Start 2026 off right with the massive 77 map mod Quake Brutalist Jam III https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/01/start-2026-off-right-with-the-massive-77-map-quake-brutalist-jam-iii/
Major Linux gaming win this morning as Phil Spencer confirms over a leaked phone call that Microsoft will be pulling support for the Halo franchise on Windows and Xbox, leaving it an exclusive title for PlayStation and Linux for the foreseeable future.
"I just can't take this shit anymore." he cried over the line, as his wiretap rights were being grossly violated. "Nobody liked my platforms anyway. They were all fake players. To hell with them."
Who would have thought that ICE would recruit the wrong, trigger happy people, who would eventually shoot and kill innocent civilians… by recruiting on the disinformation platform X using actual Halo video game graphics and the headline “Destroy the flood”?
They were steering right for it.
@randahl Just wait till Electronic Arts releases (DoW) Department of War.

🎉 Happy birthday #Quake! On June 22, 1996, id Software launched Quake — the first full-3D shooter using the #QuakeEngine. Unlike 2D-sprite-based games, Quake featured fully 3D environments, dynamic lighting, and Lightmaps.
#HalfLife and #CounterStrike are built on the Quake engine — making it a milestone in multiplayer #FPS history. Earlier, #Doom (1993) set the stage with groundbreaking 3D visuals, network play, and the birth of #Deathmatch.
The evolution continued with #idTech2 through #idTech5 powering games like #Doom3 and #Rage. Developer #JohnCarmack was the technical genius behind id’s engines before moving to #Oculus.
Which #idTech-based games do you remember?
