Quake moved to #1 from #3 this week on the World Charts Download
Top 40 Games, with the new shareware release! Folks on the alt.games.apogee
newsgroup are looking grim as Quake with 486 points, has finally toppled
Duke Nukem 3D with only 432 points. They may be launching a concerted
effort to try to regain the #1 spot.
Thousands of game players vote every week to determine the
Download Top 40 Games and the Commercial Top 100 Games. Everyone is
