It's such a simple question, with an even simpler answer. Why does Call of Duty get into the news regarding modern war games whilst the like of Killzone does not? Because Call of Duty appeals to the larger mass, the lowest common denominator. It is the same for Doom, it is far more known compared to Quake, although that’s saying something since Quake’s fan base is not small. So it is predictable that given a blank board of white to draw upon Quake 5 and what may be, the masses, the lowest common denominator bases their ideas upon what appeals to them the most, Doom. By this regards, Quake falls below Doom slightly, which means Quake is slightly better than Doom, just as Killzone is much better than cod, and trout is better than cod and thus, because Heretic has even less notoriety than Quake, it makes itself the best FPS game of the era, Doom to Unreal. However, Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II is still my favourite game of all time and Unreal is still the greatest in many aspects, Quake 2 is still my favourite war FPS and Quake is still a superb game although it fails to stand up against the best.
