I watched the first film you posted & have to say that a lot of work was obviously put into this. However, it appears that all of it was done in DOOM 3? Not sure what why they include Q3 in this project. Anyway, it's good film making imo but parents should be warned about the dirty language. Probably PG-13 by USA standards. Thanks for sharing Pardner.

Here is a quote from their website

Arenas is an animated fan show based upon the works of master game designers, Id Software. It brings to life the iconic characters from the Quake 1, Quake 2, Quake 3 Arena, and Doom universes by writing their custom stories in a detail that has never been explored until now.


Looks like they just mix it up a bit. The videos Pardner posted are definitely Quake characters but in Doom settings. Pretty sweet..

well Doom3 engine = Quake4 engine right? I almost wonder if they are rendering everything themselves. (like the rest of your animated movies e.g. Sheik, etc) there is also this video which I did not post before:

<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ho9TmMKb67g&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ho9TmMKb67g&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

I think its great how they play on some of the ironic things from Q3: teleportals, rocket jumping, defrag, the gestures, and writing on the wall with the lightning gun.
