maraz666]

I wonder that would run the *real* good old Quake from 1996.

[grandtheftautocj]

nice

[Mikemc]

Good old Quake :). I wouldn't use the keyboard though, I want to treat mine (when I get one) as a gameboy :D

- Mike

[haropro2]

That plays better than my laptop lol

Haropro2

Watch my vids

[QuakErDooM]

its AWESOME! 5 stars

[dannyrocker666]

nerd

[Mrakoslava]

Awesome

[Cob97]

DVD on dock station?

[viaarena123]

Yep, DRD RW on the docking station.

[ZombieYODA]

Hey Viaarena ...Great Vid! But I have a question about another game I would like to play on this device . (as NOOB as this sounds) I would like to play an MMORPG called "MonsterMU" . Do you think thats possible? I'm not sure of all the requirements ...Well thanx for the time and thats a great video that you shared to alot of gamers that a werent aware of this device .

[ZombieYODA]

Or should I get a Sony Vaio VGN-UX or Samsung Q1 for MMORPGs?

[wr194t]

sweet vid have being wanting to see vids like this.

[vincentcool2]

How much for the slick thing?

[viaarena123]

see OQO dot com

[Castigar2000]

I wouldn't call that too smooth, it's a reasonably good processor for that game but I'm seeing a lot of hesitation. Not necessarily heavy slowdown, but you'd definitely have some trouble with the Railgun in that game playing on the processor you're using. Quake III Arena is definitely an older game, but all things considered it's a nice mini PC, I'd just suggest keeping the graphs low, it'd probably do you some good to turn simple icons on and you'll get some reasonably smooth gameplay. Nice PC.

[xiayu27]

Maybe next time we'll ask him to type /cg_drawfps 1 and /com_maxfps 125 in the console so that we can see what he's working with. Not that I would be focused on playing Q3A on it, but it is cool that this mini PC can run it. 5/5

[madchevy]

how much is this little computer

[viaarena123]

see OQO dot com

[psyco018]

any chance of testing the games mohaa or bf1942? also how about some 3d mark scores

[BlagDAD]

This thing has *only* 8600Gt gfx with only 128mb so not good for large textures but runs pacman very well at 480x320 res if you lower the FPS to 5.

[MangoSmurf]

i have no valid clue what you're trying to say...this thing can't run counterstrike source yet, so i assume it a lower video card. assume either a 64 or 128mb video ram. and nvidia 8 series is not even out yet to be fit in a mini cpu.

stop saying stuff you dont even know what you are talking about

[Jagi79]

LOL at 8600GT. The card alone is bigger than this thing.

[macnation]

Are you running vista or xp? I think its xp but i cant be sure.

[viaarena123]

It is running Windows XP but you can also buy it was Vista installed.

[MangoSmurf]

what is the the video card specification on this thing?

how many video ram does it have? 128mb? and lastly what is the max refresh rate can this thing. Good vids cheers

[viaarena123]

There is 32 allocated ram with the integrated VIA VX700 UniChrome Pro II graphics. I think the refresh rate is 75.
