Quake III - Arenas

Quake 3 Arenas is a series of animated fan films made by Joe Goss that adds an in-depth plot to the Quake III Arena game. The main character is the Doomguy who, unlike in the original Doom games, now talks.

Arenas: The Webisodes
The Story Arenas is a webcast show based on the popular first person shooters by Id Software: Doom, Quake, Quake 2, and Quake III Arena. With a diligent team of fans and Joe Goss, founder of Tritin Films, Arenas' first season came to life in 11 internet webisodes. Following the main character, Doom, the story begins as our beloved hero from the early 90's fps hit, sits out a punishment assignment on the Mars moon - Phobos. As hell rides a teleport into his world, the artists cleverly bring back to life the characters of Doom 1 in a fun killing frenzy for the new generation of graphics.

Moving on, Doom finds himself in true danger as his own kind betray him. Cieling his fate with talks of experiments, Doom fights for his life. As his end nears, the Vadrigar rapture him away (in the same manner we see Sarge abducted in the intro movie to Quake III Arena). The story from here is pure Arena carnage as Doom faces off against his first opponent, Visor, and continues to score both enemies and allies in his adventure to escape. These include Ranger, Grunt, Mynx, Sarge, Gorre, Visor, and Xaero.
