Will it be possible to play using Open Arena? Open Arena is a Quake III mod that is compatible with most official Quake II servers, and is open source + free :)

P.S. Anyone gotten in to the Quake Live or Boxee betas yet?
The following link is to a Q3A version switch in case there are any problems joining the server. Also includes a brief article & chart to let you know if you are encountering a certain problem which version to switch to. IDK if it can switch old versions to newer releases but if the the server is running Q3A v1.31 and you have Q3A v1.32 and the server gives you a Protocol 67 msg then flip the switch. I know this is wordy but just want to make sure everyone is clear this isn't some warez liink just a tool that will allow all versions on 1 server.

When you have Q3 running, press the tilde key and it'll say what version it is at the bottom of the console. If it doesn't say 1.32 then go download the update. It's not that big a deal, and why would you want to run an old version anyway?
Heh, oldschool? The Doom2 deathmatch scene is still thriving, check it out.
