Quake was a reason for me to get a PC next to my Amiga system, the game offered a new more complex 3D gaming experience than what was available before. Later I upgraded my pentium PC with a 3DFX graphics board and loved the 3DFX patch available for Quake which greatly improved the game's visuals.
BTW with regard to most next gen discussions sound often seems under-appreciated, the PS3 is able to output superior 7.1 surround sound, Blu-Ray offers enough space and is fast enough to stream the uncompressed data from disc.
