Quake Arena Arcade coming to Xbox LIVE on Dec 15, but you could play Quake Live right now for free

Above: Quake Arena Arcade for XBLA sounds kind of cool, but we think you should try Quake Live for free before you pay to download it for your 360

Remember when first-person shooters were all about shooting? That’s what we love about Quake Live, the no frills, free-to-play, ultra old school shooter that’s all about rocket jumping and blasting away at everything in sight. Seriously. It’s great, and it’s right here.

But if your trigger finger is telling you that you must only play Quake multiplayer on a console, Quake Arena Arcade will be coming to Xbox LIVE on December 15...

Quake Arena Xbox 360 footage is part old, part new, all awesome

Never let it be said that skimming retail and certification lists isn't serious investigative journalism. A couple of days ago I told you that a console version of Quake 3 Arena was likely gearing up for imminent release, as evidenced by an Australian certification page. And now we have two pieces of video evidence of that very game running. The system works!

Both appearing on Youtube, and both corroborated by a retweet from the game's Twitter feed, the first is from an earlier build and the second is from a nearly final version. Click over and watch them. Tell me what you think. You'll excuse me if I don't join you though. The booze fallout from last night's Games Media Awards means that a second watch of something as fast and dizzying as Quake is likely to kill me.

Quake 3 on consoles finally looking imminent, insert "LOL, crappy controllers" comment here

Some games just will not die. Thanks to the wonder of ports, re-releases, download sales and rabid fan communities, certain titles remain part of the gaming landscape long after their original release window. Some deserve it, and some are Mortal Kombat II, but thankfully Quake 3 Arena is one of the former. And now, three years after the 360 port's announcement in 2007, it looks like id's masterful multiplayer shooter will finally be arriving on home consoles.

Which of course prompts old PC Quake snobs like myself to point accusingly at the console controllers I ordinarily love and lambast them with cruel, cruel laughter.

HAHA! STUPID ANALOGUES! HAHAHA! Etc. Ahem.
