Game Revolution
"Looks almost as good as its PC brother, the only real difference being screen resolution, which can't be helped. The game is playing on your T.V., for God's sake" Review by Shawn Sparks with score [A-].
GamePro
"The fledgling SegaNet kicks into high gear with one of the best first person shooters ever for the PC. We check out all possible play modes to find out if the Dreamcast can handle it." Review by Kilo Watt.
GameSpot
[9.4/10] Reviewed by Jeff Gerstmann. "All things considered, Quake III Arena is a must-have for Dreamcast owners - provided that they also purchase a mouse and keyboard."
Gaming Age
"With over 30 warriors to choose from, and over 30 maps, this game will take a while to get old. No matter how you play this game though, you're sure to have a blast." Review by Brian Peterson with score [A-].
The Boise Idaho Statesman
[5/5] Review with screen shots by Michael Deeds. "Because of its straightahead shooter mentality, Quake III Arena is a mindlessly rewarding adventure whether you play it for two minutes or two hours."
