Dale: What the benchmark measures is how well the processor/graphics card combo handles eye candy. During actual game play A.I. kicks in and clobbers P4 performance.

Not really. Q3 is, almost exclusively, a multiplayer game and thus does not have an advanced AI. There is the physics engine, of course, but I believe that is fully contained in the recorded demos as well. But this is certainly a valid point for many other 3D games.
