No doubt about it, this game feels like a very bad copy of Quake 2, almost exactly like Quake 2, I know this game continuo where Quake 2 ends, but hello, this game came out now 8 years after! It can be much more better than this! Almost the same enemies, -no variation at all. Even on the levels, isn't either no variation here to. The only thing how is better is ofcourse the graphic how has the wonderful Doom 3 engine. The AI on the enemies and your squad sucks: and when you talk with someone of your own squad he don't even look at you if you doesn't stand right front of him. I'm very disappointed, I thought this game would be great, but it's bad. It's like I have throw away my money. Doom 3 is so much better! Doom 3 has a much better variation on the enemies, (and they doesn't disappear after they die, like "smoke" wich Quake IVs enemies does) and it has much better story to. On all things; Doom 3 is a much better game than Quake IV is. It's sad; that Id Software gave "away" this game to Raven Softwares hands. All the other Quake games, I call it "The great Quake trilogy" are great and amazing games. I have already passed half of Quake IV and it makes me sick, okay I haven't clear it yet but my first impression says enough. I either play Quake 2 again than this game. I can compare Quake IV and Quake 2 with two movies; Terminator 2 and Terminator 3, T2 is one of the best movies ever and T3 is only a pale copy of T2, with almost the same story, but much worse than T2. Quake 2 is one of the best shoot em up games ever, and Quake IV is only a worse copy with som up-mixed upgraded graphic. Quake IVs first half is a pale boring copy of Doom 3 and Qauke 2. It feels like I already have played this game years ago, and isn't feel new at all.
What can I say? It is truly a fun FPS to play. The game looks splendid and 3x better looking than Doom 3. The textures look very good and characters models are done very well. The smoke effects from a fire after an explo... Read Full Review
Built on Doom 3's technology, I expected this game to be very much like its counterpart. And it is, but more fine tuned. The graphics are arguably the best ever made. The gameplay is excellent, your enemies are tough, an... Read Full Review
