  1. QIII's smooth 360-degree graphics and chilling sound effects succeed in completely immersing the player in its bizarre kill-or-be-killed world.
  2. Those who haven't already bought a copy of it should promptly have their heads examined.
  3. Don't expect depth, merely an ongoing rush of a pure gaming high. Bliss!
  4. The DC controller's scheme is only adequate, and the number of pauses that occur during online play is too many.

    This game is ok but not great. The single person games are really boring, you just run around trying to kill people which is extremely easy. Once you get into multiplayer the characters go paper thin!! Collapse
