I preferred Quake 2 in the day, and I STILL occasionally hop on a server every now and then, though the only ones with activity are overseas so ping times suck.  But the Unreal series was more interesting in where they took their design.  iD made great engines, but were quite conservative in gameplay and design.  The levels were rarely "out there" the way the Unreal levels were.
