I think one word is sufficient to describe the vehicle levels of the game boring. I guess it would be in order to mention the vehicles. All this really makes you feel like you're a part of the game, a quality rarely seen in FPS games. For instance, teammates ducking behind crates as you open a door, or enemies finding cover in between shots. The AI is pretty good, nothing special, but also nothing that would irritate you. Some providing pure firepower, and some healing you or replenishing your armor. Of course to fully enjoy the multiplayer experience, a high speed broadband connection is essential.ДЄnother fun thing is that a large portion of the game will be fought side by side with other marines. An interesting fact is that few of the maps are remakes of old Quake 2 & 3 maps such as 'The longest yard' and so on. Not much deviation from the fast paced game style we saw in Quake 3. The multiplayer portion of the game is pretty basic. And just as your sanity is to be lost forever, you are rescued by fellow marines. Such as a huge needle piercing your chest, a saw hacking off your legs, and mechanical legs nailed in with brute efficiency. As if that wasn't enough, there is another marine in line in front of you, and before it's your turn, you see everything that awaits you. Imagine lying helplessly on a moving table, waiting in line for the dreadful Strogg machinery to find its way into your body and mind. Probably the most memorable moment in the game is your Stroggification. Of course, I should mention the weapon that most gamers remember Quake by the Rail gun accurate and deadly as always. Ranging from a simple machinegun, through a rocket launcher, grenade launcher, a nasty looking nailgun, all the way to a dark matter gun which consumes everything in its path a BFG with a different name.

and aware of the entire processДЄs this is an FPS, I guess I should mention the arsenal at your disposal. Not all the environments in the game are dark, bloody claustrophobic labs As you turn your head, you notice a human torso, still alive, and with each limb connected to a pipeline that doesn't look the least comfortable. An example if I may as you enter an improvised medical bay, the first thing you see is a fellow marine strapped to the table his chest opened widely revealing in detail all of his organs, and strange machines halfway through butchering him completely. Considering the Strogg practice cybernetic technology, which of course requires human specimens those are the kind of things you can expect to be running in to during the course of your single player campaign. blood, guts and remnants of medical experiments can hardly be called beautiful. The environments in the game are gorgeous, well, gorgeously made anyway. The graphics are based on an improved Doom 3 engine, which work pretty well, even if the hardware demands are borderline astronomic. well, almost, since you get rescued just before they insert you with some sort of chip which eliminates any and all brain functions. An interesting twist in the game is when you are captured by the Strogg, and forced into their service. It is your duty to rendezvous with the rest of your squad, and in doing so you venture deep into the Strogg stronghold and, as it usually is with these types of games, witness horrors beyond your imagination. After a rather messy landing, you find yourself in the trenches on Strogg, surrounded by enemy fire and packed together with only a handful of survivors from the assault.

You, Mathew Kane, have only recently been added to Rhino squad, and immediately transported to the surface of the planet. In the meantime, a battle rages high above the toxic clouds of Strogg as the human marine corps try to send a final and devastating blow to the Strogg. A lone marine kills the Strogg leader and flees in an escape pod. The game starts at the exact same moment where Quake 2 leaves off. Will it be a worthy successor to the multiplayer franchise called Quake 3? Will it be a failure like so many games before? Well, the answer is staring me in the face as I write this, and it is a good one. When Quake 4 was announced, there was a lot of skepticism involved considering its release. Computer technology has thrived, and with it, the gaming industry as well. We now go approximately 10 years forward. can you feel the powah? Can you feel it!?ДЄnother blast from the past is the Electro cannon, looking good as always This sequel, the fourth in line, leaves almost nothing to be desired. A steady and interesting singleplayer campaign complemented by a fast paced and well balanced multiplayer assured its future in the years to come. Id software's Quake was one of the first FPS's to hit the market and it was more than well accepted. A game such as this needs no special introduction.
