Making a world-wide scan with The All-Seeing Eye, I got 966 servers and 662
players right now. More people are playing later the evening.

that certainly beats the hard core few of about two dozen that are still
playing Shogo! ;-P

I think there are probably a few thousand still playing Quake2 somewhere!

Well, maybe.
When I got the monster-PC for Quake 4, I'm sure that I will also have a look
at Doom 3.

Considering ther possible requirements for Q4, D3 will easily run with an
average 200 FPS in full quality and high resolution on this machine. =8^)

Updated your server lists lately? I usually use ASE, but I dusted off my
old Gamespy(not Arcade) v2.1.9 and only got 62 players. When I updated
servers I got almost 150.
